Description

BIG BROTHER FEATURING ERNIE JOSEPH: Brother, Brother Where Are You/E.S.P. (All-American 5718/1970)

Fine two-sided organ-led heavy late psych from the band (not the Janis Joplin one) that had the Confusion LP on the same label as this 45. Brother, a non-LP song, has phased vocal harmonies and vibes (and a great electronic effect at end). E.S.P. is a takeoff of the Pretty Things' "LSD", with heavy drumming and phasing.

The record is VG+ overall (moderate amountof light marks on Side 1, a couple on Side 2; Side 1 has popping through about half the song - very audible, but not overwhelming; Side 2 plays with only a little surface noise heard in the fadeout).

See my other auctions for some garage and psych as well as some weird 45s. Some good fuzz to be heard here and there.

 

GENERAL INFO

 

SHIPPING: Shipping costs will be quoted based on cost for estimated weight plus $1.00 to cover most of the cost of packing materials.

All records are packed in in between two cardboard filler pads and shipped in professional cardboard mailing boxes. All unsealed  12" records are taken out of their covers to prevent seam splitting. If there is a custom inner sleeve, the record will be put in a separate white inner. If a 7" record comes in a picture sleeve, the same procedure is followed.

 

GRADING: I grade records both visually and audibly. As grading is so imprecise and subjective, I don't have a set grading description like you see listed in many auction and collector magazines. My grades for  records and covers are based on the overall conditions I describe in each auction; I will note any visual defects and (for the vinyl) any non-musical sounds (pops, clicks, skips, etc.).
