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. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us.  Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity 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. 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.  We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback.   We use an ultrasonic KLAudio 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.

MINT TOP COPY -LOOKS UN-PLAYED!

Issued more than 20 years ago, the second press in triple thick cardboard cover is extinct as well ... it's long long gone ...limited edition in thick cover with paste-on slicks, just like the hideously rare ($1,5000+ valued) original ...1967 top flight garage/psych winner from the mid west ...filled with cool songs, fuzz guitar & Farfisa organ that won't quit!   

GRANDMA'S ROCKERS were from Iowa...
If you own the 1967 first issue of this LP you have an extreme rarity since only 500 were made. Adding to the listening pleasure is the delight in owning a record that is worth upwards of $1,500 in nice condition. Rated among the 100 most valuable vinyl albums, Grandma's Rockers was composed of five Iowa high school teens performing fuzzed-psych gems across both sides of their now famous LP.

Grandma's Rockers was composed of five Iowa high school kids performing a mixture of crude, but absolutely killer originals and the "in" hits of the day, such as "Incense & Peppermints,"  "Talk Talk," "Light My Fire," and even an obscure 'fuzz stinger' called "Love" which you can find on the very first Country Joe & the Fish... but it's the originals that are even better, namely "So High On Cloud Nine," "Blue Peppers" and "Breakaway"

Performed in a basic garage band style this album is indicative of an era before a few monolithic corporations controlled the music industry. Enjoyable is the raw amateurishness and enthusiasm conveyed in the performance.
