The Norman Haines Band                Den Of Iniquity         Radioactive  RRLP051

This is a 2004 180g reissue of The Norman Haines much overlooked 1971 Parlophone classic "Den Of Iniquity". An exercise in Psych Prog that features heavily in effected Hammond and guitar. The 2nd side is a Psych masterpiece. Easily stands up with anything else of that era. Fantastic sound (recorded at Abbey Road by Peter Bown - the man responsible for a lot of the late 60's-early 70's sounds coming out of both Abbey Road and EMI Studios, including Pink Floyd, Battered Ornaments, Edgar Broughton, Piblokto, Tomorrow, etc, etc, etc.). This album sold in extremely limited quantites and NM originals now fetch WAY more than $1000. This Radioactive reissue sounds EXCELLENT and is also way out of print. 

Dead wax has RRLP 051 A-1 stamped on Side 1 and RRLP 051 B-1 stamped on Side 2. 2004 UK Radioactive pressing.     

Vinyl visual Grading:  VG+/NM with a couple of very light lines. Could stand with a cleaning. Looks almost unplayed for sure. 

Vinyl play Grading:  NM with EXCELLENT fidelity and almost no noise. Plays as well as any of this pressing that you will find.

Cover visual Grading:  VG+ on this single sleeve faithful repro cover. One 2" split on top seam where the HEAVY vinyl made its' way through. A few tiny, unnoticeable creases along spine. 

Comes with original plain paper inner which I have lined with an Audiophile style rice-plastic inner.

Hello all. My name is Jamie and I have been collecting records for 35+ years. It is high time to sell off my doubles (of which I have hundreds), and also some items that are no longer of interest to me. My musical tastes run all over the map so there should be something for everyone depending on the particular day.  My goal is to become an HONEST, TRUSTED and RELIABLE provider of EXCELLENT quality vinyl and cds.  The grading system I employ for vinyl will be as follows:

NM:  Virtually unmarked / considered either RARELY PLAYED, AS NEW OPENED, or record could still be SEALED.

VG+:  NO scratches/scuffs. At most a few light surface blemishes which have VERY LITTLE or NO effect on fidelity. 

VG:  Used but CERTAINLY NOT abused, perhaps extremely light surface scratching/scuffing causing noise which DOES NOT significantly compromise the fidelity of the music

G:   There will be visible marking and noise evident but the record will still be listenable and enjoyable, depending on your ears.

I do not use the Mint grading since there really is no such thing as perfection. Also, I will NOT sell noisy vinyl (Fair/Poor gradings) UNLESS I feel that there is significant historical and/or collector interest in the item. 

ALL records will have been visually graded under BRIGHT light and play graded on a Thorens TD165 table with little used Shure cartridge (at about 1.5 grams) and JBL reference headphones with the Treble set HIGH. This play-grading system masks very little so rest assured that my descriptions will be ACCURATE.

All of my listings will have the particulars detailed (ie. any blemishes, detail concerning condition of vinyl, cover, etc.). All records will be shipped in new or top-condition recycled record mailers with well padded corners and extra stiffeners. Original inners will be included if available, and all vinyl/covers will be held within a poly outer (vinyl will be outside of cover).

I will not be held responsible for any items that are lost or damaged in transit, AND NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. (NO EXCEPTIONS)

I am a reasonable person. If you have issue with any purchased item, please work with me to reach a solution that will be to your liking.  I offer money back guarantees including the original selling price of the item + shipping fees already paid. I will not refund the cost incurred by you to ship the item back to me. ALL bidders with less than 10 positive feedbacks MUST contact me first BEFORE bidding.

TAKE NOTE: SHIPPING IS AS OUTLINED BELOW (I NO LONGER SHIP TO RUSSIA)

SHIPPING/HANDLING:  Since I will be shipping from Canada (terribly expensive postal rates), postage will be flat rate as follows:  

                 1 LP anywhere in Continental U.S./Canada - $8             1 LP Overseas as per Canada Post fees in listed shipping rates  

    It costs me MORE THAN the $8 Continental listed fee to post an album, so everyone (in North America) gets a break on shipping.  Multiple items will be quoted upon request! These shipping/handling rates are still DEFINITELY LESS than my actual costs. Feel free to ask questions at any time. No question will go unanswered. I have done A LOT OF VINYL BUYING on ebay and have encountered pretty much every conceivable issue.

On occasion, I will be listing cds. All of the cds will have their particular condition detailed within the listing. Shipping for cds will be $3 within Canada/U.S. and $6 to U.K./Japan. I will, of course, offer shipping/handling cost breaks on multiple items BUT since I am shipping from Canada (where we live with NOTORIOUSLY high postal rates), you may not receive the price break that you are hoping for.  

AGAIN, being a reasonable person, I will be absorbing some of the costs of postage and ALL of the costs of shipping materials.

Payment by PayPal.  Payment required within 10 days of auction end. Shipment will be made within 48 hours of receipt of payment (I can only make it to the Post Office every other day).
