SHIPPING TIME AND RETURN POLICY:
SHIPPING: We ship within 2 business days of payment most of the time (orders place over the weekend won't be processed until the following Monday. We ship via USPS: First Class for CDs, Media Mail for vinyl, and First Class Mail International for overseas orders (orders over 4lb require Priority Mail International). Actual shipping time varies by destination.
RETURNS: We generally do not accept returns except if something is not as described, and we take care to make sure everything fits our description. Sometimes CDs or vinyl will have a "cut-out" slice or "promo punch" either in the corner or through the UPC code - we will include this in the description if applicable. If there is a problem with an item, contact us and we will figure out the best action to take. We do NOT accept returns if you decide you simply don't like the item, or have buyer's remorse - buy wisely, and ask questions if necessary. Damage incurred during shipping should be brought up with the carrier but is extremely rare as we box everything adequately, including using extra cardboard for protection.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMBINING SHIPPING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS WE SELL:
Use "Add To Cart". Before paying, there is a button marked "Ask Seller For A Total" - click this. Wait one business day for us to change the invoice or else it will charge you full shipping for each item (we will not refund extra shipping once paid). This may not work from a phone, only a computer. We have to change shipping by hand - typically we charge what is close to the actual cost with maybe a $1 USD handling fee per item to cover the cost of packing materials.
Item Summary:
Recently unearthed tapes from the estate of Elsie Bianchi, recorded 1968 at Chateau Fleur De Lis in Atlanta/ Georgia. Unknown repertoire of her Swiss trio, with Elsie and Siro Bianchi performing on instruments they otherwise never recorded with: hammond organ, tenor saxophone and flute - including "Now's the Time", "Pennies From Heaven", "Alice In Wonderland", "Swingin' Shepherd Blues" and even a French sung version of "Take Five". Probably the final and last issued music of Elsie Bianchi, carefully mastered for 6-Page-Digipack-CD and limited vinyl LP, including new sleeve notes and many forgotten pictures of the trio taken during the late 1960s in USA.
This recording may be the final and last issued music of Elsie Bianchi. It's significant for two reasons: it shows a repertoire of her trio that was never recorded before, and also presents Elsie and Siro Bianchi performing on instruments they otherwise never recorded with. Young DJs of today may know her recording of the song "Little Bird", a composition by Pete Jolly, taken from Bianchi's only studio album "The Sweetest Sound". Since Bianchi rarely recorded and not presented by an international label, her music, sadly, is only known to a niche jazz audience. It's wonderful to hear her in another rare live recording, with this new LP/CD of Sonorama Records. Hopefully it will help fill the gap, and spread the word about this overlooked talent.
