 JANET SMITH The Unicorn LP~RARE TAKOMA~john fahey basho FOLK

artist: JANET SMITH
title: Vol. 1 THE UNICORN (and other songs both old and new with musical assistance from Bob Wilson)
label/cat#: Takoma / A1027

vinyl: EX- (Record is extremely shiny and beautiful overall! Music plays strong and loud throughout with just a touch of light pop & crackle here and there, mainly only audible in the quietest of sections between songs; nothing really notable or at all distracting from the true strength & beauty of play. There's just a few surface marks/hairlines that do not effect overall play. Labels look beautiful both sides with no writing or other visible signs of wear. A truly wonderful copy of this VERY RARE early orange label Takoma LP!!!)

cover: EX- (Cover looks fantastic! Just a very small amount of shelf wear here and there around the spine's edges, but nothing at all even visually notable or at all distracting. No writing, tears, stickers or other notable signs of wear at all to mention. Looks wonderful, really NICE!!)

This auction is for "THE UNICORN and other songs both old and new with musical assistance from Bob Wilson" by JANET SMITH. This is an incredibly RARE Takoma title, a heavily in-demand psych-tinged folk record. I've only seen one other copy of this record for sale over the past three years, and this one is by far superior in condition, both cover and vinyl...definitely worth the buzz among the deepest of diggers. Beautiful haunting vocals and acoustic guitar work by Janet throughout, not a weak musical moment in it's entire length. A generous handful of wonderful original songs penned by Janet herself as well as an amazing version of Arlo Guthrie's "Now and Then". I have set the opening price low with no reserve, so don't miss out on this one. Thanks for viewing my auction.

please note: eBay has recently changed their policy on what is an acceptable rating score for detailed seller rating feedback...basically any rating less than 4.75 stars out of 5 is considered quite bad from now on by eBay and can actually prevent sellers from posting any new items for sale...I know it sounds rather harsh on their part, but unfortunately it is also true. Please take this into account if you decide to leave detailed feedback ratings for any of my items here on eBay. I truly do try my absolute hardest to make buyers happy with their transaction, quite often losing some money on shipping/packaging costs in order to hopefully retain my status as someone that can continue to sell future items. So please do leave 5 stars if you kindly would so that I can continue selling wonderful & rare records here on eBay. I sincerely thank you for taking the time to read this. I know it might seem a little annoying, but I feel it is absolutely necessary at this point to share this knowledge with all buyers and sellers so that it is completely understood by all.
