• INFO:  Originally released on the A.C.P. label out of Jacksonville, the Illusions' I Know is a great upbeat song with syncopated shouts of "Hey!", swirling 'farfisa' organ , good vocals and harmonies , with straight ahead drumming and a insistent bass drum pattern. Picked up for release by Columbia, it reached #3 on the charts of Orlando radio station WLOF in August of 1966. It was written by by the band: Rob Gardner on organ, Jim Williams guitar, Skip Hewett bass, and Tim Touchton on drums. The flip is Take My Heart, a softer and lighter vocal original by the group. According to Jeff Lemlich's Savage Lost, the band was from Palatka, about an hour's drive south of Jacksonville, and had their own TV program on local channel 12. Jeff also has noted that Isaac Guillory, the future Cryan Shames member, had previously been a member of the group, but left before the record was made. (info from Chas.

                                                                                                PACKAGING & SHIPPING

• All records are packaged in new water-resistant poly mailers and sandwiched between a double layer of cardboard. All records are sent with a generic sleeve, unless the 45 is sold with a picture sleeve. In that case, the record will be sent with a generic sleeve and separated from the picture sleeve to prevent any seam splitting. Both the record and picture sleeve will then be shipped inside of a poly sleeve.
• A shipping discount is available when buying more than one item. You can either request a quote prior to purchase, or purchase multiple items and wait for an invoice with a shipping charge for the combined items.
• Insurance is optional for U.S. shipping and the $1.75 listed on the invoice would provide coverage up to $50. If greater coverage is desired, please advise before making payment and I will send a revised invoice with the correct fee.

• I will not be able to ship items selling for over $50 by First Class Mail International since no insurance or tracking information is available with this freight option. If item value is over $50 you must select either Priority or Express Mail  International to ship your item!
• The first $100 of insurance is free when shipping via Priority Mail and even higher amount via Express Mail,  with additional insurance also available for a fee. The fee is based on the weight of the parcel and the value of the contents, so please request a quote and I will provide that information.
• Import duties, taxes and charges are the buyer's responsibility and are not included in the item price or shipping charges. Merchandise will not be marked below value or as a "gift".  

                                                                                                           PAYMENT

• Payment is expected within 7 days and if not received a friendly payment reminder will be sent. If there is still no communication after 10 days an unpaid item dispute will then be filed.
• If you purchase an item and are also bidding on another that ends 7-10 days later, please inform me. 

• I am very conservative in grading and typically listen to each record, so all items will be sold as described.  However, if you are not satisfied with an item you've purchased,  please contact me to discuss.
