OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week.
Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.
Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.
We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.

STEREO 3rd STONES Lp release ~ COLLECTIBLE !!! THICK INFLEXIBLE VINYL = STEREO SONG MIXES the ROLLING STONES 12 X 5 USA - (royal blue & silver ) - London (stereo) PS 402 SCARCE vintage sixties collectible in mint clean condition! the STONES 3rd 1964 album is hip rockin' bluesy R&B filled action with plenty of swagger & attitude that got these cats tagged as the bad boys of rock by parents and squares alike... A CLEAN COLLECTIBLE! (see full details below) LOOKS & PLAYS CLEAN!!!! The Rolling Stones released their second American LP, 12 X 5, in October of 1964. It consisted of tracks recorded at the legendary Chess studio in Chicago plus some other tracks put together in London. The album showed that the Rolling Stones were progressing musically. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards has begun to regularly write their own material. The cover songs were still taken from the rhythm & blues idiom but the Stones were gradually moving their sound toward straight rock and roll. “It’s All Over Now,” would become an early Rolling Stones signature song and make the American top 40 charts when released as a single. The Stones took this classic R&B song and remade it in their own image. The sound, including Mick Jagger’s vocals, are very rock & roll and it holds up well over forty years later. 12 X 5 contains an early version of “Time Is On My Side” This track featured an organ sound rather than a guitar. Mick Jagger’s voice also comes across with less urgency than the final release. The song was re-cut in London with a Brian Jones guitar line and new vocals which became a lasting Rolling Stones classic. The single, “Time Is On My Side,” was released as a USA 45 that came with a picture sleeve portraying the Stones in all their ugly, grungy glory. The flip side of the single was “Congratulations” which was as good as the A-side of “Time Is On My Side.” “Congratulations” featured some excellent acoustic guitar by Brian Jones and is a reminder of just how good a musician he could be when not completely under the influence. This sarcastic love song accurately reflected the attitude the Rolling Stones were trying to present to the public. The cover of “Suzie Q” is one of the first to feature dual guitars laid against each other. This sound would become a Rolling Stones trademark during the Mick Taylor years. Interestingly Jagger and Richards borrowed from “Susie Q” in style with their “Growing Up All Wrong.” Brian Jones slide guitar would then take the song in a rural direction at least instrumentally. “Around And Around” and “Confessin’ The Blues” have to be two of the most different songs to ever start a Rolling Stones album. The Stones crank up the sound and tempo on “Around and Around” and charge through the song at a frenetic pace. Mick Jagger is usually on safe ground with blues oriented ballads. “Confessin’ The Blues” is an excellent vehicle for Jagger’s voice. “2012 South Michigan” is a rare Rolling Stones original "jam". The song title is the address of Chess records in Chicago and here the Stones pay homage to this institution that housed many of their early influences. 12 X 5 marked the beginning of the modern day Rolling Stones process of creating an album. Jagger and Richards would write a song and bring in the other members to lay down their instrumental tracks. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were also starting to write songs on a regular basis and this would begin to push Brian Jones into the background. The Rolling Stones were quickly becoming the property of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
