Covers graded first. All records are stereo original 1st pressings unless otherwise stated.
Charlatans - Same (Philips US 69) VG/ VG+ 35 NEW!!!
One of the original San Francisco psychedelic bands with a rootsy bent, their debut LP didn't appear until 1969 meaning they never got their due as innovators. Great LP and quite undervalued, mixing marijuana Americana, psych, folk and blues. Has a few small marks that cause a little noise, but mostly plays great. Sleeve has top splitting about 6" in from front and tape residue in same place. Has a small deletion hole in middle.
Free Pop Electronic Concept - A New Exciting Experience (Palette NL 69) VG++/ EX 75
Wondering what to stick on at your next space age acid mod party? Look no further. Tight funky mod grooves with some wild guitar all smothered with mental outer space electronic effects bloops and bleeps. Like a groovier Pierre Henry and actually gets very intense, almost Velvets like on F.P.E.T. No. 1. Lovely Dutch original with fully laminated sleeve, just shy of EX due to dirt at bottom left back corner and a bit of laminate lift. Record has one minor mark, plays EX.
Neil Harrison - All Dressed Up With Nowhere To Go (Deram UK 74) EX/ M- 65 NEW!!!
Stunning copy of under the radar heavily Beatles influenced early 70s pop rock wonder on collectible label. Lovely baroque arrangements and imaginative songwriting makes this a bit of a lost classic. Looks like it hasn't been owned/played, amazing copy.
Tina Harvey - Same (UK Records UK 73) VG++/M- 20
Top copy of this bad girl’s great only LP, with a real mix of stuff from funk to soul to folk to fuzzed up dance floor smashers. Cover just has the beginnings of a little ring wear, vinyl looks unplayed
The Carolyn Hester Coalition - Same (Pye UK 69) EX/EX 45
Lovely UK first pressing of this psych/sunshine folk pop classic, close to M- for both record and sleeve.
Charlatans - Same (Philips US 69) VG/ VG+ 30
Philamore Lincoln – The North Wind Blew South (Epic US 70) VG/VG++ 40
US only LP by this Brit and a mini-masterpiece of baroque psych pop and harder edged rockers. Sleeve shows ring wear and wear to edges, but no splits. Vinyl very nice, just one or two very light non-sounding scuffs.
Keith Mansfield - All you need is… (CBS UK 68) VG/VG+ 20
Some top funky big beat, big band, mod movers from Keith on thid one including great Hammond heavy versions of Soul Thing, Moanin’ and his own Boogaloo. Many other highlights though, with swinging takes on other top tunes. Sleeve has some staining on the reverse and undulation due to having possibly been damp at some point. Vinyl has superficial marks.
Annette Peacock - I'm The One (RCA UK 72) EX/EX 75 NEW!!!
Avant/ funk/ jazz/ rock wonder with mad moog/electronics all over, a bit like if 50 Foot Hose made an LP in '72. Rare UK pressing with laminated front in really nice condition.
Primitives - Blow-Up (Piper Club It 67) VG+/F 15
1st press of fantastic mod/soul/freakbeat LP by Brit band only released in Italy at the time. Pretty rare, vinyl quite marked and unfortunately has some skips so a filler copy. Sleeve looks pretty nice, small tear on back cover.
Pulse - Same (Major Minor UK 68) VG+/VG+ 50 RESERVED!
Heavy acid rock beast with swamp blues underpinnings. Scarce UK pressing which has minor faults, gerneral wear to sleeve, some marks on vinyl, looks nice and plays well with a little occasional niose.
Quicksilver Messenger Service - Same (Capitol UK 68) Mono VG/VG 30 NEW!!!
Rare UK only mono pressing of first wave San Fran psych classic and easily their best in my opinion. Plays really well, some clicks between tracks one and two, otherwise plays with only odd bit of noise. Sleeve has light general wear, some creasing to the laminateand a laminate bubble bottom right.
Rugbys - Same (Exit Sp 69) VG++/ VG++ 30
Spanish issue of their Hot Cargo LP with a unique sleeve design and a great mixture of rock, power pop and garage psych, a bit similar to The Nazz. Front laminated sleeve has light general wear, record looks pretty nice, a few occasional clicks here and there.
Various Artists - Times Of Strange Days Past (Blue Men On White Bicycles 1967–1970) (Top Sounds UK 25) + booklet M/M 19 NEW!!!
Amazing comp of unreleased UK psych acetate only tunes, with some real top level gems. A collection like this needs to be celebrated and cherished, as unfortunately it's very unlikely we will ever see another UK 45s comp of this quality again. Beautifully made, this also sounds amazing given the source material, it is a work of art that treats these almost extinct artefacts with respect and love. Limited to 500 copies, we have a very limited number direct from the label.
Martha Velez - Fiends And Angels (London UK 69) VG/ EX 40
Funky fiery rock/ blues/ R'n'B with the cream of Brit musicians backing up, including Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce and Brian Auger. Nice vinyl, sleeve front is fine, back has a couple of small sticker tears and residue.
Woody Kern - The Awful Disclosures Of Maria Monk (Pye UK 69) VG/ VG++ 45 RESERVED!
Their only LP and a fascinating mixture of psych, prog and blues with some jazzy moves. Sleeve has general wear, some laminate creasing, bit worn on reverse and a 3 inch split right side of bottom seam. Vinyl looks pretty good, light signs of use only, nothing significant and it plays really well. It's a long LP, close to an hour, so had to be pressed at low volume wih means it needs to be in decent condition to be enjoyed. So, tattyish sleeve, nice vinyl. Unfortunately, each side is too long to upload to Youtube so had to cut a track from each side.
