Description

When I used the word rare in this ad I was dead serious & did not use it lightly. This l.p. is supposed to be more like megarare. The title is Temptation Rise and it is Xian music. The band though is Black Merda who put out a great psych funk album back in 1970. They only put out the one l.p. plus a 45. Black Merda was Roosevelt Veasey, Anthony Hawkins, Charles Hawkins & Tyrone Hite who passed away in 2004. So this Temptation Rise l.p. was Black Merda plus several other musicians. I'd say the pressing was from the early to mid 1970's. The guy I got this from told me the music is psych funk & also that he had found 2 copies. Both have mildew on the cover. It's light on the front & should be able to be cleaned off. It has the appearance of dirt. The back cover has it just around the perimeter but it's a bit more noticeable. As I stated, the other copy had mildew as well but the vinyl was perfect. The apparent mildew isn't heavy enough to do damage. So all in all this is a darn nice copy. I have to place a reasonable reserve on this because of the rarity. Leave me feedback & I will return the favor. Shipping is 3.00 U.S. media, 7.00 U.S. priority, 14.00 air to most other countries. I ship on Saturdays. My overseas customers are very important to me but I cannot be responsible for uninsured packages.
