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. 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 became 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. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

final collection archive copy ... perfect!

A BEAUTIFUL TOP COPY ...FACTORY SEALED!!! Never Opened / Never Played 

Never or rarely seen in this UNPLAYED condition, for it's rarely seen in ANY condition....

Original 1972 first pressing of a solid underground prog psych collectible...recommemded for those into early Dionysos, or any of the great "Krautrock" etc stuff from early '70s.

Excellent psych/prog from Quebec Canada by the mysterious Champignons, translated to THE MUSHROOMS. The 1972 release of their highly innovative album opens with the 11:30-mins centrepiece that's worth the price you need to pay >>> The "Haunted Castle" a plodding creepy tune that is loaded with spooky sound effects to create its graveyard aura; especially with the nearly cookie-monster-like spoken vocals. The sinister feel is convincing, and the searing guitar and spellbinding beat gives an otherworldly feel.......Other highlights include "Folies Du Mercredi" being their wildest and most adventurous track, changing constantly climates and rhythms with excellent organ solo two-thirds in that adds much drama, as does the sizzling fuzz guitar. Great stuff!


For many years now the very rare "Premiere Capsule" Lp has been a sought highly priced (costly) collectible, rated very highly by late '60s/ early '70s fans. Champignons, were a tight and experimental band from the Quebec Canada underground scene. Their only '72 Lp "Premiere Capsule", resplendent in its trippy day-glo mushroom sleeve, is a succession of seven guitar driven original compositions that manage to maintain any incredibly high standard from start to finish. All the tracks are superb, but several in particular stand out including the above mentioned 11-minute experimental jam, "The Haunted Castle" and two instrumental numbers, "Folies Du Mercredi" and "Pop-Pino." There is extremely good fuzz guitar throughout, as well as some exceptional interplay by the talented musicians. The lp will appeal to both fans of psychedelic & progressive as well as those into the old underground rock sound...
