THE SPIDERS "Back"/"I'm A Man"/"Movin' Up"/"People Deceive"
Original 1970 33 rpm EP on the Mexican RCA label
PICTURE SLEEVE is in VG+ shape
Vinyl plays VG to VG+
This 1970 four-track EP is FAR rarer than the Spiders' LP of the same year - a quick search online reveals that in the past few years, over THREE times as many LPs were sold than EPs. Those of you who are already familiar with Mexico's Spiders know what to expect here - big crunching heavy acid rock with a good flair for melody, something you don't often expect from these South of the Border bands. "People Deceive" is my personal fave, a dark brooding slice of lo-fi garage psych with lots of ambition and hints of some deeper cosmic importance, thanks in part to that giant church organ intro. "Movin' Up" is melodic fuzz-fueled psych garage and reminds me a lot of the first Fever Tree album, while the great "Back" has a cool baroque music box melody and more of that classic Spiders whirligig farfisa organ that's so prominent in most of their songs. Classic stuff, four of the band's strongest tracks in a wild psychedelic spider sleeve. And so SO much harder to find than their album, which is already hard to find.

(THE LESS EXCITING STUFF...)
First class shipping is $4.00 in the US, with each additional record only $1 additional shipping. Delivery confirmation included in the shipping costs. US International postal rates just shot up nearly double this past week, so please take note of the new rates. I don't make a profit on shipping costs - these are what the post office charges me. Air mail shipping to Canada starts at $10 US, each additional record $3 shipping. Air mail shipping everywhere else in the world starts at $13 US, with each additional record only $4 shipping.
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.
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.
