PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. 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. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. 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.

ADVANCED RELEASE WHITE LABEL PROMOTIONAL
Heart's second effort, mid '70s "LITTLE QUEEN", was another strong and classic release for the band, despite the fact that they were caught up in a nightmarish legal wrangle with their former record label (who issued the half-finished album MAGAZINE shortly after LITTLE QUEEN, against the band's wishes).
Includes the double sided lyrics inner sleeve
The raging and venomous "Barracuda" remains one of Heart's best rock tracks, while the gorgeous "Love Alive" is an engaging acoustic number. With LITTLE QUEEN, Heart solidified their standing as one of the late-'70s biggest hard rock acts, possessing the perfect mixture of good looks and great hooks.
The LP underscores their dual strengths: ferocious rockers (“Kick It Out,” “Barracuda”) and delicate acoustic numbers (“Love Alive,” “Cry to Me”). “Dream of the Archer,” with its regal mandolin and harmonies, conjures the band’s idols, Led Zeppelin ; the title track is a smoldering blues-rock lope; and “Kick It Out” is a feisty, Rolling Stones -esque strut. Still, the album is more consistent than Heart’s debut, 1976’s Dreamboat Annie — and it feels rougher around the edges, albeit in subtle ways.
And then there’s “Barracuda,” which we described, in our look at the Top 100 Classic Rock Songs , as “Stacked, Zeppelin-esque riffs rumble with the power of a buffalo stampede in tandem with the galloping drumming and [Ann Wilson’s] powerhouse voice — an instrument that’s simultaneously operatic, twang-touched and blues-based.” Wilson’s rage at the misogyny she’d already experienced in the music business informed the song’s poetic lyrics. The stance Heart took in the song crystallized a galvanizing, pro-women message and her sister still speak out about today.
