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. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance 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. Please keep in mind 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 and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI 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.

Here...PINNACLE...the famous HIGH WIRED guitar driven heavy-psycher...who shredded away the hardrock competition, and released but one lethal album ((ASSASSIN)) back in 1974:
This British hard rock group recorded and self-released their debut LP in 1974, an album that has remained a hot collector's item amongst underground rock enthusiasts, for years. Archivists of obscure psychedelia and underground music Little Wing Records reissued the album in an amazing package and issuing a micro-pressing of 500 copies only = destined for equal obscurity as the firt press. Don't let the scarceness of the album lead you to believe there is any secret tangent you have not heard before. Thin Lizzy, Groundhogs, and countless U.K. rockers explored this hardrock territory in the '70s ...and if the mighty Pinnacle blew them all away, that was a hidden secret back then, only known to a small cult following... now lying buried in the dusty closet of history, as a footnote for the hardcore collector.
These guys where certainly onto a fairly early HEAVYROCK sound somewhat similar to early Deep Purple, although we're pretty sure this bands real biggest influence was the mighty Hawkwind in the early days with those pummeling raw rhythms driving away....
A rare privately-pressed album by a Liverpool heavy rock band. The spelling of the title is theirs. Musically, this is a sonic assault with pounding drums and bass and frenzied guitar/keyboards action. Powerful stuff indeed. A sort of heavy metal long before there was such a thing. Clearly of interest to heavy rock fans.
