NOTE: eBay has implemented its new FEEDBACK policy to which ANY customer for ANY reason or ANY excuse can give sellers (i.e. "us") negative feedback. Please understand, we have served thousands of "satisfied" customers and processed thousands of orders - far more than our feedback records indicate - It is our intention to give EACH and EVERY buyer our best possible service and we are known to ALWAYS deliver your purchased item. ALL items paid for are processsed 'outbound'  to each and EVERY customer, satisfaction guaranteed.  Keep in mind we have serviced THOUSANDS of satisfied customers and our aim is to continue to do so.

We make every effort to mail all orders out Friday of each week.  Keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two at most.   We also strive to keep our shipping and handling costs as close to actual charges as reasonable.  

 TO OUR REPEAT CUSTOMERS:  We often get requests to hold orders to save on shipping.  We are happy to do that.  Please pay your current invoice within five days of auctions ending and IF YOU REQUEST we will hold your order and reflect a shipping discount for each additional order shipped together in the same parcel.   To receive continual shipping discounts, we will hold your orders as long as you want, but it is necessary to pay each invoice you receive to stay current.   Most importantly, we appreciate your business.

Original 1968 first pressing VINYL of the first album by the Los Angeles California hard guitar garage psych trio, THE HOOK ...

If you dig the sounds of CREAM meets the JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE, check into "Will Grab You" as these cats turn on the power fuzz guitar into cool psych heaviness...overloaded with Eric Clapton & Jimi styles, sometimes even directly "borrowed" solos built into their own works -- whatever, sounds great... this is Bobby Arlin, the ex-LEAVES guitarist, really cutting loooose!

This sounds along the lines of  "Are You Experienced?" meets "Disraeli Gears"... THE HOOK "Will Grab You" is consistently heavy, in a very consistently early Hendrix kind of way. Nice. The fuzz sounds a lot cleaner than Blue Cheer's debut. This is a very under-rated album, although collectors have caught on ~ beware of the last minute sniper on this one, several cats really want this album!

The only way anybody might not like this is if they don't care for heaviness, and/or they put a high priority on vocals/lyrics. Sure, there are some crazy "flower power" lyrics (it's hard to pay attention with all that heavy fuzz guitar), and the vocals often have a sarcastic/joking intonation, but that really has nothing to do with the appeal of the heavy rock displayed...

                     "Plug Your Head IN ~ Turn Yourself On"

 

Homes   Lookin' for You   You Know I Do   Turn Your Head   Son of Fantasy   Dr. B and His Friends   Plug Your Head In   Everything's Groovy   Garbage Man   Dimples

                        

 

CONDITION: The cover front is solid with little wear just starting, VG++, seams are tight and solid, no fraying, no bending, no writing.... the back cover with shelf wear. Altogether collectible especially with vinyl strong:

The vinyl is all glossy VG++ to "EX" (excellent) clean, will play beautiful ...!

     A cool addition to anyone's music library!
