 Mad Season - Above - NEW original Still Sealed vinyl LP! This is a brand new and unplayed copy from my store stock of the original 1995 pressing of this amazing classic double vinyl LP!!! In fact it is still in the original factory sealed shrink wrap! The shrink wrap is just starting to split along the top seam but the record cover within is virtually perfect!

ok already had 5 offers and there are 15 watchers! the last copy sold on ebay was open and played and went for $81! so i think this is more than fair for a SEALED copy! c'mon! bring it on... get it while you can!

Mad Season was an American rock band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1994 by members of three popular Seattle-based bands: Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam and Screaming Trees. Mad Season only released one album, Above, and is best known for the single "River of Deceit". The band went on a semi-permanent hiatus in 1996 due to the band members' conflicting schedules and vocalist Layne Staley's problems with substance abuse. Attempts were made in the late 1990s to revive the group without Staley, however the band dissolved following the death of bassist John Baker Saunders in 1999.

     From 1989 - 2000 I had a record shop in Bridgeport CT called Secret Sounds. Perhaps best known by Dave Grohl's wearing of my t-shirt on the cover of the Muddy Wishkah live album from Nirvana. We specialized in "alternative" music and imported many thousands of records and cds from Europe and Japan. Along came the internet and our mail order business exploded. After all the chains came on line with their preferential early info and treatment from major labels, our mail order business dwindled as quickly as it had grown. Coupled with the downloading of music and seeing a lot of my college age customers having the new releases burned off the internet weeks before the official release, I decided to close the shop. I placed all of my remaining inventory in a climate controlled storage space... a virtual time capsule of a 1990's indie shop a la Hi Fidelity.  Now I am moving forward on selling off this inventory which has been resting comfortably these last 7 years. I have thousands of records, 12”, 7”, 10”, Cd’s, videos, toys, stickers, and posters.  Many are on small labels which had limited release. All my inventory dates from the last century! Please feel free to contact me for more info.

     I am extremely careful in my shipping and packing. I use very sturdy cardboard mailers and LP size stiffeners. Most records shipped from overseas arrive without shrinkwrap and I place them in pvc sleeves. For these records I will remove the records from the covers WITH EXTREME CARE handling only by edges and place in another pvc sleeve, this eliminates any possibility of cover splits in shipping. For factory sealed records I do not offer this option. Sealed records will be shipped as is in same strong mailers. I do not have a shrinkwrap machine and all records marked as SS are truly brand new unplayed and factory sealed. I strongly urge you to take the optional insurance (where available) as all new vinyl sales are one way sales. Any damage in shipping should be covered by your insurance. I do have multiple copies of some items and condition may vary slightly from the record shown. I do make every effort to note if there are flaws in the covers... if something new is obviously bent or anything i would use a fresh picture of the exact item, but remember most everything is brand new store stock unless noted!

     I will combine shipping for multiple items wherever possible. I charge the  exact postage costs plus $2 for the strong mailer and handling. Thanks for looking!
