America

FOUR CLASSIC ALBUMS

Australian pressings

 

Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley formed the band America in London in 1970. Achieving significant popularity in the 1970s, the trio was famous for its close vocal harmonies and light acoustic folk-rock sound. The band released a string of hit albums and singles. This auction is for FOUR of these albums, including their first three releases. All these LPs play well – covers are described with each LP. Please check the pictures as they form part of the description.

I will be listing several records over the coming weeks. These are from a private collection that has been in storage for a few years. The images used in the listings will always be the actual records for sale, stock images will not be used. Please note I will do my best to grade the condition of these records, but I am not a professional grader. If anything, the gradings will be conservative. All LPs will be test played but only major defects will be reported.

 

I am happy to combine postage if you are interested in more than one listing. The item will be packed carefully to ensure it arrives safely which may mean postage is a little higher, but I will only charge you the postage I pay. Local pick up will be from the Highett area, about 5 minutes from Southland Shopping Centre. Overseas buyers please note postage is based on weight and distance, which can make buying from Australia quite expensive.

 

All bids are final. Winning bidder please contact me within 3 days. Postage discounts will be offered if more than one auction has been won. Buyer is to pay all postage. Overseas bidders please note that there is an Australia Post surcharge to some countries; this is to be paid by the buyer. Email for accurate postal costs before bidding. Please email me any questions.

 

Good luck and happy bidding!
