This is an overall fine copy of a 1985 comp on the Cicadelic label of tracks recorded for the small Chicago-based Rembrandt label between 1966 and 1968.  The LP's title is a bit of a misnomer since all but one of its tracks were previously unreleased, though about half of those unreleased tracks are either alternate takes, alternate mixes, or stereo versions.  The best known songs (to collectors) will be the first two, the Lemon Drops' "I Live in the Springtime" (first reissued on volume 8 of the Pebbles series) and the Nuchez's "Open up Your Mind" (which was included on the first of the Chocolate Soup for Diabetics comps, despite the group's not being British).  The jacket has moderate to substantial creasing and wear in the corners, and mostly light creasing and wear along the spine and seams -- VG(+).  The disc, by contrast, is clean, and plays with a little light surface noise (not counting noise from source discs) (M-).

I’m in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their jackets. The jackets have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.

If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
