JASON & BREEZY "SPIN LIKE A DIAMOND" LP

ORIGINAL 1960'S ACETATE FULL-LENGTH LP ON STUDIO 42 LABEL, STEREO

VINYL HAS LOTS OF MARKS, SCUFFS, SCRATCHES, PLAYS FAIR/GOOD CONSIDERING IT'S ACOUSTIC FOLK MUSIC - CHECK CLIPS!

 

MAJOR FIND here!  A totally unreleased, unknown COMPLETE folk psych 60's album by a duo who called themselves Jason and Breezy, recorded sometime in the mid-60's I'm guessing at Studio 42, in Times Square, New York City.  Songs seem to be divided into the ones Jason sings - he's obviously going for a young Bob Dylan vibe which makes me think this MAY have been recorded around 1963 or 1964 - and Breezy, a bohemian hippie chick with a lovely folky voice.  It's quite an amazing little snapshot into the scene, and when i tried Googling this duo, NOTHING showed up, which makes me wonder if ANYONE else out there has ever even HEARD it!  Now, about the condition - it's quite clear this has weathered some major wear over the years.  There are some scary looking scuffs on Side 2, and more marks on Side 1.  Nothing is deep or would cause a skip, but it LOOKS rough.  I've played it all the way through and there's NO skips, but a fair amount of surface noise that is further accentuated because this is such a QUIET album.  MAKE SURE you check the clips before you bid.  That being said, if someone could clean this thing up a bit, it's probably the ONLY ONE in existence, and may be the ONLY way the world will ever hear the album that never was - "Spin Like A  Diamond" by Jason and Breezy.

 

HEAR IT!

 

PLEASE NOTE I NO LONGER SHIP TO ITALY DUE TO A CORRUPT POSTAL SYSTEM (THERE, NOT HERE).  BUYERS FROM ITALY AGREE TO PAY FOR GLOBAL PRIORITY MAIL INSURED ONLY!

 

 

The less exciting stuff

 

Media mail shipping with delivery confirmation starts at $4.00 in the US, with each additional record only $1 additional shipping.  I accept payments through Paypal. 

 

I try to grade as best as I can, and I list as many blemishes/imperfections I can find (writing, ringwear, scuff marks, etc.) – Also, please note that I DO listen to these albums – I may not listen to every track, but my grades are based on LISTENING, not just looking at it, since chances are you’ll be listening to the record you buy, not just looking at it.  Most of the albums I sell are the ones I’ve enjoyed for years – and I treat my records with kid gloves.  But sounds speak louder than words, so check out the sound clips below – they’re from the actual record you’re bidding on. 

 

SHIPPING AND PACKAGING

 

Listen, I buy a bunch of records too (when I’m not getting outbid at the last second, which is more often than not) – and I know what it’s like to get a rare, one-of-a-kind album packaged dangerously in a flimsy bubblewrap package.  I hate that too.  So rest assured, I ALWAYS package albums with stiff cardboard reinforcements, same for 45s.  And yes, the records are removed from the sleeves (for albums).  I ship out once a week, every Friday, because I have a regular day job.  But I’d be willing to give that up if you’d all be so kind as to bid my items up to stupidly high amounts. 

 

 For more security and international tracking, you may request GLOBAL PRIORITY MAIL - but bear in mind the cost of this service is upwards of $30.  For expensive items, however, it may be well worth it.  Unfortunately, there isn’t a cost-effective way of tracking parcels to foreign countries yet, and shipping times vary depending on your country’s postal system.   Italy in particular seems to be really bad at delivering packages quickly, or delivering packages at all, now that you mention it.  I will always email you when your package ships, but once it’s on its way, please don’t ask me when it will arrive because I don’t know.  If the world’s postal systems can ever agree on a universal tracking system that’s affordable, I’ll be the first to use it.

 

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN…

 

I will always leave positive feedback for successful transactions, and would appreciate the same in return.  All I ask of you is the following – please pay for your items within 14 days of the close of auction.  Compared to other sellers, that’s a generous amount of time, so if you don’t pay within 2 weeks, then I have to assume something’s wrong.  You’ll get an Ebay payment reminder at that point, and possibly a decapitated horse head in your bed.  If, after 30 days, you still haven’t forked up the cash, I’ll relist the item and yell at you if I ever see you in town.
