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. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity 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. 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. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio 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.

MID 70s THICK gatefold cover
David Chalmers was known as an impressive guitarist, that being said, and is obvious when listening to this refreshing album is a departure from the normal “guitar hero” mold. Chalmers vocals are soft and quite appealing, the songs are subtle, the guitar playing is terrific (but tasteful and subdued), and the arrangements include plenty of guitar and keys. At times this is more like a folk-rock or singer songwriter album than a heavy guitar record. The often moody songwriting is as strong as the performances. Therefore it comes highly recommended.
Much like in the way that Neil Young was displeased at his first album mix, David Chalmers changed up just after the initial release and instead of the hard guitar rock track that openes the album, replaces it (same year of initial '70s release pressing) with "Dear Friends," a gorgeous, infectious dreamy ballad that’s probably his best song of all. This edition of the legendary cult album has a completely different feel from the dissatisfied with initial release. Elsewhere, the formidable flow of songs on side two stream altogether more cohesively evoking an overall pleasant "private '70s press" surprise.
One of those albums that get stronger the more it's played.
