Description
PLEASE READ THE POSTAGE DETAILS BEFORE BIDDING.
With Christmas just around the corner, this is an ideal opportunity to get the person who doesn't need anything something rare and unusual.
Unpacking boxes after moving house and came across a box of LPs! I never bothered to replace my record player when it died a few years ago so why I have hung onto these I don't know - that is the trouble with storage units!
This disc has two 30 minute concerts both with a copyright date of 1977 and was released, presumably, in the US on the BBC TS label. Pop Spectacular was the forerunner to In Concert, and these two sets are by Racing Cars and Eddie and the Hot Rods. There is nothing fancy about the packaging - a plain yellow sleeve, but from memory these were rather rare recordings, especially these earlier releases, and there doesn't seem to be many on ebay. This disc comes with two A4 information sheets, but these are not the original cue sheets.
Racing Cars: Moonshine Fandango, Calling The Tune, Down Town Tonight, Swampy, They Shoot Horses Don't They?, Get Out and Get It.
Eddie And The Hot Rods: Teenage Depression, Keep On Keeping On, I Might Be Lying, Been So Long, Horseplay, Hard Driving Man, On The Run, Still Life
I bought this (and the others I am listing) off of ebay from a chap in the States over ten years ago, and was stunned at how clean they were then - second hand records often look like someone has eaten their dinner off of them - and I have only played them a few times so there will be little more than very light surface scratches.
To ensure they get to the winner safe and sound I will be packing them in card mailers with stiffeners in and sending by recorded or special delivery. This isn't the cheapest method, but assuming you bid because you wanted the disc, this is the nearest I can do to guarantee you get it in pristine condition. I will happily send overseas and charge postage at cost, but will use a tracked method such as International Signed For.
PAYMENT IS EXPECTED WITHIN 4 DAYS OF THE AUCTION END. I have the builders coming for major work a week after the auction closes, and will have restricted access to practically everything while bits are knocked about. If payment isn't received before that, the item won't be shipped for a fortnight after (if I can believe the builders when they say they will have finished the main stuff!)
POSTAGE:
UK: The price listed (as ebay cap it) is for items selling under £46 only or those sent with inadequate insurance.
If the item sells for less than £46, it will be covered in the UK using Recorded Delivery and is sort of tracked. If lost then the loss will be limited to £46. I recommend insurance to cover the total it sells for and Special Delivery is available and flexible, for additional cost (£7 covers the mailer, stiffeners and insurance up to £500, and is next day, so you get your hands on the item quicker!).
OVERSEAS: This will vary by country and can range from £10 - £20 depending on where you are and what service is available. Insurance also varies, so please check with me beforehand. - I have given and indication in the listing but, like investments, can go up or down :)
