We have 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 2/3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers.

We mail all paid orders out once a week on Fridays/Saturdays. 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 to Monday.   We strive to keep our shipping and handling costs as close to actual charges as reasonable.  We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. Please be aware we have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.

TO OUR REPEAT CUSTOMERS: We are happy to hold orders to save on shipping. 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.

As always, thank you for your support!

Cool 1972 BRITISH ORIGINAL

POWER DRIVING GUITAR TRIO!

HARD STUFF

BULLET PROOF

...UK - PURPLE RECORDS

CLEAN ...Original 1972 first pressing with great laminated gatefold cover Deep Purples' UK "Purple Records label, never released in the USA, but highly sought after for good reason ...

Post Andromeda and formed after the breakup of Death Walks Behind You HEAVYPSYCH version of Atomic Rooster ...Living up to their name, Hard Stuff made two great albums filled with wicked rippers in tightly wound guitar trio -- loaded with cool catchy melodies & explosive driving rhythms..."BULLET PROOF" their first, is arguably their best -- no dull tunes anywhere....

Bulletproof is hard to imagine a better example of blistering 70s heavy rock. Not only does it have brutally distorted guitar riffs, it also has the benefit of good songwriting, resulting in a rare combination of both guts and brains. Split vocal duties also help, with the Johns du Cann and Gustafson sharing the mikestand. Highlights include "Sinister Minister" and "Time Gambler", in which the guitar sound pushes fuzz to the very brink of reason. The minimalism of "Taken Alive" also deserves a mention, its dumbness bordering on inspirational...

If you ever wished Leaf Hound had recorded a second LP, this is just what you've been looking for ...
