Description

Welcome to Heart of Wax - Vinyl online record shop. I shall endeavour to post up as many exciting records up here that I find. Usually all from private collections which I've sourced. I'm happy to post out records to all you lovely people of the United Kingdom. Generally each record is secondhand and has been played. All have been cleaned and listened to by myself. And if there are any faults or defects, I will provide them in an honest description below.

THE KINKS - LOLA VERSUS THE POWERMAN AND THE MONEYGOROUND  

Original UK stereo press from 1970.

A loose concept record focusing around Ray Davies own psychosis and bitterness towards the music industry. Funny that it should have one of their finest pop songs in 'Lola' appearing on it. But saying that this is just one of their finest songs is like saying Romeo & Juliet is the only Shakespeare play you need to read. 'Lola Versus...' is regarded as an LP of their strongest set of songs. And when delivered with Ray's deviant razor sharp wit highlights just how important this band were and are. Any other band would struggle making these tunes sound angry whereas there's humour and melancholy thrown in too.

If you think you know The Kinks but have never heard this LP get ready for a dazzling array of artistic strengths and endearing character flaws in equal measure. Working class angst from just a normal set of lads never sounded so sharp, paranoid and borderline genius.

CONDITION         

Sleeve - VG - showing signs of a little wear and on the inside cover some minor water damage marks. But nothing that affects the structure of the gatefold finest sleeve.  

LP - VG+ - some minor marks due to age and play. Nothing which affects play 
___________          

POSTAGE  

Due to value of this record the postage is FREE 

OR 

Local collection via my house or my record stall (when available) - FREE  
  
I package each record using the 'cardboard and bubble wrap sandwich method.' Sleeve and LP are kept separate within the postage sleeve. It will arrive to your house looking very tasty but please don't attempt to eat it for your dinner. I only recommend popping it on your record player.  

INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE  

I have offered European and international postage to people on other records which I sell. However one particular continental customer has sent through some horrible feedback and been rather abusive - so I'd prefer to now only ship to somewhere in the UK from here on in. Shame really that we all can't get along. But that's the modern world for you.   

It doesn't mean I won't ship abroad but you'll have to send me a message so I can figure out a postage price and whether or not I'm happy to ship this, or any item out to you. Everyone deserves a second chance.  

All the best.
