Mercury Records - SRM-1-629

This band hailed from Poughkeepsie, New York. Known for their lead vocalist at the time, Franke Previte, who fronted "Franke and the Knockouts' later on. They were seasoned musicians that had all been with other bands, but they were still playing colleges and high schools when Mercury Records came along and signed them to a record deal. A week later they were at Madison Square Gardens opening for Rod Stewart and spent the next 2 months touring with him and Deep Purple. They had enough material to record their first LP and followed that with a second album before Franke left for a solo career. 

Musically, hard and heavy rock with harmony. Some say they emulate Uriah Heep and Atomic Rooster. Pretty good record. Franke can let out high pitched screams, gritty vocals and mellow ballards. He won and oscar, later, for writing the song "I've Had The time Of My Life" for the movie 'Dirty Dancing'.

This was the second album.

Gatefold cover has some general shelf, edge, corner and ring wear with and corner crease bottom right. Record has some slight sleeve scuffing with a couple minor hairline scratches. Record plays with very slight ticks here and there. Proper Mercury label logo inner sleeve.

I was Ina-Gadda-Da-Records.

Long time buyer from E-bay and other record websites since the 90's.

Please bear with me. I'm selling off my entire record collection (about 40,000 LPs) listing them one at a time.

A long and arduous task. Lots of gems and rare stuff.

Check out The Psychedelic Digest.

Auctions are listed for 7 days.  

All records are conservatively Graded to GOLDMINE Standards and are rated VINYL FIRST / THEN COVER. For double LPs Vinyl / Vinyl / Cover. I will visually grade both sides of vinyl and play grade if I see unusual flaws. Covers will be visually graded. Plenty of pictures for any records that are high end items.

LPs will be packaged in the proper corrugated cardboard box, we all know about, with extra cardboard pads. Each LP will have a clear plastic sleeve. The record itself will be removed and shipped within the sleeve separate from the cover to prevent any seam splits. The vinyl record will NOT be removed from a sealed LP purchase for shipping.

Payment is due within 7 days unless you let me know. If payment has NOT been received within the 7-day payment period and you have NOT contacted me, the record will be relisted.

I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE, BUT INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING IS DETERMINED BY THE WEIGHT OF THE PACKAGE. DO NOT MAKE PAYMENT UNTIL I SEND YOU AN INVOICE.

If you have won an auction and see another item that ends beyond the 7-day maximum payment period, let me know and I will hold your item until that bid period ends. This would be a special circumstance that would not extend beyond 10 days. I will invoice you for the full amount and expect payment at that point.

Typically, USA Media mail would be 1-2 LPs- $5.00 USD. Canada $23.00 USD. Europe around $30.00 USD for 1-2 LPs. Additional LPs as per total weight. I will send an invoice with total postage cost.

I can combine the shipping but will only send a maximum of 10 records per package. Additional postage will be determined by total weight of the package. An invoice will be sent to you.

Priority Mail, Insurance, etc. is available at additional costs. Let me know and I will send an invoice.

I will Refund for any item purchased and received that was not fully as described. Grading is the usual cause of concern here. We're talking used and 30-50 years old. There are no perfect records, even sealed records can have flaws. If there is a concern, please contact me. 

Any returns will be posted at the buyer's cost. If necessary, I will only refund the original purchase price.
