Description

Jackpine Savage -- Together LP

(a participation musical-concept album for all children)

Original 1971 US stereo release on Dimension 5 Records (catalog # D 151, original silver labels).

Classic 1971 release on Bruce Haack's Dimension 5 label only this time he's going it under the peculiar pseudonym of Jackpine Savage, joined by Esther Nelson. Quoting Jackpine, "This album will help you get it together - and probably every member of your family will tune in - together........ Play this album on stereo equipment. The spaced out movement from speaker to speaker is important. Sometimes listen with earphones at moderate volume - you never know what you might discover." haha! My favorite track is "Rain of the Earth", which has a trippy Syd Barrett feel. The song is introduced as "Well, this is a science fiction song about Children from another galaxy who had set their controls for the heart of the sun and ended up on our planet." The song that follows sounds like Pink Floyd's "See Saw." This is an excellent experimental psych album and quite rare to boot, with crazy spaced out panning synth sounds, Musique concrète cuts, pre-industrial analog electronics, beats and psychedelic lyrics... parts of this record actually sound like The Residents.

For anyone interested in the psychedelic children's music movement that Bruce Haack helped develop along with Raymond Scott (which still has a powerful effect on the development and playfulness of children's music), or if you are interested in the early electronically-laced pop works of people like Curt Boettcher, Joe Meek or Brian Wilson in the 1970s, definitely check out the mini masterpiece that is Jackpine Savage's Together.

Tracks:

    A1 Maybe This Song A2 Touch A3 Rain Of Earth A4 O.K. Robot A5 Colors A6 Intermission B1 Funky Little Song B2 Abracadabra B3 Punching Bag B4 Right On B5 Outermission

CONDITION: Cover G / Vinyl VG+   ex-library copy which has been very professionally bound inside a heavy-duty library gatefold sleeve with double-reinforcement... the cover has been split in half in order to fit into the gatefold, there's a sticker on front and a little writing on back, the outside of the sleeve (NOT the cover) has been reinforced with black tape; vinyl has some light wear and a bit of scuffing, plays pretty well with a bit of surface noise audible at the start of each side and in a few quiet spots; labels have a little writing on one side and stamps on both.

Graded conservatively using Goldmine standards [G / G+ / VG / VG+ / NM / ]
grade only used if record is brand new.
Bid with confidence -- over 15000 positive feedbacks selling vinyl on eBay since 1998, with a total 14-year average of 100% positive. NOTE: shipping is a little higher than normal for this LP because of the oversized and heavy hard plastic sleeve it's in. If you want me to just ship the cover and vinyl, without the heavy outer sleeve, the shipping would cost less (it would be the normal rate for one LP.)

Shipping And Payment Info

Vinyl can be shipped worldwide via any method.
I will combine shipping. Winners of multiple items save substantially on shipping costs.

Within the US: Media Mail shipping is calculated automatically based on weight. NOTE: Media Mail can be S-L-O-W sometimes, especially to the West Coast. Media Mail delivery time is usually anywhere from 4 to 10 days, but occasionally it takes 2 weeks or even longer to reach the West Coast from here. Please consider this potential delay before you decide to go with Media Mail instead of Priority Mail.

Priority Mail is a highly recommended option for all vinyl, it's a lot faster and much more secure -- I double-box (and sometimes triple-box) all LP's shipped via Priority Mail. Cost is reasonable and calculated based on your zip code.

Shipping costs include delivery confirmation for all US orders.

    Combine shipping with other items: The cost of each extra item is calculated automatically based on weight: if you want to add a record or CD to your order the cost is less than $1, usually around 50 cents per extra item depending on total weight.

Outside the US: shipping is calculated automatically based on your country and the weight of the record. IMPORTANT: Priority Mail International and Express Mail International are the only services which provide tracking. First Class Mail International is normally a very reliable service, but it does not provide tracking so if you choose First Class Mail International you agree not to hold me responsible in the unlikely event of loss or damage to the package -- please review my 14 years of 15000+ positive feedbacks if you have any concerns, and contact me for more details.
    Combine shipping with other items: If you want to add a normal-weight record (7", 12", or LP) or CD to your order the cost is reasonable, usually not more than $3.99 per extra item, often less, depending on total weight.

All records are packaged securely, protected by both stiff and cushion packaging, with vinyl (in original innersleeve) removed from cover and placed safely in poly sleeve to help prevent seam splitting during transit.

I can usually accommodate special shipping requests or special payment requirements, just ask.
