PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. 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 and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI 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. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP $4.00 Media; 2-4 discs $5.00; .50 each additional disc Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

1970 Hardrock From The UK
With STEVE MARRIOT & PETER FRAMPTON
HUMBLE PIE
ROCK ON
USA - (WHITE LABEL PROMO) A&M - SP 4301
MINTY VINYL...advance release WHITE LABEL PROMOTIONAL 1970 first press in thick gatefold cover of the 1970..."ROCK ON" LP that projected Humble Pie to another level, resulting in their rise to stardom...even though they were still rated as a lesser known UK underground band, it is one of their best works...led by the outrageous guitarist/shouting singer Steve Marriot (ex-Small Faces) and the then unkown Peter Frampton
Obviously Humble Pie were performing at the top of their game here, just not yet "discovered", delivering classy hard rock reminiscent of Led Zeppelin especially, and also bringing vaguely to mind bands like the earliest UFO or the already dismantled Jeff Beck Group with Rod Stewart; power in the Peter Frampton's guitar, and the perfect Steve Marriott's voice & guitar, in cuts like the opening 'Shine on', a free-form version of Muddy Waters' 'Rollin' Stone' or the spectacular 'Stone cold'.
"Rock on", is a charming hard rock album, the guitar job by Peter Frampton is just brilliant, and the rhythm section by drummer Jerry Shirley & bassist Greg Ridley is solid and enticing, while Steve Marriott, seems to have swallowed Robert Plant's Zeppelin go-for-broke vocals.
'79th And Sunset', 'Strange Days' or the more acoustic 'A Song For Jenny' should be added to the quality stuff in "Rock On", a fine album by this then under-rated act.
CONDITION: The cover is a thick gatefold VG+(+) with no more than very slight shelf wear starting virtually less wear than found on most surviving copies (the cover did not wear well)...the back cover with group photos is excellent clean...tiny bb promo drill at top left...altogether solid collectible look. No split seams, no bends, no writing
The vinyl is all clean and smooth M- play grade is outstanding with no audio problem. Both WHITE PROMO labels are clean
keeper copy!
A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTIBLES!
