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.

RARE & sought 1972 BRITISH laminated first pressing on the old Transtlantic label... -
========================================================================
INCLUDES the RARE custom designed group photos and Skin Alley cartoon double sided inner sleeve - VERY RARE GROUP POSTER INCLUDED
======================================================================== - The name Nick Graham may catch some collectors attention -- being from Atomic Rooster, their first album (of which Graham was bassist/flautist/vocalist). Nick Graham and Bob James (Guitars/Winds/Vocals) contribute about half the songs each, and the result is a jammy, prog-rock album that's worthy, without question. Graham's bass playing is an important component of the music, and many of the songs are based around his riffs, especially those written by him (obviously). 'Bad Words and Evil People' is a killer track, starting out with a bass riff in '7', and cool vocals from Nick, with the jammed- out second half featuring a marvellous Hammond organ solo from keyboardist Krzysztof Juszskiewicz. 'So Many People' has jagged rythms, again jammy, with a rhythmic Flute workout during the instrumental section, it's quite a groovy song, actually. 'A Final Coat' starts out softly with a lovely keys and Flute melody, which leads in to the 5/4 verse section with some tasteful organ playing followed by a screeching sax work-out from Bob James till the end. 'Graveyard Shuffle' is a weaker song, but still not bad and worthy of listening ...On side II we have 'Nick's Seven' with, you guessed it, a bass riff in '7', but it's a lively piece of music and quite appealing. Next up, 'Skin Valley Serenade' is a beautiful tune with many changes and blissful fluttering flute work, possibly the most 'colourful' moment on the record. 'So Glad' is a lesser track, with singing from BJ and a repetive melody. 'The Demagogue' has a really good feel to it, great groove - an all-round great song. That segues into 'Sun Music' to finish off the album
