  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. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance 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. 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 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 and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI 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: ((SEE POSTED RATES))   Discount shipping on multiple RECORDS in same order. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

STILL FACTORY SEALED   ... HEAR THE MUSIC  BELOW:::

Never opened limited edition 2nd-press from several years ago, heard from one source there were only 100 pressed, another source says 500 pressed, either way, it's long long gone:::

There’s one thing about energy: it cannot be destroyed or created, only transferred. And it must have seemed for a few years in the late seventies when this band was alive and ever-kicking that the ‘Total Energy thing’ that once resided within The MC5 had come to roost in the carpet bombing qualities of Sonic’s Rendezvous Band. Together for less than three years, they released only ONE song during their all-too short and unsigned existence: “City Slang. x-"Up" Gary Rasmussen’s bass and x-"Stooges" Scott “Rock Action” Asheton’s bass/drum clunk the intro, but when “Sonic” Smith and Scott Morgan’s rhythms jump in, the rest of the track pulsates into circuit-blowing powerdrive for the duration of the single. At several points the energy levels just seem to rise and rise as Smith’s choppy, blistery riffing over lyrics that still confound to this day. It’s a full, sonic wall of sound and they’re tearing ass at full tilt into one of the highest of Detroit anthems ever. “Sonic” never seems to run out of those mountain climbing buzz-sawing riffs, and Rock Action’s drumming is a half-filled cereal box being shaken and miked through a Marshall Major cabinet into a near-seamless noise rhythm. Yeah, ‘seamless’ is a word that comes closest to defining the tight but loose action of Sonic’s Rendezvous Band. And Smith’s solo during the coda just builds and builds, ever spiraling, into a transcendental, kicking ass across the sky in sheer abandonment of everything -- except energy. And energy in all its forms obviously found Fred “Sonic” Smith an attractive and utterly reliable conduit.
