GLOBAL VILLAGE TRUCKING COMPANY

Global Village Trucking Company

Original UK LP released on Virgin / Caroline Records in 1975. Includes insert.

Undisputed legends of the early- to mid-'70s British free festival circuit, Global Village Trucking Company already had a few years under their belt when they made their first album -- a few years, and enough experience to know that distended free-form jams simply didn't cut it in the studio any longer. The result is a powerful piece of pubby prog rock somewhere between Kevin Ayers, 10cc, and Brinsley Schwarz, with mock-reggae rhythms slipping in among the anthems and only one track -- the closing 12 minutes of "Watch out, There's a Mind About," recorded live at an Oxford college -- even glancing in the direction of a muddy field full of mushrooms. Another key cut is a BBC session take of "Love Will Find a Way," itself one of the most unexpectedly poppy songs in the band's entire repertoire; the rest of the album, recorded with first-album Motörhead producer Fritz Fryer, is open and ambitious, happy and warm -- the tinkling piano of "Love Your Neighbour," the honky tonk vibe of "Smiling Revolution," the tropical excursions which warm up every other instrumental break.

The craziness quota undoubtedly increases as the album moves on ("The Inevitable Fate of Ms Danya Sox" is exactly what its title portends). But even when the virtuosity freakout finally breaks, it doesn't disturb the long summer night that has built up over the rest of the record.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COMBINED SHIPPING ON ALL 12" VINYL / LPS / 12" EPS / 12" SINGLES - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY!!!!

We offer combined shipping on all LPs / 12" Vinyls: our shipping rates are listed above. HOWEVER shipping packages that weigh more than 2kg is VERY expensive. Therefore we can only offer combined shipping up to a maximum of SEVEN (7) LPs / 12" vinyls. Any extra purchases will be invoiced, packaged and shipped separately.

Sorry but I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks of auctions (see below).

---------------------------------------------------

PAYMENT

I would appreciate payment within seven days of the auction’s end. If you want to bid on more of my auctions ending a week later please inform me. I will wait and issue a combined invoice at the close of the second week’s auctions.

However, I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks and in these cases would appreciate payment promptly after the close of the second week’s auctions.

I am sorry to have to introduce these measures – I always try to be patient and allow buyers to bid on extra auctions and / or delay payment. Unfortunately some buyers have been stretching out transactions to unacceptable lengths so I feel I have no option but to limit ‘carried over’ transactions to two weeks.
