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!

1968 UK BLUES COLLECTIBLE WITH CHRISTINE PERFECT
CHICKEN SHACK
40 Blue Fingers Freshly Packed
&
Ready To Serve
\ USA - yellow Epic Records- BN 26414
...Original 1968 first pressing by the great Chicken Shack...one of the leading bands from the old UK blooz boom sixties, along with Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac and John Mayall's Blues Breakers ...the secret ingrediant is Christine Perfect and her seductive smooth vocals and formidable organ mixes with Chack leader Stan Webbs great guitar licks...
Formed in 1967, Chicken Shack consisted of Stan Webb on guitar/vocal, Andy Sylvester on bass, Christine Perfect later known as Christine McVie, as a part of the great Fleetwood Mac on vocals/keyboards, and Alan Morley on drums.
40 Blue Fingers, Freshly Packed and Ready to Serve is an excellent example of the booming late 60's blues scene in & around London. With John Mayall & Alexis Korner creating benchmarks for the British blues scene, Chicken Shack were absolutely in the right place at the right time.
Stan Webb is another under-rated guitarist of the late 60's British Blues Scene, along the lines of Paul Kossoff (FREE), Les Harvey( STONE THE CROWS), Mick Taylor (BLUESBREAKERS) etc.
Christine McVie: Yes, she is Mrs. John McVie and hasa very powerful, soul-driven seductive voice that's very clearly influenced by the great John Mayall. Chicken Shack made their public debut at the Great Britain's National Blues & Jazz Festival at Windsor along with Green's Fleetwood Mac on August 13, 1967-- "There were two stages at Windsor, the main one an open-air ramshackle structure, the other inside a marquee. Fleetwood Mac had their initiation on the main stage but much was made of Chicken Shack's tented debut."
But all said and done Christine makes this album a worth buy. Stan Webb's charismatic guitar playing gives you another good reason to pick up this one.
