  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 become 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.

RARE ...1966 original ......The Mystery Trend were one of the original San Francisco bay area pyschedelic garage groups, formed in 1965. Sadly they are for the most part forgotten by most people associated with that scene with the exception of Flamin' Groovies leader Cyril Jordan who has gone on record saying they were one of the top groups of the early SF scene. But like other worthy SF groups such as The Other Half, Final Solution, The Serpent Power, Frumious Bandersnatch & others their legacy is this one 45 that was released during their lifespan.
"Johnny Was A Good Boy" is most certainly an impressive debut recording that rivals the best acts of their era. The song is well constructed and confident, it is driven along with a fuzz bass similar to Jefferson Airplane's Jack Casady. The overall feel is that of Moby Grape fused with mid 70's era Flamin' Groovies with even a slight hint of The Easybeats "Friday On My Mind." The subject matter of the lyrics is unclear, we've heard a few rumors but will leave them alone.
