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. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP = $4.00 Media Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

1971 BRITISH ORIG!
UNDERRATED UNDERGROUND ROCK
..|/\|...............................................|/\|..
- Luther Grosvenor
- Under Open Skies
- ..|/\|...............................................|/\|..
- TOP COPY!
- Final Collection Copy
- 49 Years Ago ~ 1971 U.K. ONLY GATEFOLD ORIGINAL
Still pretty much UNKNOWN and/or underestimated SOLO LP by original flash guitarist Luther Grosvenor Of '60s/early '70s - Spooky Tooth.
- Grosvenor on to star in the *best* band Mott The Hoople ever put together!
- Released ONLY in England, 1971 on the pink rimmed Island label.
- ........................................................................
- All star cast here is backing the underrated guitarist, Grosvenor on this LP - who was responsible for all the sinister cutting edge riffing & lead guitar parts on Spooky Tooths' best Lp's, 1968 through 1974.
- ...................................................................
-
MOtt The Hoople plucked guitarist Grosvenor from the ashes of Spooky Tooth, changed his name to Ariel Bender and went on to fame and fortune when Mott The Hoople became a world-wide success in the early '70s. -
UNDER OPEN SKIES, finds a surprisingly strong result, mainly due to the all-star cast of x-King Crimson, Spooky Tooth and The Move members fleshing out the decidedly rustic & pleasant self penned tunes...Luthers voice is smooth and easy to listen to. The layered guitars and Beatles style melodies make for a winning disc which retains the (ex-King Crimson founding members) "McDonald & Giles" LP styles throughout.
Bass – Trevor Burton (The Move) Drums – Mike Giles (King Crimson), Mike Kellie (Spooky Tooth) Guitar, Bass, Lead Vocals – Luther Grosvenor (Spooky Tooth) Harmony Vocals – Jim Capaldi (Traffic), Mick Ralphs (Mott The Hoople , Bad Company)
