Description
THE BLUE HAZE WITH BIG Z: He/Blue Haze Blues (Northland G 204/196?)
Heavy fuzz/organ garage instro with weird shouting (Big Z, I guess). He is a wimpy ballad with christian song-poem type lyrics and melody.
It seems to be one of those singles where the band was hired to back up the singer on a wimpy ballad that was "sure" to be become a hit, and was allowed to do their own thing on the flip side. Like so many of these, it's the band's side that we care about.
Blues is VG (fair amount of light scuffmarks and hairlines; plays throughout with crackling which is mostly drowned out by the loudness of the music). He is VG- (fair amount of light scuffmarks and hairlines; some light scratches; plays with much crackling and a fair number of clicks).
See my other auctions for more garage and psych 45s. Lots of good fuzz to be heard here.
Some sounds will be added early in the week
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.).
