FARM 's/t' LP (Spain, Guerssen Records, Catalogue #GUESS180) Brand new/unplayed copy of year 2022 Guerssen Records label edition/album of what is quite possibly THE TOP, MOST RARE, DESIRED, SOUGHT-AFTER AND IN DEMAND EARLY '70S "ALLMAN BROTHERS-ESQUE" AMERICAN PRIVATE-PRESS RURAL-BLUES-BOOGIE-ROCK RECORD IN EXISTENCE by Mt. Vernon, Illinois band Farm. Originally self-released as a private-pressing LP by the band in 1971. One of the top-tier '70s American Rock LP rarities that everyone who knows about it and has heard it holds in high regard. A real monster of an album with smokin' dual guitar blues/boogie rock action that fans of Johnny Winter, Ten Years After, Butterfield Blues Band, Canned Heat and the aforementioned Allman Brothers will find much to be pleased by. This is an absolutely mandatory slab for fans of any of the aforementioned bands, plus any and all aficionados and seekers of cream of the crop top-tier titles of this genre from the heyday of early '70s American private-press rock. ABSOLUTELY TOP RECOMMENDED ALBUM!

Originally released as private pressing in 1971, the Farm album is highly sought-after and revered by collectors. Recorded by this Southern Illinois band in 1971 at the legendary Golden Voice studios, it's chock full of jammy, bluesy guitar psych with heavy dual guitars, organ, congas, harp... Recommended if you like Quicksilver, Allman Brothers, Canned Heat, Ten Years After... Remastered sound; original artwork; includes booklet with photos and extensive liner notes by Kevin Rathert (It's Psychedelic Baby) LP version includes download card. "A vital album for fans of vintage guitar action." --Patrick Lundborg (Acid Archives).

"Classy dual guitar jams recalling Quicksilver or the Allman Brothers are mixed with a more rootsy Chicago blues-rock style. The Butterfield Blues Band circa East-West may have been a model for the Farm, who in addition to their impressive instrumental skills are serviced by a very good recording and dynamics. In any event, a vital album for fans of vintage guitar action." - Patrick Lundborg/The Acid Archives

HOW WE SHIP RECORDS (AND OTHER ITEMS) TO YOU:

With the exception of a few odd-sized items, ALL LPs are packaged for shipment and sent to you in PROFESSIONAL QUALITY, SUPERIOR RECTANGULAR SHAPED, CORNER-PROTECTING CORRUGATED CARDBOARD RECORD MAILERS WITH FILLER PADS. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED!

We are record collectors here, too, and we pledge to package your records (or any other item) in a way in which we would like to have records/other items packaged, sent to us and received by us as well.

When packaging up records that are non-factory sealed items (as is standard for many import releases) or are open "used" items for shipment, we remove the LP and inner-sleeve from the album cover and place them on the outside of the cover to protect the cover from being subjected to any potential seam-splitting during transit.

When packaging up factory sealed records for shipment, we leave the item sealed, intact, as is. HOWEVER. If a customer REQUESTS that we unseal a factory sealed record to send with the LP and inner sleeve on the outside of the cover (to protect the cover from any potential seam-splitting during transit) we will do so. Please be sure to make this make this request of unsealing your record for shipment if that is your packaging preference.

When packaging up non-factory sealed items (or factory sealed items that have been unsealed at the buyer's request) that have custom company or other manner of printed inner-sleeves, we remove the record from those printed inner sleeves (returning the printed inner sleeves back into the album cover) and place them inside brand new, generic white paper inner sleeves, which are then placed on the outside of the album cover to protect both the album cover AND the original printed inner sleeves from being subjected to any potential seam splitting during transit. We do this for all new AND used items that are in our stock.

All LPs, be they new or used, are sheathed inside of new, protective plastic outer sleeves (with the exceptions of space or weight limitations that may occur with packaging your items - such exceptions will take place when they allow for a lower cost of shipping charged for your total order.)

We go the extra mile to protect and preserve your items, folks!

With but a few exceptions (odd size combined orders or other package configurations and considerations...)

All 12" records are sent to you packaged in quality 15" x 1" x 13" rectangular shaped corrugated cardboard LP mailers.
