Great Us softpsych LP. With some nice fuzzguitars too. Getting hard to find. Here is what Acid Archives has to say:

"This is one of the better Beatles-inspired US pop/psych albums. It’s a short album (ten brief songs), but still has a bunch of variety and melodic ideas to spare. Lots of sitar, some great fuzz guitar, even gypsy violins and calypso beats. A few good-timey songs at the end of side one may annoy some, but they’re good for what they are, and the rest is even better. Great cover, too."

Cover: Unipak cover have some wear around all edges, corners are a bit bumped. Slight ringwear at bottom of both front and back. Cut out hole in upper left corner. The glue has slipped at the upper seam, but could easily be reglued. VG+.

Record: Disc is very nice with just a couple of hairlines that does not affect play. Strong VG++.

General information: Hi folks! Up for auction this week is a bunch of nice rare and very rare psych, beat and folk LP’s from around the world. Most of these I got on a consignment deal from a dealer friend of mine. All are in my possession and have been visually AND play graded. All records with a opening price higher than $70, has been played from start to end (sometimes more than once). All other records has been played to detect the overall audiable standart, any problem areas like obvious schratches etc has been played, in order to check out how bad they sound, but they might not have been played from start to end.

Please check out them all, many of these you will not see again for quite a while, so grab them now you got the chance. Reasonable opening prices and NO reserve.

As far as I can tell, these are all original first prints, unless otherwise stated. But I must admit that I am not familiar with all of these myself. I have tried to be accurate with my description, without being pedantic. If you need more information, like full track list, matrix number, additional photos etc please mail me, and I will try to help as good as I can. If you have any questions, or if you have knowledge about any of these that you feel should be stated in my description, please let me know, and I will add or correct.

Grading: VERY IMPORTANT!!! Please read my description of the record. That should give you the best picture of the condition of the disc, unlike just a grade that could be anything really. I do grade very conservative, I intend to use GOLDMINE standards for grading, I don’t use M or EX as grade, best grade being M-, followed by VG++, VG+, VG, VG-, G+, G, G-.

I have tried to be as accurate with my description instead of just giving a grade, as it seems that a M- record to some is a VG record to others and vice versa!!

I usually use the frases hairlines, scuffs and scratch. Anything that could be felt with a fingernail is a scratch. Hairlines is thin lines not to be felt with a nail, almost every record has these thin lines from being pulled in and out of paper innerbags. Scuffmarks are usually bigger marks on the surface, but still not feelable with a nail.

If in doubt please mail me and I’ll help you the best I can.

All records are guaranteed, if you are not satisfied, you get your money back (except postage).

Shipping and Postage: All records will be very well packed in cardboard mailers, with records outside covers (unless sealed). Postage at actual cost, but the Danish postal service are a bunch of thiefs, please see table below. I can not recommend unregistered letters, as they are not insured and impossible to track if lost. Registred letters are insured up to $150, full insurance for more expensive items is extra. I am working at strange hours and long shifts, so it’s not always possible for me to ship immediately after payment arrives. Shippings will be made AT LEAST once a week.
