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.

MALE/FEMALE POPSIKE 1968                          

STILL IN FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER FIRST PRINTING          

     THE TINGLING MOTHERS CIRCUS

                           ...USA - MUSICOR - MS 3617 

MINT!

STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER......a TOP COPY Original 1968 first pressing in old style unipack gatefold cover of a strange melodic freakbeat/popsike & flowerpower band with female and male vocals

To get an idea of what's in store, CLICK HERE: Tingling Mother's Circus - "90 Magic Wonders" & "Sky Diver"

Bands of this ilk are often touted as 'psychedelic' by dealers presumably to boost collectors' interest and while this may not be a band of head-over-heels psychedelic ramifications, TINGLING MOTHERS CIRCUS certainly has interesting aspects as a lost/buried/underground band of the late sixties. The album has a compelling quality that makes it engaging and worth listening. Guitarist Elliot Randall has a decent voice and kicks in tasty fuzz guitar ("New York Mining Disaster 1941"). Vocalist Andrea sounds like Minnie Mouse (check out her performance on the helium propelled "Sky Diver" and "Positively Negative").

Pleasant flowery swinging popsike, folk-rock-pop with occasional sound effects, fuzz guitar and in many cases may be included in the sound of "Forum," "Split Level", "Paper Garden" and Yankee Dollar ... if you like that sort of sound - Enjoy it...

CONDITION:  The cover: Still in original factory shrink wrap, it's MINT ...colorful as in '69, a nice 44 year old first pressing in old style unipack gatefold cover...no delete marks (!), no bends, no writing and no split seams...a final collection copy

The vinyl: all clean grooves, rated M- TOP COPY and plays with minty clean audio ... clean Musicor labels

keeper!
