We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.  We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over +22,000 positive feedback.   We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

 FINAL COLLECTION COPY
    One look at the cover and you get the idea....
    NOTE: THIS IS THE SCARCE GATEFOLD 1971 DESIGN on the GERMAN PHILIPS LABEL ... the one to own !
The mighty Lucifer's Friend delivered this powerful "Krautrock" (first album) in 1970... the group with a career spanning a mind exploding decade of nefarious activity....
• The scarce & fragile 1971 GATEFOLD German issue is generally expensive and unlikely available in clean condition
  
•  "LUCIFER'S FRIEND" 1970 LP is a burning powerhouse ...heavy, intense, filled with killer self-penned tunes impacted by loads of gushing organ, ripping heavy guitar and an classic English vocalist who was hired to lead the great URIAH HEEP

• LUCIFER'S FRIEND were unable to ever equal this LP.... 
• Manic BOOMING John Lawton dominates the hard-psych proceedings in an album featuring the evil twins displayed on a blood splattered gatefold cover
• 
  
• Interestingly the debut Lucifer's Friend pre-dates many rock heavies that were to come, maybe to be compared by a raging DEEP PURPLE (Machine Head) era sound and dealing with disturbing topics as confusion, paranoia and doom. 
• 
  
• The album has a gloomy feel as immediate as the first vocal lines appearing: " Traveling this dark world, leavin' the Earth behind..." monster level 'Ride The Sky' gives assurance the album is gonna be intense! From cosmic opening to spooky conclusion title track, "Lucifer's Friend" features superior rock musicianship throughout ~~
    
  
•  Be ready for dominating dynamic guitar/Hammond organ interplay - turned-up loud

  CONDITION:
The cover: rated: M- TOP COPY , German Philips GATEFOLD would be hard to find better. Flat, square shiny, very lightly handled. There are no faded areas, no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing ... nice!

The vinyl: Rated: M- both sides are clean with awesome audio playback, both (black silver) German PHILIPS labels are perfect .
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
