Description
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 1971 LP ... DUTCH HIPPIE DUO FOLK & PSYCH MIXES
ELLY NIEMAN
&
RIKKERT ZUIDERVELD
De Draad Van Ariadne
Holland - EMI - 5C 054
Rare, obscure 1971 folk duo with acid mixes.... comes with the scarce lyrics printed double sided inner sleeve ...
When this album was recorded, in 1971, Elly and Rikkert were a Dutch stoner hippie couple and they made a lovely album. They also had a bit of a surprise hit in Holland with the song 'The Gum Ball Tree.' This, their first LP, is the best of the 4 LP's Elly & Rikkert made at the beginning of the 70's. Side one is sweeter folkrock and side two is acid folk featuring the 11+ minute 'The Philosophers Stone'....about Christians that like 'witches', wizzards and devils, really good acid-folk with the use of sitar flute & tablas... dig all the trippy whispering vocals with guitar, organ, hand drums, autoharp, sitar, etc...
