Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end.

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.

ORIGINAL 1967 FIRST PRESS

NEAL FORD & THE FANATICS

\ USA - HICKORY RECORDS - LPS 141

SELDOM SEEN, always been pretty rare...was mainly distributed in TEXAS wheer the band had a big following ::::

Original 1967 first pressing of this scarce TEXAN '60s rock artifact ... in TOP SHAPE

NEAL FORD & THE FANATICS were a Houston, Texas 1960's garage band that managed to incorporate memorable melody into their song craft ...They released only this one LP on the Hickory label, along with a number of non-LP singles on Hickory and other labels. Their songs were strong and the band was tight, playing regularly at skating rinks, shopping malls and night clubs like The Catacombs and The Living Eye. It was the era of hip huggers, bell bottoms and miniskirts, and the crowds had a great time listening to the groovy sounds of
NEAL FORD & THE FANATICS!

Never really touring outside of Texas, Neal Ford & the Fanatics never had much of an impact outside of Texas but they were one of the stronger of the legions of regionally popular psychedelic/garage outfits. Never as wild as Austin's the 13th Floor Elevators, Ford had a bigger, brighter sound, one that certainly showed a deep appreciation for the British Invasion but also found space for swirling, insistent organ and a facility with an R&B groove that wasn't quite common among other garage bands.
