ATTENTION!

Please carefully read our entire listing to answer any questions you may have, including shipping rates; then contact us directly with any other information you may need. 

WITH MUCH APPRECIATION TO ALL OUR CUSTOMERS:  If you have a question on orders received, please contact us.  We take Customer Service seriously, and we want you to be satisfied.   When leaving Feedback, please consider the following:  eBay's policy on the 5-star rating system is anything less than a 5  reduces our standing with eBay and ultimately can affect our selling abilities if we hit 4.6 across the board.  Ridiculous, but true.

Please help us strive for 5 stars through your feedback so we may 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.  

We mail all paid orders out once a week on Fridays/Saturdays.  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 to Monday.   We strive to keep our shipping and handling costs as close to actual charges as reasonable.  We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order.  Please be aware we have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.  

 TO OUR REPEAT CUSTOMERS:  We are happy to hold orders to save on shipping.  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.   

As always, thank you for your support!

Rare 1968 Original vinyl pressing that was quickly withdrawn by Epic Records when guitarist Jimmy Page had a court injunction stop the release ...as a result a limited number of pressings were on the market, this is one of them, not a reissue or a counterfeit, but the real thing!

March 30, 1968, and the Yardbirds had come to the Lower East Side's Anderson Theatre to make what was ultimately to be their farewell concert in New York. That had fallen on evil times, this most progressive of the English rhythm 'n blues bands that had coalesced around the old Crawdaddy Club in Richmond. And now they were entering the twilight, with rumors of an imminent break-up following them wherever they would go. Gone were the screaming girls, the anguished teenyboppers who would plaster themselves all over the stage as soon as Keith Relf stepped toward the microphone; gone also were the hit singles, the flash of a Clapton or Beck, the incredibly progressive drive that was so much a part of them during the good years. All that was left was the rhythm section of McCarty/Dreja, Keith's voice and harp and a good-credentials-but-who-is-he-anyway lead guitarist named Jimmy Page.

And so, for the hordes of fans who faithfully made the pilgrimage all wondered whether or not the Yardbirds would be able to get-it -on in the way most of the remembered; like the way Clapton sort of nudged that perfect four-second break in "Here 'Tis" or all those insane stops and starts in "I'm Not Talking"; or maybe "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" which was definitely so far ahead of its time.

Well, getting the benefit of hindsight to look back at the occasion, let me tell you that you're in for one of those maniac rock 'n roll times, which you're going to carry out of that theatre and tell all your friends about, and which they're about to tell all their friends, and so on, until you have on your hands a concert which approaches legend. LEGEND!  The blues/R&B base of the band is still here, but Page steps forward in many ways. He tears up the soloing on "Train Kept A Rollin,'" lays out trippy netherworlds on "I'm Confused," demonstrates his ethereal mysticism on "White Summer," and helps to extend "I'm A Man" to the kind of macho instrumental workout the Zeppelin would partially make their name on.

The album was quickly withdrawn after Page's lawyers filed an injunction. For this reason, it is the rarest Yardbirds album.

  2. "You're A Better Man Than I"/"Heart Full of Soul"
