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 became 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. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

RARE 1974 PSYCHEDELIC UNDERGROUND ORIGINAL PRIVATE PRESS!

RARE '70s PRIVATE PRESS ...
ACID ARCHIVES UNDERGROUND HIPPIE PSYCH/PROG ZONER
Despite the Volume II sub title, this IS the 1st of 2 Lp's recorded by the USA underground band ...the volume one line-up never released anything ...
Wonderfully wigged out and enjoyably ridiculous religio-cosmic curio, with vaguely Father Yod-like (though not that off-key) mystical spieling counterpointed by deliciously blasted ethno-tripped acid rock. Hear passing flashes that really stakes out an idiosyncratic little musical island all it's own It has at loeast 5 things going for it:
1.) Co-produced by Gary Diamond and Sibley, the set boasted surprisingly sophisticated sound for a private press release. The set also boasted some great sound effects - it's one of those 'listen-to-with-headphones' collections.
2.) Singer/keyboardist Sibley and his significant other Marilena seemed totally committed to their mystical path bringing an admirable degree of enthusiasm to this eclectic set.
3.) Sibley had a decent voice that blended well with spouse Marilena's higher, pseudo-operatic backing.
4.) The set included some occasionally engaging musical interludes with nice backing from the band
5.) Some of the positive vibe lyrics sported a mid-1970's aura that's quite amusing ( "I circle around the boundaries of the earth, wearing my long wing feathers as I fly higher, higher, higher ..." )
Combine those ingredients and you had an album that was surprisingly fun to listen to. Besides, how could you not be interested in an album that sported a message from the noted Sufi scribe Harzat Inayet Khan: "Motion is the significance of life, and the law of motion is rhythm. Rhythm is life disguised in motion ... rhythm produced an ecstasy which is inexplicable, and incomparable with any other source of intoxication." Which is one of the best descriptions in the joy of music to ever come across.
