THE CELLARMEN: I Found You/Then I Made a Wish (Jody A-9004-B/1968?)
Local NYC garage band that featured vocalist Paul Caravello ak Eric Carr of KISS. The singel was released on the song-poem/vanity label Jody, best known for an earlier release by Hasil Adkins. Was this a song-poem release? It's hard to say; it definitely has some of those elements. The lyrics are "sendus your poems and we'll put the mto music" quality. The music has a mid-60's garage/ mod a-go-go sound at times, particularly in the occasional guitar licks and gushing organ fills that dominate. However, in a typical song-poem fashion, the verses are punctuated with brief horn (trumpet?) riffs. The vocals have a fat song-poem trying to incorparoate a little blue-eyed soul vibe.
Then I Made a Wish is the more uptempo side and is highlighted by a heavy distorto-fuzz solo.
The record is VG+. There is a moderate amount of light blemishing and several patches of light hariline marks. There are no deep or feelable scratches. Both sides play through without any heavy pops or noise, just some occasional light crackle.
See my other auctions for more garage and psych 45s. Lots of good fuzz to be heard here.
Some sounds will be added early in the week.
GENERAL INFO
SHIPPING: Shipping costs will be quoted based on cost for estimated weight plus $1.00 to cover most of the cost of packing materials.
All records are packed in in between two cardboard filler pads and shipped in professional cardboard mailing boxes. All unsealed 12" records are taken out of their covers to prevent seam splitting. If there is a custom inner sleeve, the record will be put in a separate white inner. If a 7" record comes in a picture sleeve, the same procedure is followed.
GRADING: I grade records both visually and audibly. As grading is so imprecise and subjective, I don't have a set grading description like you see listed in many auction and collector magazines. My grades for records and covers are based on the overall conditions I describe in each auction; I will note any visual defects and (for the vinyl) any non-musical sounds (pops, clicks, skips, etc.).
