INTRODUCING PAYOLA$

On Back: The A&M DEBUT SERIES features 4 songs by exciting new talent on a 12" disc at a suggested list price of $3.98.

"Figuring prominently in Vancouver's new wave, PAYOLA$ first recorded CHINA BOYS in the summer of '79 and released 1000 copies on SLOPHOUSE RECORDS. The ridiculosly upbeat song about the Westernization of the People's Republic, wich its irrereverent Oriental motif proved irresistible and became an underground favourite setting new standards of production for local basement recording.
PAYOLA$ have done additional production work on CHINA BOYS. Their A&M debut also includes ROSE, T.N.T. and JUKEBOX. Their influences range from Bill Nelson to Stockhausen but PAYOLA$ revolve around a love of rock music." TOM HARRISON

A Note About Shipping To The U.S.
We are located in Canada, but have registered ourselves on eBay.com instead of eBay.ca because it gives us significantly better global exposure.  The problem with this is that eBay wants us to charge shipping appropriate to US, where media mail and other options make for fairly reasonable delivery costs. We tried it for a while but ended up losing money on shipping or having to cancel the orders because we couldn't afford to ship for those rates. To manage this we have set the US shipping to run a calculator based on an American location (we chose Plattsburgh as fairly close) and charging according to UPS pricing.  This avoids the cancellation issue, but appears to the buyer to be a prohibitive shipping cost and misrepresents the shipping as being only expedited. If you give us your postal code we will see if we can offer a more reasonable option, but generally we can get a single LP by air to most places in the continental US for $11, a few bucks less for ground.
Thanks for shopping Sir Helmitt,
