Description

Hanna-Barbera Records 511. This record is a little hard to explain, both its origins and its condition, but here goes:

There are rumors that this is either produced by Frank Zappa (as The Phantom) for The Chocolate Watchband (as The Hogs) masquerading (for contractual reasons as legend has it) doing a cash-in cover of the theme from "The Wild Angels" and/or that Zappa plays on the B-side (and it sure sounds like it). At least one member of the band claims there was no Zappa involvement, but the rumors persist. Could be one of the earliest Zappa-related items or it could just be a neat "garage" record, still great and still plenty collectable...

A-side is VG+ condition. The other side has some scratches, but no skips, and plays through pretty well.  So what it boils down to is this...

You have a good chance to get a nice, solid copy of an expensive rare record at what should turn out to be a reasonable price if you can't afford to buy or bid on the mint copies out there...

ATTENTION BIDDERS & BUYERS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES:

Due to the increasing number of United States Postal Service First Class International Mail packages which have been lost in the last year or so and for which I have been responsible for refunding in full , I can no longer guarantee delivery unless you choose USPS Priority International Mail service.

Priority International allows a package to be tracked inside the United States as well as in the country to which it is sent. Insurance is also available for the higher-priced items.

I will be happy to continue shipping via USPS First Class International. If you choose First Class International and the package goes missing, I will provide proof of mailing with the USPS receipt and the Customs Form number, but it will be up to the buyers to take matters up with the postal service in their countries.
