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.

BATTLE OF THE NORTHWEST SIX

- ENGLAND - DERAM RECORDS - SML 1054
RARE ...CLEAN ...Original 1969 BRITISH first pressing in fragile gatefold cover on the famed UK DERAM records label.
- Included is the original (BLUE) printed/plastic inner sleeve
- The gatefold cover has the "perfect circle" at top right which allows to see the inner sleeve, blue for stereo, red for mono
Aside from the fact that this is a stunning piece of late '60’s rock by one of the unsung stars of the Woodstock festival the year after this was released and that there is hardly a weak moment in the music and that it sounds almost as fresh today as it did then – this is an album of legendary importance.
The album itself is absolutely classic British Blues and the musicians read like rock royalty: Keef Hartley, who replaced Ringo Starr in his pre-Beatles Liverpool band and was a regular with John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, Spit James, Mick Weaver, Barbara Thompson, Mick Taylor plus Hartley’s regular band of Miller Anderson, Gary Thain, Henry Lowther and Jim Jewell.
Hartley was bringing his love of big band swing and Blues together with hippie sensibilities to produce a collection of complex, swinging boogie tunes and outright soul lifters.
To hear Mick Taylor – then of John Mayall and about to join the Rolling Stones – playing with Miller Anderson is little short of guitar heaven and Mick Weaver’s Hammond just roils and fills in the back sound with a fat harmony to whatever else is happening: they might never have sounded better than on 'Don’t Be Afraid’. Miller Anderson's vocals are outstanding. Steady rhythm from Hartley and Thain under some nice edgy guitar licks from Spit James and Anderson. Excellent keyboards and backing accents (the flugel's sound great). A combination of Blues, Rock and Jazz swing with emphasis on UK Blues-Rock. If you like the classic BLUESBREAKERS sound, you'll probably love this.

"Don't Give Up" – 4:07
"Me and My Woman" – 4:24
