Comments: A couple very interesting things about this record. It appears to be autographed by the band. The only member of this Chicago based group that I know by name is Ricky Erickson and you can see his autograph on the a-side label right under the publishing credits in the pink portion of the label. Another interesting fact about this particular copy is that the labels were switched during pressing. When you go to play the a-side, it actually plays the b-side. It can be verified if you look at the amount of dead wax on each side. The b-side, which is an instrumental, clocks in at one minute shorter than the a-side. So, the side that plays the longer song, "Open Up Your Mind", has a much smaller dead wax area. Here are mp3 samples taken directly from the record for auction. I left a little of the lead-in groove and I did a quick fade out after about a minute and a half of the a-side (and only about half a minute of the b-side) . I used a mono cartridge for these sound samples (if you'll be using a stereo cartridge for this when you win, it probably won't sound as good as the samples included. Either sum the channels to mono or invest in a mono cartridge for playing 45s like this, you'll be extremely happy you did! Here's the clip of "Open Up Your Mind". And the clip of "B.G.'s One Eye". If you have any problems playing the clips, just send me an e-mail and I'll help you out. And of course if you have any further questions, just let me know. Thanks!
My records are always shipped in specially made high quality cardboard record mailers with filler pads to act as extra shock absorbers. I don't mess around when it comes to records. So far, knock on wood, not one broken or even a slightly damaged record that I have mailed.

Payment must be received within 7 days of your purchase. PayPal is the only form of payment I can accept. If you have multiple purchases, please let me know so I can send you an invoice with your discounted shipping and handling charges.
For my customers in the United States, there will be no additional charge for the 2nd 45 shipped in the same package. After the 2nd 45, you'll only pay 25 cents for each additional 45 you purchase. Above a certain point, 13 ounces, I can't use First Class mail so I will have to use Media Mail or Priority Mail. Due to their different sizes, 45s and LPs will not be shipped together. If you plan on purchasing two different formats, you will have to pay separate shipping charges. We both want these records to arrive to you safely. For combined shipping & handling charges for non-U.S. customers, please write to me with the exact list of records you wish to purchase and I will give you the shipping quote.
I will only accept a return if for some reason the item isn't as described. If any damage incurs while in transit, that is obviously not my fault. I encourage the use of shipping insurance on all orders, but that's completely up to you. Only the actual cost of the item(s) will be refunded if the item is returned within 7 days. I cannot refund shipping and/or handling costs.
I don't feel like my grading is liberal nor is it conservative. I simply state the grade as I see it with my eyes and hear it with my ears. Just to clarify, NM = Near Mint; VG = Very Good; and a + or - will make it a slightly higher or slightly lower grade, respectively. I rarely list anything less than VG but when I do, it'll be something outstanding. G = Good; F = Fair, and P = Poor. If there is anything remarkable, I will make note of it after the grade. Regarding pictures of labels, please take note. Spindle marks do not always show up on digital photographs, don't ask me why. If spindle marks are something that bothers you, please e-mail me and ask if the listed record has them unless I have mentioned it.
Overall, I'm very concerned with customer satisfaction. If you're courteous with me, I'll be the same with you. Please consider this before leaving negative feedback. If something isn't as I have described it above, please bring it to my attention promptly. I'm only human and I know you are too, so you and I both know what it's like to make a mistake every now and then.
