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 become 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! 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; 2-4 discs $5.00; .50 each additional disc Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

*CLEAN* 1970 Original FIRST PRESS WITH POSTER COVER ~
ELECTRIFIED FIRST "T.REX" (with abreviated name)
T-REX
...USA -Reprise Records - RS 6440
Original 1970 first pressing ~ really hard to find this clean with the large gatefold poster cover ....
Marc Bolan parted ways with partner Steve Took and hired Mickey Finn to play bongos, as well shortening the duo's name to "T.REX", with future visions in the mind, the dynamic BOLAN had laid his blue print for ultra stardom, a level he knew he could ultimately reach....
At the urging of famed UK producer Tony Visconti and others, the duo then shortened its name to T. Rex. The self-titled album released in late 1970 is a logical bridge between A Beard Of Stars, and Electric Warrior, but it the two. The first seven tracks sound similar to those of the last two albums, with a bit more electricity; "The Visit" and "Diamond Meadows" are the best of these. But on "Beltane Walk", Bolan and Finn begin to sound like T. Rex as we know them. The second half of the album provided further hints of what was to come. "One Inch Rock" and "Suneye" would fit in well on a later T. Rex album. If you want to hear Bolan play with his most reckless abandon, he goes over the top on "The Wizard". For whatever reason, the less-than-one-minute "Children Of Rarn" opens and closes the album. T. Rex completed Bolan's transition from acoustic cult figure to electric glam rocker. Soon after the album's release, the duo added a bassist and a drummer and recorded Electric Warrior, and the rest, as they say, is history.
