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. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP $4.00 Media; 2-4 discs $5.00; .50 each additional disc Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

~ RARE 1973 ORIGINAL ~
Prog/Jazz GERMAN FREE FORM UNDERGROUND PROGRESSIVE
ASSOCIATION P.C.
Erna Morena
\ USA - BASF RECORDS - MB 21542
Pretty scarce original 1973 underground progressive rock from the 'Krautrock' scene, thee original USA unipack gatefold pressing in clean condition....
Association P. C. recorded some five albums, yet remain virtually unknown. The fact is, with no commercial potential, there was never much prospect of hearing the milkman whistling a cheery little number by Association P. C., given that they set out expressly to "transcend the boundaries of traditional forms" of music. This they did with considerable accomplishment, involving the talents at various times of some of Europe's best progressive musicians:
-Toto Blanke/ Guitars-Jasper van't Hof/ E-Piano, Organ
-Siggi Busch/ Bass, Kontrabass
-Pierre Curbois/ Drums, Percussion guest:
-Karl H. Wiberny/ reeds
"Erna Morena" is one of the two live recordings from 1972 and released in 1973 by the band, and that was very much in keeping with what they were doing (ala Soft Machine circa 1970). From the LP liner notes: "The term "free"", in the context of "freeform music", "after being used in the 60s mainly to mean "beyond tonality, melody and metre"...now stands for an entirely new quality of musical freedom in the music of Association P.C ....it signifies really sovereign mastery over all musical areas." Judging by what is heard within, there are no grounds to dispute that statement. The P.C. in the title refers to Pierre Courbois, the drummer and the group contained people who were known in Northern European early 70s music circles - in particular keyboardist Jasper van't Hof and guitarist Toto Blanke, whose later 70s group Electric Circus gets mentioned in the recent Krautrock discographies.
