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 +21,000 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.

The mighty JANUS a band of British longhair "heads" who fled England and into the KRAUTROCK explosion happening at the turn of 1970, establishing themselves in Krefeld, Germany. Their album, "Gravedigger," was recorded and launched on the long gone 'Harvest' records label. The absolute-essential heavy Psych Prog-rock album kicks off with the monster hard-ripping space-themed favorite "Red Sun," a power charged acid-beast as one will ever find hope to find. Followed by the eerie "Bubbles" and then the indescribable "Watch Tryin' To Do" featuring unconventional verses, reversed arrangement, and phased drums, all showcasing total originality.
"I Wanna Scream" injects killer-rated unbridled energy. Then album concludes with a unique, 20-minute-plus track on side two, offering a theme dealing with man's final moments on a lonely beach, enriched with a classical Spanish guitar solo, expanding cosmic backdrop, seagulls, and the sound of waves, etc; creating a mesmerizing sound tapestry. "Gravedigger" is essential listening for lovers of early 70's psychedelia One of the greatest of "Krautrock" glories amid scent of Incense and Peppermints in the glorious expressive backdrop. GRAVEDIGGER is a sparkling effervescent blend of fuzzy acid guitar riffing, heavenly harmonies, and swirling echoy vocals (constantly) phasing in and out of the mix... your next-up favorite album
