Description
A couple of weeks ago I went to a remote NSW town and came across a guy who'd been buying prog/folk/psych/blues/R&B LP's for about 40 years. Relentlessly scouring the area. And he'd never sold anything. Except - on that day, he decided to. And he did. And it was thee best collection I'd seen for years. Let's not pretend everything was mint - it's not - but there's some gems in there.
This below is from that collection (which snuck in a few other genres too).
=====================================================================
ARTIST: SID RUMPO
TITLE: "FIRST OFFENSE"
FORMAT: …vinyl LP…
LABEL: MUSHROOM
CATALOGUE #: L-35109
DATE OF RELEASE: April 1974
PRESSED IN: AUSTRALIA
ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING?: Yes, it is...on the original black 'toadstool' labels...in gatefold cover...
No surprise why this is in such high demand - tough and heavy progressive blues-rock with some absolutely killer guitar-playing...plus there's two lengthy (8-minute-plus) semi-trippy prog tunes packed with yet more monster guitar...the whole album is utterly magnificent - not a duff note to be found - it's all class!!
CONDITION - COVER: ( EX- )...has minor foxing and ringwear on the back...would otherwise be very close to mint...
CONDITION - RECORD: ( VG+ )...has some very light 'hair-line' marks only, and plays near perfectly all the way through...barely any crackling even, in the one (very short) acoustic guitar tune (there is, however, some audible crackling in the equally short piano piece at the end)...everything else is loud and raucous (!!) and virtually interference-free...
CONDITION - LABELS: (Side One: MINT / Side Two: MINT )...
PACKAGING AND MAILING: Absolutely ALL care will be taken when packaging this - record and sleeve will be separated to avoid any damage in transit, and both will be packed in a sealed outer light plastic sleeve between layers of strong very flat and thick card - I've been doing this for a while and have attained a good safe packing standard.
If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).
