Description
THE DRUID CHASE "Fine Brown Frame" acetate LP
Acetate of unreleased LP by "The Druid Chase" This album is a completely different sound from the psychedelic sound of their "Take Me In Your Garden" single.
The song "Take Me In Your Garden" is in fact on this LP in a VERY different form. This LP is pure pop with tinges of Tropicalia and strong female jazz vocals.
This record came from a collection that contained records from Sammy Davis Jr's personal record collection. It is believed that this was a record in his collection - perhaps given to him with the hopes of landing a recording contract.
The record looks good visually, but does play with some noise. There is also some delicate flaking of the acetate at the beginning of one side. Thankfully the noise problems caused by this damage are on what is (in my opinion) the weakest track on the album (the standard "Put on a Happy Face")
These are the track titles: Every Time I Feel the Spirit Fine Brown Frame (misspelled on the label) When the World Was Young Take Me In Your Garden I Wanna Get My Hands On You Pass That Peace Pipe Put on a Happy Face Please Don't Talk About Me I've Got it Bad In the Half Light Child of Summer You've Got Your Troubles That's All
I have uploaded some needle drops so that you can hear some of the sounds:
CONDITION:
record: Most of the record would be considered VG- excepting the first track on one of the sides which would be graded much lower due to acetate flaking. Check video for details.sleeve: VG- some water damage to sleeve.
Please Note My Conservative Grading System:
I use the following grades: M (mint, new sealed records only get this grade),
NM (totally flawless but opened record - many other dealers would call this "mint", I only differentiate when the record is not factory sealed),
EX (only very minor signs of use)
VG+ (a *high* grade from me, record may show minor signs of use, but is in overall great shape and should play free from defect),
VG (record may have some minor surface marks, but nothing that should detract from the listenability), VG- (may have a number of surface marks and may play with some noise, but still listenable and a decent play copy)
G (I rarely list anything with this grade unless it is highly rare and valued, may have many surface marks, but still playable without skipping)
I have over 20 years experience in record dealing and grade conservatively.

Shipping note: Due to numerous postal problems I no longer ship to Italy or Brazil.
Addendum concerning overseas shipping since this is my most commonly asked question: The shipping price is as stated by ebay's shipping calculator on the auction page. Many overseas buyers are unaware that The United States Postal Service raised rates in January. Rates are significantly higher than they were last year. The cost is calculated by weight, which includes the sturdy heavy box and filler inserts I use to guarantee a safe trip overseas. The weight of the packaging unfortunately bumps the item into the higher cost of shipping bracket. The USPS no longer has a sea-mail shipping auction. The cost quoted is for standard airmail delivery and is actually the cheapest method available.
