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.

High-end $ valued 1970 rarity ::: heavy prog-edged psych jams with gushing organ and ripping guitar !
From Cincinnati, Ohio, this outfit used to gig frequently with Westfauster and played a heavy, very organ dominated original styles accompanied by fierce lead guitar injections. Their self composed material is adventurous and creative ... both of their albums have distinct psychedelic influences..."Declare" is the most progressive LP, with long jamming tracks, spacious instrumental parts swamped in keyboards and distorted guitar overload. It also includes a cover version of a Saint Steven track from the legendary Saint Steven "one" LP! Originally released on the NASCO label, same label as The Electric Toilet mega-rarity!
The mighty WHALEFEATHERS featured continuous strong bluesy overtones with a mind melting unhurried methodical pace that enveloped many of the bands tunes, tunes filled with blues-predisposed melodies. As a result of the bands pace, many of the song structures have a ‘bassy plod over a slow emotional solo’ which seems derivative of many of the olden days blues-based projects. The quintet’s 1970 debut, Declare, however, is heavier rock and less blues drenched in a progressive sound with psych edges all throughout. Yes, melodious progressive rock around ethereal atmospheres and loded with a lot of organ, strong vocals & intense acid guitar freak outs... included is a good slowed take on Moby Grape`s great "Omaha".
