Kool and the Gang Instrumental Funk Acetate - Live Perf. Truetone

$

100

This is another mystery record brought to you by Cassidy Collectibles. It is a 10" recording of four songs performed live in what sounds like a gym - lots of echo - don't hear any crowd sounds. The label on one side says "Soul Express" at the top and "Chocolate Buttermilk" and "Sea of Tranquility" below the middle stripe and below that it says "Kool and the Gang". Both of those songs are from their 1969 self titled release. Side two has "Soul Express" below the blue stripe and then "Walk on the WildSide" below that. This is on Truetone Records (FE2-5736). I have tried to research this but my soul funk guys have not been really helpful. I know this label has popped up a few times but not with this recording. The record is VG with some scratches - it sticks in the dead wax at the beginning of one sides and between cuts - not during the songs. There are a few loud tics - I have been very weary of really cleaning this. The labels have some tears - very home made - the blue and red stripes are tape. It came in an "audiodiscs" sleeve. This is pretty typical of live recordings done at a fairly amateur level. Please ask questions. All grading is guaranteed to visual Goldmine standards (see my feedback) unless otherwise specifically described. Price includes delivery confirmation and/or insurance(78s) domestic. Up to five 45s ship for the same price domestically media. Priority mail and professional packaging is $10.00. I ship at least twice a week, usually on Mondays and Wednesdays, every item paid for by end of the day Sunday.  Important - media mail may take up to two weeks for delivery!!! Insurance is included on purchases of $50.00 or more. Sorry about the increase in international mail but the post office now charges me an average of $23.00 for one single LP - that does not consider the cost of the mailer, bubble wrap, and labels. Insurance and/or tracking for international sales is available at a much greater shipping cost (required for Portugal). The only way I can absolutely guarantee delivery internationally is with a tracking number or insurance. Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility. Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. We do not alter customs forms. International shipping via first class can take a month or more from the shipping date - we have no control over shipping time. Watch for my newly listed auction items - lots of rarities and just plain weird stuff. Remember a bid today will help keep my dog herd (unfortunately down to four as they are getting to be old - like me) in dog biscuits and me in Dos XX. Yes it is a "dry" heat - just the same as the sun.
