Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. 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 by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use 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 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.

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!

TOP COPY THE MIGHTY 1969 ORIGINAL
POWER PSYCH BLUES JAMS!
TEN YEARS AFTER
SSSSH!
\ USA - DERAM RECORDS - SML 1052
TOP COPY!
1969 first pressing pressing vinyl on the old Deram Records label...in nice thick and CLEAN gatefold cover... included is the original 1969 printed DEREAM RECORDS inner sleeve ... Arguably the best TEN YEARS AFTER album, a blasting blitzkrieg of British bluesrock with a psych twist and lots of turned on jamming (dig the throbbing bass lines throughout) ...
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Vastly underrated, the band freshly off their heroic WOODSTOCK performance, delivers an intense, tightly wound pulsating throbber...right off the bat "BAD SCENE" may be even better than their signature somg "I'm Going Home", a torrid ripper that never lets up...other highlights include the pounding cruncher "Stoned Woman" and both performance show-stoppers "I Woke Up This Morning" and "Good Morning Little School Girl" , (both) lengthy jammers with fiery heated Alvin Lee guitar theatrics, blitzing off the fretboard ... all in all, classic winner of the times...
1969's "Ssssh" proved to be the album that broke the band commercially in the US. Produced by Alvin Lee and company, it also happens to be the tightest and most interesting album they'd released. The album certainly sold well, hitting # 20 in the States. Largely written by Lee, the set still found the band finally beginning to move away from their roots, towards more of a conventional hard, high energy rock sound. While blues remained the predominant genre and the focus remained on Alvin Lee's blazing guitar, this time around the band came together as a very tight performing unit. Tracks such as 'Bad Scene' and the blazing 'Stoned Woman' may be the most exciting thing you've ever heard this band ever play as the band's playing is red hot, injecting a surprising amount of heat and passion into the proceedings. 'Good Morning Little Schoolgirl' with slightly revamped ('dirty') lyrics ensured the song would never get US airplay, but did get plenty of regional underground FM radio play. Simply because they're so different than the rest of the album, the catchy flower-power ballads 'f You Should Love Me' and 'I Don't Know That You Don't Know My Name' are a welcome varied effort. Finally, it's always hard to pick an album as being an act's creative zenith, but "Ssssh" may well be the one for Ten Years After containing no weak tracks anywhere in sight ...
