Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity 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. 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 become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio 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. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP = $4.00 Media Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

CRUDE '60s TEEN-SCENE STOMPER!

"HOUR OF PRAYER"
by
THE APOSTLES
..|/\|...............................................|/\|..
USA - PRIVATE PRESS - C0 1245 (MONO)
...having a real cool time ....
Notable, rudimentary garage-rock legends that were among essentials of the mid-60's era.
The APOSTLES emerged from the same Phillips Academy school as the Rising Storm and the Ha'Pennys during the mid-sixties.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
The APOSTLES "An Hour Of Prayer" made the legendary '60s "Garage Punk Unknowns" compilation series.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
(Fan-Man says:) "an essential slice of primitive '60s energy laid down on wax, cutting-loose without restraint."
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
By the norm, 'seasoned engineering veterans' of major labels proceeded to polish and filter rough edged impurities out of groups like this some 50+ years ago. On the other hand, The APOSTLES, seemingly converged into a small studio underscoring their no lack of effort while banging out a mix of rock, blues and hints of jazz all in "one-take." No enhancements and/or restrictions were applied while delivering popular '60s covers with such a low-fi formidable crudeness layered in hipster styles.
of hipster mayhem.
Housed in a classic primitive/thick sleeve design, the kind not made anymore.
54 years ago...North East '60s garage-glories, the real deal, not a copy - not a counterfeit.
Bass Guitar – Terry Thomas
Cover – Jeff Macnelly
Drums – Kay Underwood
Guitar, Vocals – Bob Donaldson and John Morgan
winds – Dave Ludden
CONDITION: The cover: Rated: near M- you'd be hard pressed to find a better 54 years past tiny/local private pressing. The paste-on cover slicks are really clean, the steams are all strong as well as being flat and square. Upon the near impossible chance of finding this at your local record store or area record fair/convention, one would expect the vinyl would complement this cover. read below.
The vinyl: Rated: while not at all thrashed - was loved by the appearance which is rated a solid "VG" and better; not a weak VG at all, you'll hear the vibrant impact of the groups' offerings without extreme audio surface; few visible (light) hairlines and scuffs and otherwise fairly clean. Again, this is not an alarming platter, far from containing excessive surface, skips and jumps. Rather, the durable deep groove pressing contains full-on-radial sound! Both PRIVATE custom pressings are very clean with only some spindle marks on the custom private labels as pictured! (recommended rarity!)
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
