We make every effort to mail all orders out Friday of each week.

We also strive to keep our shipping and handling costs as close to actual charges as reasonable.

Please pay your current invoice within five days of auctions ending and IF YOU REQUEST we will hold your order and reflect a shipping discount for each additional order shipped together in the same parcel.

Most importantly, we appreciate your business.
SCARCE 1969 HARD PROG Original !
BRAINBOX
...USA - (lime green) CAPITOL -
SCARCE ...ORIGINAL 1969 first pressing promotional in clean condition (see below) ...on the old lime green Capitol label that was a limited edition label...for instance this Brainbox album was only pressed one time...that's it.
BRAINBOX features a predominately hard rock sound on a number of blues style cuts A fairly strong effort by this late 60's Dutch band which featured Jan Akkerman and Cyril Havermans who were better known as members of Focus. Brainbox is nothing like either one of those bands and is a hard rock band similar to Golden Earring of that era. Vocalist Kaz Lux sounds like a cross between Mountain's Leslie West and Deep Purple's Ian Gillian which if you were ever curious to hear how those bands would do "Scarborough Fair" or "Summertime", Brainbox gives you a pretty good representation. The best tracks on this album would be the powerful opener "Dark Rose" which features classic Jan Akkerman guitar work and the epic side long 17 minute "SEA OF DELIGHT" with the early progressive twists and turns. Overall an interesting find for rock history buffs.
