Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please 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. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ORIGINAL 1972 FIRST PRESS HEAVY PSYCH FROM THE KRAUTROCK UNDERWORLD!
..
CREATIVE ROCK
"G O R I L L A"
GERMANY - (GREEN) BRAIN -
RARE and SOUGHT ...
Original 1972 (((GREEN))) BRAIN first press in laminated eye-popping GATEFOLD cover ...
Devastatingly dense & swinging brassy Krautrock underground powerhouse with unique edge and bombastic lysergic guitar leads cutting through like ripping razors ... the mighty CREATIVE ROCK features the most fierce vocalist of the whole Kraut-scene alongside Grobschnitt's Willi Wild. Maximum must-have monster-krauter.
So this rather obscure band CREATIVE ROCK united in Germany at the right time period and were thrust within the "Krautrock" explosion. Talents obvious were signed to the major-league "BRAIN" label and in line with the labels "experimental" rock offerings certainly delivered a decidedly interesting, unique hard prog sound...
CREATIVE ROCK hung on long enough to release two collectible-worthy albums, "GORILLA" being their first and the "LADY PIG" a year later. The band is tight - very tight, the sway to and fro in unison - a powerful DENSE sound and one of the rare treats where brass is backing in a way that is not a turn-off but adds to the overall powerful force of the instrumentation. While backing rhythms rock sudden emerging of electrifying shards from the sky appear in jagged howling forms of distortion guitar - jolting the listener to attention, i.e. not made for simple 'background' music! If the lead off track "NATRON" doesn't twist your speakers in knots, then walk on by....
Natron - 6:17
A Horseman's Morningsong - 5:00
Tapeworm 5:30
Hear What I'm Talking 5:20
Blind People -9:10
This World Between 6 And 8 A.M. -4:47
Wunderbar - 6:40
Preussens Gorilla - 2:13
CONDITION: The cover: rated: "EX" (excellent) laminated gatefold cover is considerably better than most survivors IF sound. That white appearance you see around the edges is outer lamination lifting up. A major detail with old early '70s Krautrock albums is lamination has peeled away on most covers, this one only listing, no peeling! No faded colors, no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing ... VERY collection worthy ...
The vinyl: Rated: M- full shine, clear, no marks, plays fantastic! Both green Brain labels are clean
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
