BRUCE HAACK Tiny Tim SANTA Childrens PRIVATE Synth LP
Description: BRUCE HAACK with TINY TIMZOOT-ZOOT-ZOOT Here Come Santa In His New Space Suit
.
Ra-Jo Records 3000
Original 1981 LP • Stereo
Disc is NM
Looks unplayed. Labels are pristine.
*NOTE: photo of record label doesn't do justice; bright red labels with black print always photograph badly for me, with blurred, indistinct appearing text.
The print on the label is actually, sharp, clear solid black on bright red.
Cover is NM
Like New.
A very odd album here, and probably the rarest Tiny Tim LP -though he's only on the title song. Primarily it's the synthesizer wizardry and concept of Bruce Haack, who wrote or co-wrote all of the original music.
Most of the music is an electronic Christmas odyssey with some children singing and storytelling and sound effects floating through -imagine a longer "Mount Vernon and Fairway" (Brian Wilson / Beach Boys) for Christmas, with the unique electronic synthesizer / Moog approach of Bruce Haack ("Electric Lucifer" LP) with guest star Tiny Tim.
If you don't know Haack, imagine Mort Garson in Tonto's Expanding Head Band. If you don't know them, imagine the wildest. This is wilder.
.
As far as I know "Ra-Jo Records" had exactly 2 releases: this LP and the 45rpm single from it (Ra-Jo 30).
Bruce Haack is hugely talented and the program and concept here really works. Not everyday listening, but when you want that rocket to the 4th dimension, this sure beats those funny cigarettes.
Like almost all Bruce Haack LPs, very few were printed of this album and no CD exists.
LP housed in protective poly outer sleeve.
All records packed with vinyl (inside inner sleeve) behind cover - and shipped in strong cardboard LP mailers with bubble wrap around all sides - between stiff cardboard flats for best protection in the mail.
Please note that these important supplies add to my shipping costs - only a very small amount of which goes into the shipping charge.
My LP packing is considered to be among the very best on eBay. I would have it no other way.
SHIPPING RATES:
USA: Media Mail: $4.00 ... or Priority Mail: $8.00. Most of my customers prefer Media Mail because it is very cheap. Please keep in mind that it's cheap because it is SLOW. I have had Media Mail boxes take a month to travel 30 miles and in excess of two months to travel cross-country. Sometimes it can arrive cross-country in 5 days. Due to Postal Service conditions, the actual arrival time cannot be known in advance.
Additional LPs in same shipment: $1.00 each. Combine buys to save on shipping.
ALL OTHER COUNTRIES: I charge only EXACT POSTAGE, Worldwide.
*PLEASE do not ask me to mark the item as a 'GIFT' for customs. I cannot. The postal clerks know better; I ship LPs constantly (over 30 years) and cannot fool them.
The sadly necessary ITALY, RUSSIA, BRAZIL SHIPPING NOTE:
If you are in ITALY, RUSSIA or BRAZIL, you are completely welcome to bid and buy here.
Just be aware that your countries' postal / customs services may slow things down. THIS WILL NOT BE MY FAULT.
I ship as soon as I receive cleared payment and treat ALL my customers and their records with the greatest respect.
(in 'shipping details' I state '2 days handling/dispatch time' ...in case life gets in the way. The actual ship-out time will usually be quicker.)
I package the LPs to survive even the worst conditions the postal systems can hand out.
You will LOVE my LP packing!
After the auction:
You will receive my invoice within 24 hours. IF you are in the USA and only buying ONE LP, you may simply PayPal right away. For COMBINED purchases, please wait for the TOTALED INVOICE.
Payment to be received within 7 days of auction end.
If you are bidding on more than ONE ITEM from my list, please don't pay before your last item in my listings (in same 7-day period) -so that I can combine your LPs on the INVOICE and charge you reduced shipping accordingly.

NOTE: eBay has recently decided to send automatic "payment reminders" to buyers. I'm uncomfortable with the idea that someone is getting an email from me that I didn't write, yet eBay makes it impossible to defeat that feature. Please be aware that those extra emails are not coming from me, but from a computer somewhere in a dark room at eBay Towers.
Bid to win, but please do not bid if you do not plan to pay!
Lets keep eBay rockin' for us all!
