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.

Stone MINT ~~ STILL IN FACTORY CELLOPHANE ~~ - BEAUTIFUL COPY !!
- Although this is very scarce as it's literally from 30 or more (not less than) years ago , it could, and has been mistaken for a 1966 original pressing ... this pressing is THAT close with thick cardboard cover and just "has the appearance." Very Rolling Stones, Animals British Invasion inspired with touches of USA garage sounds of the 60's - the entirety of both sides, all tracks provide for entertaining listen. No wonder why original pressings for for up to $1000 figures and rightly so (depending on condition.)
- This copy looks unplayed - smooth as glass and NO markings on label.
- We don't think it was ever played. Again, scarce - not around - pressing that has fooled even the seasoned dealers ....
THE OTHER HALF members were:
- "Bob Collett" (vocals),
- "Andrea Inganni" (vocals),
- "Don Karr" (bass keys on "Farfisa Compact Organ", "Fender Bass"),
- "John Hawkins" (bass),
- "Dominick Puccio" (guitar, "Fender Bass"),
- "Rex Lamb" (fuzz guitar),
- "Cranleigh Sammis" (drums).
- THE OTHER HALF lasted for just two years (1966-1967) and recorded just one self financed Privately Pressed LP in 1966 - the Self-Titled "The Other Half" album. This LP is Legendary, and is considered to be one of the best Obscure "Garage Rock" Lps from the sixties.
THE OTHER HALF album was Recorded in the Spring of 1966 on the top floor of the Oasis Hotel in Camden NJ (just across the river from Philadelphia) in a small for-hire recording studio.
THE OTHER HALF had a solid Northeastern sound, but with a little more Garage Punk Edge than their regional competition. Their eponymous album THE OTHER HALF was Released on the 7/2 Records Label # HS-1/2 with only 100 Copies Pressed. the LP included 2 cool originals, and the rest were Rhythm'n'Blues and British Invasion covers performed with a tough edge and in a crude manner, on the rowdy side. ("Gloria" by Them; "Satisfaction", "Time Is On My Side" and "As Tears Go By" by The Rolling Stones; "Time Won't Let Me" by The Outsiders,'Talkin' 'Bout You' by "The Animals" ...etc.).
A second album was planned, to be recorded Spring of 1967, but one of the group members was expelled from The Hill School, a prep school where the group was attending, just days before the recording was to take place.
