RARE 1970 FIRST PRESSING ~ RARE VINYL COLLECTIBLE! With JIMI HENDRIX & STEVEN STILLS TIMOTHY LEARY You Can Be Anyone This Time Around ...USA - DOUGLAS 1 RARE Original 1970 first pressing on the small Douglas label and housed in a triple thick gatefold cover...There's some groovy special guests who perform for the king of ACID .... rare double sided pop-art inner sleeve (original) is included!! The Book of the Month Club billed this as "The musical equivalent of a full-blown LSD trip." That might be stretching it a bit, but then again, what exactly is an acid trip? This is Timothy Leary's elucidation of what was to be his 1968 CA gubernatorial campaign platform until then-guv Ronald Reagan had him imprisoned for marijuana possession, thereby nullifying Leary's eligibility for the candidacy. This record is what happens when one of the best minds of a generation gets together with Stephen Stills, Buddy Miles, and Jimi Hendrix (on bass!) for a little 21st century philosophy utilizing the cut and splice technology pioneered by the Beatles. The title track might just be the first example of wholesale sampling, incorporating bites of Allen Ginsberg, John Lennon, Indian cowmaid music and more. If you're into "out there" psychedelic stuff, you'd like this album. The opening 14:12 "Live & Let Live" has Leary recitations over a jam session with Stephen Stills, John Sebastian, Hendrix, and Buddy Miles. The last two pieces are tape collages featuring Leary telling you can even be The Beatles if you want. Far-out man.... SIDE I LIVE AND LET LIVE SIDE II
CONDITION: The cover: The gatefold cover is solid all over; about "EX" (excellent) front and back cover pretty clean ... there are no seam splits, no delete marks, no writing, and has bright original colors (No fade).... The vinyl: glossy both sides, VG++ having a couple of very light soft scuff lines, maybe harder to see inner sleeve scuffs, nothing significant to report. expect enjoyable audio. CLEAN Douglas lables
keeper! A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTION ! SEE: SELLERS OTher items for similar cool sounds for "head" people... EFFICIENT/CAREFUL GRADING All imperfections are noted both cover & record
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING:
Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.
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.
We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.
