WITH MUCH APPRECIATION TO ALL OUR CUSTOMERS: If you have a question on orders received, please contact us. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. When leaving Feedback, please consider the following: eBay's policy on the 5-star rating system is anything less than a 5 reduces our standing with eBay and ultimately can affect our selling abilities. SO please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.
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!
MINTY CLEAN ~~ 1972 "MIRROR COVER" IN SHRINK WRAPPER!
LOOK AT YOURSELF
URIAH HEEP
USA - Mercury Records - SRM 1 614
ORIGINAL 1972 first pressing vinyl ...a remarkable copy,
***STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER and *CLEAN* ...this, the "MIRROR" COVER is nearly impossible to find without abrasions & scuffs to the 'mirror' ...TOP copy here, and proof of first pressing contains an old 'White Front' dept store sticker ... White Front was one of the great Los Angeles area places to buy records in the late 60's (classics & underground)...
tHe 3rd URIAH HEEP album was the bands heaviest...an all-out ripper that starts off with the head-tearring title track, hard driving surging hammond organ and razor guitar blasting, captivating vocals, tight and loud....
The opening tune, "Look At Yourself" will bless your ears with the rawest and strongest Hammond organ ever. Ken Hensley is playing like a possessed maniac. Song is quite simple in structure (two chords!) but the layering and developing is insane. This is a masterpiece of dynamics - one of the most important aspects of Uriah Heep's heavy rock offerings.
"I Wanna Be Free" contains loads of merry melodies and powerful chorus, while "July Morning" is an all-time epic. "Tears In My Eyes" and "What Should Be Done" are two more simple-structured songs, but both are very good, "Tears In My Eyes" leaning on a hard-rock side, while "What Should Be Done" is bluesy keys ballad.
"Shadows Of Grief" is one-hundred percent progressive rock madness and hard-rock song at the same time, utilising best from the both worlds. Insane vocal harmonies with complexity and beauty, equally insane guitar and organ interplays, dissonant and psychedelic parts, unpredictable changes - they are all participating in this beautiful insanity.
- "Look at Yourself" – 5:10
- "I Wanna Be Free" – 4:01
- "July Morning" – 10:32
- "Tears in My Eyes" – 5:01
- "Shadows of Grief" – 8:39
- "What Should Be Done" – 4:15
- "Love Machine" – 3:37
CONDITION: The cover is M- in original factory shrink wrapper (outer cellophane wrapper torn a little at top but still well protected and tight) ...very crisp and solid with 4 sharp corners...almost getting impossible to find the mirror cover SO clean ...every single copy found is usually well scuffed ...go and check the next 100 copies that come along for just that!
The vinyl is all clear and smooth M- top level
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
