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.

  • PLAYS GREAT!  Original 1967 MONO first pressing from 54 years back provides as a real treat in memorable melodies by a top flight rated Chicago garage band with jangle guitar led teen-beat sound of '65 '66 BYRDS. All in the studio of Columbia Records...
    .....................................................................................................
    Boy, somebody likes the Byrds. The Cryan' Shames sound like the local Byrds-styled band, which makes sense for mid-1966. "We'll Meet Again" and "She Don't Care About Time" are played outright, and the band's entire approach is Byrdsian: guitarist Jim Fairs does a good McGuinn impersonation on 12-string, and the group has their harmonies down. Sugar and Spice is not all Byrdsian; the band covers other top acts - Beatles ("If I Needed Someone"), garage ("Heatwave"), the Leaves ("Hey Joe"), and the Animals (an odd version "We Got to Get Out of This Place" with a cool spoken intro, and possibly overdubbed crowd noises). Even the fun, bouncy title track, "Sugar & Spice, was a Searchers hit from 1963. There are some good signs here - the band plays well together, and lead guitarist Jim Fairs penned four tracks. At best, his work is good pop-rock ("I Wanna Meet You", "We Could Be Happy"), and "Ben Franklin's Almanac," was a respectable original with shades of the Byrds, the Yardbirds, and California harmonies, but more rocking, as the rhythm guitar plugs away at a Bo Diddly beat, and Fairs allots himself a nice solo spot and he is pretty strong as lead guitarist. They were probably fun to see live, especially when you include the guy with a hook (Jim Pilster aka J.C. Hooke) for an hand playing tambourine/vocals. The rest of the band is Dennis Conroy (drums), Tom Doody (lead vocals), Dave Purple (bass), and Gerry Stone (guitar).
    The Cryan' Shames first album was probably their best of the three albums they released ; the second single, "I Wanna Meet You," was a decent meld of Beatles-Byrds jangle with Beach Boys harmonies; and its flip, "We Could Be Happy," was an good soft rock number. Throw in the original composition, "July" (one of the better 1966 Byrds sound-alikes), and you have a very decent 1966 pop/rock garage album.
