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! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

SCARCE 1971 ORIGINAL ~ POWERFUL HEAVY PSYCH JAMMER!
STILL FACTORY SEALED!!!!
HAYSTACKS BALBOA
\ USA - POLYDOR - 24 4032
BEAUTIFUL final collectors copy!
For sure it's RARE when having a STILL FACTORY SEALED Original USA 1971 first pressing of solid jams with nice heavy, fuzzy guitar tone throughout. Very reminiscent of bands like Deep Purple and Cream, Mountain, The Vagrants, Leslie West, Zeppelin...One and only album of heavy acid rock.
Expect it to contain the original Polydor printed inner sleeve
Featuring the talents of drummer Mark Babani, vocalist Larry Goodman (quickly replaced by Bruce Scott), lead guitarist Mark Harrison Mayo (a Leslie "Mountain" West look alike), keyboardist Lloyd Landesman, and bassist Mark Polott, these guys were about as 'heavy' as you could get, but the usual combination of bad timing, record label incompetence, and sheer bad luck saw their sole 1970 album unfairly ignored...40+ years later it's a highly praised "wanted" heavy-psychrock collectible.Real heavy dudes with a mean attitude and some wicked guitar - above-par hard rock. A couple of tracks on their album were written by Larry West, formerly of the legendary Vagrants and younger brother of guitar colossus, Leslie 'Mountain' West. The album was produced by Shadow Morton, aka Shadow Mann. Mayo and Polott still play together in an outfit called Blue Lagoon
The hard rock tunes are typical of the time, like Sabbath or Mountain, with backbreaking heavy fuzzy guitars and satanic lyrics. The progressive moments are quite nice, long tracks relying on Hammond organ and guitar interplay with extended instrumental stretches.
