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 +22,000 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.

- STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAP
- TOP MINT COVER
- with Psychedelic enhanced group images front cover and fabulous STONER artwork back cover.
- *****Probably no better cover exists; perhaps to consider for anyone upgrading their original, IF lucky to own.
- (see full details below because the local vinyl pressing provided as obvious good-times party atmospherics))
This lost relic, said to be of only 250 copies originally pressed, features classic heavy garage psych winners to which collectors are known to fork over a small fortune for an original.
Noted by musicologists of the era, Marble Phrogg's custom versions through both sides are as good or better than the underground rock hero's they replicated. Loaded with a (hard) gritty attack combined by fuzz-peddle guitar theatrics, holy-grail rock gems flash, echoing the sounds of Iron Butterfly, Cream, Jimi Hendrix Experience, Eric Burdon & New Animals, Steppenwolf, and their own similar compositions, inform the direction 'Marble Phrogg" were at.
A few of the albums better tracks are “Fields Of Sun,” "Fire",” "Strange Brew" and “Love Me Again.” The distorted-fuzz tones all over the place are sterling. The Marble Phrogg album was pressed on the small Oklahoma "Derrick" label who also released the not so known "now sounds" album by Linda Lou and The Three For All

Sky Pilot 5:28 CONDITION:
- The cover: rated: MINT still in original factory shrink wrap, a true beauty; no better 1968 cover potentially exists. Flat & square with 4 sharp corners. There are no faded areas, no delete marks, no split seams, and without bends, and no writing ...
- The vinyl: Rated: VG / VG- and better, but unfortunately the thick weighty vinyl was played ... some thin hair scuffs and hairline stylus marks are visual, not alarmingly bad visually, yet the vinyl plays with intermittent audio ticks and pops - the vinyl not durable; viewing the sides appears would be better, though parts of the album do play without surface. Both Derrick labels are decent clean
- A cool addition to anyone's music library!
