The Open Mind -LP- Sealed Record Store Day # 0251 of 1500

Competitive pricing is my goal to get rid of the hundred's of Lp's.  I try my best to grade lp's, and on occasion I will play test if time allows... I am trying to clean records that raises my ire of suspicion, but am finding my self these days cleaning everything. My only method of cleaning is a soft brush and cloth and some Audio Advisor product. I do not have a vacuum. I listen with my turntable & needle when I play grade an LP. If a stubborn noise erupts I will then look under a light and microscope. It is quite time consuming. So I may miss a thing or two sometimes on my listings,  but I will always be here to help resolve the issue. All I ask is my buyers realize these points and be rest assured I offer a refund policy but I would prefer you email me so we can work something out first, I may have a back up copy... Ebay deducts points for to many defective records, which I agree it is seller's responsibility...
I have been collecting records since my 20's... Its has been a passion and a part-time hobby, I hope you love and enjoy music as much as I do, and selling is another way to get to know other people with a like minded interest as I. I offer a refund policy, so please give me the opportunity to make good if there is a problem with a transaction. I reserve the right to cancel a transaction after the sale If I find a missed defect on your behalf.
check prices, email me with concerns please.

The band was formed in 1963 by four musicians from Putney, South West London. Initially named The Apaches formed by Tim du Feu, Mike Brancaccio and Philip Fox and their friend Ray Nye. Nye left in 1965 and another friend, Terry Schindler, joined instead. The band became The Drag Set, who released a little-known single in February 1967, "Day and Night" / "Get Out of My Way". Shortly thereafter, they changed their name to The Open Mind and in July 1969 released a self-titled LP which has since become a highly sought-after collectible. The band, however, is best known for its druggy August 1969 single, "Magic Potion", which did not appear on the album.

The Open Mind disbanded in 1973; its members wanted to move into jazz-influenced music, but The Open Mind was too well known as a psychedelic band. The band members (minus Phil Fox) went on to form Armada, which lasted about three years but did not release any recorded material.

Despite their paucity of recorded material, The Open Mind have proven to be influential in the psychedelic rock genre, their single "Magic Potion" having been covered by bands such as The Seers, Sun Dial and The Damned.
