Description

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. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us.  Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity 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. 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.  We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback.   We use an ultrasonic KLAudio 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 Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.   All Canadian and Overseas shipping ~ Please inquire about rates.

    AMAZING .... 

    Original 10 Lp Box set (20 UNRELEASED SIDES!)

  2. limited & long long gone... rare... top Zappa/Mothers collectible

    This is a 10 - LP box, with a 36-page (counting the cover) booklet called Ten Years on the Road with Frank Zappa & the Mothers of Invention (which was never sold separately?) consisting of replications of various (rare) photos, newspaper, magazine and other articles.

    The title, of course, is that of a many-LP box Zappa planned in the early '70s. It never came out...

    The front Box cover has six pictures of various Mothers line-ups from 1966-1973; the back has liner notes, song listings. Inside the box, the records are in plain white wrappers. They all have different label colors; the first two records are supposed to be dark blue and sky blue, respectively, but on some copies they are the same color. On those copies, all other records also have "The History & Collected Improvisations" and "1962-1976" printed on the labels, along with side numbers - on other copies, they just have color, no text.
