First solo LP by none other than former REM guitarist & friend Peter Buck. Believe it or not, released on vinyl only by Mississippi Records (No CD or download available anywhere) ...& it gets weirder. This LP was cut pure analogue - straight from tape to disc. A real old fashioned freak out record filled with Stooges like crunchy guitar riffs, strange atmospheric sounds, far out dark lyrics & some catchy pop hooks here & there. Peter & various friends you've probably heard of, gathered at Type Foundry Studio here in Portland & laid out this record fast & furious. A real madcap journey of a record put together with nothing but love & a sense of immediacy. Peter & friends are taking things back to a simpler time when you could walk down to your local record shop/label & say, "hey, check out my new record...you wanna put it out?" We said, "Sure!" Straight from the heart - here tis'. Former R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck announced on his former band's website today that he will release his first solo album. It will only be available as a limited-edition pressing of 2,000 vinyl copies. "I know I said for years that I would never make a solo record," Buck wrote. "It was never a plan or a desire but it just kind of happened. When R.E.M. called it a day, I'd spent the last three months on my back with a semi-crippling injury unable to play guitar. With my band gone and unable to use the fingers on my right hand, I started writing lyrics just to have something creative to do." The album features a handful of special guests, including Sleater-Kinney's Corin Tucker, the Decemberists' Jenny Conlee, Patti Smith guitarist Lenny Kaye and longtime collaborators Bill Rieflin and Scott McCaughey (both of whom Buck plays with in the Minus 5 and the Venus 3, Robyn Hitchcock's current touring band). Tucker and McCaughey contributed vocals to the record, and McCaughey wrote some melodies. In his post, Buck said that "95 percent" of the lyrics and most of the music was his doing. He called the album "the first thing I have ever been involved in where I was actually in charge and the record turned out to be kind of like a trip through my mind, all of the kinds of music I love, played with some of my favorite musicians, in a completely one-take spontaneous atmosphere." Earlier this summer, Buck's first solo track, "10 Million BC," appeared online after airing on an episode of the WFMU radio show Diane's Kamikaze Fun Machine. Limited edition LP not to be missed. Limited edition of 2,000.  Includes the original insert.

Sealed LP Inspection Service

Since all of our items are factory sealed we cannot be fully responsible for the condition of the invisible part, unless you ask us to inspect it.  Even though incorrect, defective or damaged product is very rare, we highly recommend that you allow us to inspect your item before we ship it.  Just let us know by writing INSPECT in the note to seller box when paying via PayPal.

 

If there is something wrong with your record that could only have been seen by such inspection, and you did not request it, we will not be responsible for the cost of shipping the faulty product back here, or for the shipping of a replacement item to you. We will replace the faulty item, however, as long as you pay for these freight costs.

Also, many LP buyers prefer to have the disc shipped outside the jacket to minimize damage to the jacket.  If you have requested that we inspect the disc, then we will pack it outside the jacket.

International Customers

International customers; the rates shown for shipping do not apply to you.  Please input your country on the "Shipping and payments" tab above to see the rates.  If you intend on buying more than 1 LP, please  please allow us to invoice you at the time of your purchase so that you can get the best deal.

If you're in a country other than U.S. or Canada, please note you'll get the best per-unit price and fastest delivery on your LP shipments by ordering at least 4 discs at a time.

We enclose an actual invoice with your shipment and do not falsify customs valuations.

If you are at an address where there are customs duties, and you have ordered an amount that puts you just over the limit for avoidance of such duties, we are willing to do you the service of discounting the merchandise a little upon request, if you will allow us to make up for it with an equivalent increase in shipping and handling fees. We would want your agreement to give us good rankings for fair shipping/handling fees in such instances.

Please Note: Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.

Insurance

Like all eBay sellers, we're required to ensure that every shipment reaches the buyer in good condition. For that reason every eBay seller is self-insuring, and must build that cost into their selling price and/or shipping/handling fees. Nevertheless, if you wish to buy your own insurance, you may. Simply ask us to include insurance prior to payment.
