Description
More PSYCH and Classic 1960's Rock LPs from a fanatically well-kept collection of a long-time former DJ
Mostly 1st PRESSINGS, including a good amount of PROMOs and a few choice IMPORT LPs.
Many of these still in SHRINK WRAP ...several STILL SEALED
Quite a few WLP, Sterling, RL and Masterdisk pressings in the mix!
*Sadly I am NOT FAST at listing and am lucky to get around 50 up at a time, but they will keep on coming (as I pause between each auction series to focus on top level packing and immediate shipping) throughout this fall, several hundred to list, so keep checking back.
.
USA Shipping: FREE ...no matter how many LPs
International Shipping Worldwide at EXACT POSTAGE Only cost
Please NOTE:
Some of my PHOTOS suffer from LOW LIGHT lighting conditions (due to very cloudy / rainy days recently).
This causes unavoidable grain and spottiness in image, particularly on dark covers / labels and especially the vinyl.
I apologize for that and assure all bidders that such grain/spots are Digital Artifacts only - are not actually present
on these LP Covers / labels / vinyl themselves at all - and DO NOT properly represent the true condition.
My camera simply is not able to resolve fine detail in low light ...especially on the vinyl grooves.
In any such case, please always refer to the written grade and description for accurate condition details.
*some of the vinyl is appearing like unearthed ancient archeological artifacts or mars-scapes (!)
If this could have been at all avoided it would have been. ...hopefully new camera soon!
Please see my FEEDBACK and bid with complete confidence.

1970 FIRST PRESSING with Original BUTTERFLY labels and Black ELEKTRA inner sleeves.?
This double album remains a valuable collectible in that it contains material the Doors didn't release on their studio albums, it's also tilted toward some of their Morrison's boorish aspects. Recorded at concerts in 1969 and 1970, this was an era in which Jim Morrison was becoming increasingly dissolute and increasingly pissed at the whole rock machine, tossing flippant asides to the audience between songs. As for the music, the haunting "Universal Mind" and the basic blues-rocker "Build Me a Woman" are originals that are not found on any DOORS studio albums; the controversial "The Celebration of the Lizard" - an extended opus that is as much cryptic poetry recitation as music. There are also extended versions of "Soul Kitchen," "Break On Through," and "When the Music's Over" that are considerably different in comparison to the studio versions. One thing great about experiencing the DOORS in concert was the certainty that Morrison & the band would almost always deliver tracks with different lyrics; sometimes injecting bits of poetry, madness and impromptu jamming... you get a taste of that with this album.
Compiled from live performances recorded in cities throughout the U.S. between August, 1969 and June, 1970.
