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.

1975 TOP COPY! ORIGINAL PRESSING
Robin Trower
For Earth Below
\ USA - CRYSALIS RECORDS - CHR 1073
MINT! ......... IN FACTORY CELLOPHANE!
Original 1975 first pressing ... the third TROWER guitar heavy album, issued shortly after A BRIDGE OF SIGHS...one of the bands two best Lp's!
Sounding much like a virtual continuation of his flagship release, "Bridge of Sighs", it could also be argued that this was an all-out attempt to replicate it. The sound is literally the same, and it follows the same systematic and formulaic approach to song writing. For Earth Below opens with "Shame the Devil", dwelling on the number of the beast in heavenly burning fashion and following the blues stomp of "Shame the Devil", which is augmented by Dewar's soulful throat, For Earth Below delivers the moody "It's Only Money". The pairing of "Confessing Midnight" and "Fine Day" fill-out the A-side, with Trower's ever-present Fender Stratocaster singin' sweet notes. The Hendrix influence shines on "Alethea", while "Gonna Be More Suspicious" cops liberally from "Born Under a Bad Sign". At just under six-trippin'-minutes, the atmospheric closing
"For Earth Below" is the longest number on the Lp and delivers a full cosmic cruise experience
All said, Bridge of Sighs is much more well known and gets all the press, but Robin Trower's guitar is just as sharp, thick, and drenched in reverb awesomeness here as on Bridge of Sighs. These songs simply cook, and Robin's Guitar burns violently as the noonday Sahara sun. If you want to know why Robin Trower is universally considered to be a guitar god, listen to For Earth Below and you'll find out.
