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!

This album defines the Chocolate Watchband with a unique tracking selection, different from any of their other albums AND containing great vintage group cover photo and history liner notes on the backside ...
The Chocolate Watchband, one of the most popular garage/punk legends, here with a nice selection of raw high energy grooves straight from the garage, circa 1966 1967 ... the pleasure of this album lies in the tracking order, a concise flow of nugget after nugget, centering on their explosive garage snarl...
This Northern California garage punk powerhouse were one of the finest exponents of English influenced R & B, and on a good day, even gave The Rolling Stones a run for their money. The sneering vocals of Dave Aguilar were complemented by Mark Loomis (guitar), Sean Tolby (guitar), Bill Flores (bass) and Gary Andrijasevich (drums). Spotted by legendary producer and songwriter Ed Cobb, the man who also developed The Standells sound, their first release was a cover of Davie Allen's Blue's Theme, released under the name The Hogs. The first release under their own name was a classic slice of Ed Cobb. Sweet Young Thing (1966) was a searing, evil slab of raw, powerful R & B, with Aguilar's vocals a stand-out. Their debut album No Way Out featured the soon-to-be garage standard, Let's Talk About Girl's (1967), though Cobb decided to replace Aguilar's raw vocal track with the more dulcet tones of session singer Don Bennett. This kind of producer and label involvement caused disharmony in the group and soon members were coming and going with increased regularity. However, Cobb kept the group's name alive, releasing the album The Inner Mystique (1968), featuring a whole slew of studio musicians, though the album did contain excellent versions of The Kinks' I'm Not Like Everybody Else and Bob Dylan's It's All Over Now Baby Blue. A final album One Step Beyond (1969) again seemed to be the producer's vehicle though it did feature Aguilar's terrific track Don't Need Your Lovin'. The groups influence seemed to grow and grow as the years passed, finding new audience's and fans generation after generation.
