 SUPERB NR MINT 180 GRAM RISE ABOVE RECORDS LIMITED EDITION OF 500 ISSUE OF  " LOST " EARLY PROG ROCK CLASSIC & STILL RETAINS ITS SHRINKWRAP, THE PRESS RELEASE BEHIND THIS ALBUM WAS AS FOLLOWS :-




" In 2014 Rise Above prepared to celebrate their 25th Anniversary as an independent label and so it seems fitting that Record Collector should release a compilation album of their material. Founded by former Napalm Death lead singer Lee Dorrian in 1988, Rise Above started off releasing punk hardcore records but over time broadened its roster like a rainbow with output ranging from Doom metal to a limited edition reissue of Mellow Candles’ Swaddling Songs.

Dorrian combined helming Rise Above with professional duties fronting his band Cathedral and as a collector himself has always taken great pains to put out as many Rise Above records on vinyl as he possibly can. He has also overseen the release of limited edition special editions many of which are now are collectable and fetch big prices of eBay. Basically, Rise Above is a very collectable label.

As a long-standing reader of Record Collector, Dorrian compiled the album and put together an ear-watering selection of unheard tracks or rarities. Thus, there are unreleased tracks by Moss, Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell, Gentleman's Pistols, Blood Ceremony, Horisont and his own band Cathedral. Then there is the impossible to find Down To The Fire by Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats, an early demo by Astra as well as the first release on vinyl of Wool by Purson. Musically, this compilation drops anchor in the sort of ports that many Record Collector readers love from progressive rock (Astra) to the swagger of Black Sabbath (Cathedral).


Limited to 500 copies worldwide, and coming inside a striking sleeve by Arik Roper all tracks have been re-mastered for this special release and come in a sumptuous gatefold sleeve. "

FOR ITEMS THAT SELL DOMESTIC UK DELIVERY WILL HAVE TO BE BY RECORDED SIGNED FOR DELIVERY  THIS IS TO PREVENT FRAUDULANT CLAIMS OF NON RECEIPT. 

FOR INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE SEE MY NOTES BELOW - GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL!!

 

NON UK BUYERS PLEASE NOTE MY COMMENTS REGARDING INTERNATIONAL MAIL BELOW...RETURNS POLICY ONLY APPLICABLE TO UK..RETURNS OUTSIDE UK BUYER WILL HAVE TO COVER ALL POSTAGE COSTS Furthermore international bidders please also note that due to ebays new "buyer protection " policy many sellers now refuse to sell internationally anymore. I am not one of those sellers yer but please note I do now reserve the right to refuse to complete a sale to any international bidder that may have low or bad feedback or for any other reason and this is especially so if the item sells for over GBP 100, like I say this is purely a result of ebay/paypals new policy that make it now even harder for sellers to  trade safely internationally. Please bare this in mind if you win an item but find that it has been offered first instead to a domestic UK Bidder.

FOR BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK THIS IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT...   I have recently been the victim of serveral spurious bids from several different members (usually based in the Russian Federation). Please note that if you win any of my items and have zero feedback I will ask you for immediate payment or for you to email and immediately confirm that you were a genuine bidder. Failiure to meet either of those critiera will result in the item being  offered to the next highest bidder without further delay. thank you. ALL MY RECORDS ARE USUALLY SOLD ON VISUAL GRADINGS ONLY, THEREFORE ( WITH THE SINGULAR EXCEPTION OF THOSE RARE OCCASSIONS WHERE I DO STATE THEY HAVE BEEN PLAY GRADED ) AS ALL DISCS ARE 2ND HAND ANY PLAYING DEFECTS ARE CAVIAT EMPTOR AND SO ARE NOT ANY BASIS FOR A REFUND. HOWEVER YOU MAY STILL TRADE WITH CONFIDENCE AS I DO  REFUND  WHEREVER AN ACTUAL GRADING OF MINE IS EVER DISPUTED.

(Please note that whilst I try to endeavour to adhere to strict RC gradings I will never describe ANYTHING AS MINT even when I think it to be so. As far as I am concerned any secondhand item by definition cannot be mint. However if I believe an item to be Mint  I will instead either use the terms Near Mint, mint minus, or in archive or vault condition. When I use these terms you know that in my opinion this is in effect a de-facto Mint grade )

 

Dont forget to take a look at my other items. Please feel free to contact me with any queries you may have.

                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I APOLOGISE IN ADVANCE TO THOSE BUYERS WHO SEEM TO EXPECT THEIR ITEM TO ARRIVE THE NEXT DAY, IF YOU WANT TO CHECK WHEN AN ITEM WAS SENT JUST PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AND I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO TELL YOU!!

                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PAYMENTS BY PAYPAL ARE PREFERRED BUT I ALSO ACCEPT OTHER METHODS. I ALSO POST WORLDWIDE (PLS APPLY FOR RATES) BUT DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A DISREPUTABLE BUYER IN JAPAN (PIGGIESSS - I AM HAPPY TO NAME THEM) , FOR ALL PAYMENTS MADE VIA PAYPAL THE ITEM WILL ONLY BE SENT BOTH TO THE UK AND WORLDWIDE BY RECORDED OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR DELIVERY. THIS IS TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY ATTEMPT TO CLAIM BACK THE PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL EVEN AFTER ACTUALLY HAVING RECEIVED THE ITEM.

 

THIS OBVIOUSLY HAS HAD THE RESULT OF INCREASING MY COSTS FOR POSTING AND PACKING AND I AM VERY SORRY FOR THIS BUT PAYPAL OFFER NO PROTECTION FOR SELLERS UNLESS THERE IS PROOF OF DELIVERY!! PROOF OF POSTING WOULD SEEM INSUFFICIENT TO THEM AND I HAVE FOUND THIS OUT THE HARD WAY..

 

DUE TO THE BEHAVIOUR OF THIS SAME BUYER PAYPAL PAYMENTS WILL ALSO NOT BE ACCEPTED FROM BUYERS WHO DO NOT ALLOW THEIR FEEDBACK TO BE READ,
