Note About Shipping To The U.S.
We are located in Canada, but have registered ourselves on eBay.com instead of eBay.ca because it gives us significantly better global exposure.  The problem with this is that eBay wants us to charge shipping appropriate to US, where media mail and other options make for fairly reasonable delivery costs. We tried it for a while but ended up losing money on shipping or having to cancel the orders because we couldn't afford to ship for those rates. To manage this we have set the US shipping to run a calculator based on an American location (we chose Plattsburgh as fairly close) and charging according to UPS pricing.  This avoids the cancellation issue, but can appear to the buyer to be a prohibitive shipping cost and misrepresents the shipping as being only expedited. If you give us your postal code we will see if we can offer a more reasonable option, but generally we can get a single LP by air to most places in the continental US for $11, a double $16, a few bucks less for ground. If you pay for the item and the shipping was less than you paid we will refund you the difference
Thanks for shopping Sir Helmitt,

Whatever Tickles Your Fancy

Label:Polydor 2383 344  Format:Vinyl, LP, Album  Country:UK  Released:1975  Genre:Rock, Folk, World, & Country  Style:Folk Rock, Folk 



Whatever Tickles Your Fancy, Christy Moore's third album was his first after his first departure from Planxty, in the mid-'70s. Perhaps feeling a bit as if he should try to please all folk factions, the LP was divided into an acoustic side ("Tippin' It Up to Nancy," in fact, features nothing but his voice and bodhran) and an electric one. Rearrangements of traditional material dominated the song list, although it also included a couple of Ewan MacColl tunes and, most surprisingly, a cover of Mountain's "One Last Cold Kiss." Whatever approach was used, he was an effective interpreter of traditional numbers, or work that was traditional in style (even "One Last Cold Kiss," after all, was based on a Nantucket legend). The electric side was very much in the British fiddle-electric guitar folk-rock style pioneered by Fairport Convention, the most notable cuts being "The Ballad of Timothy Evans" and the eight-minute closer, "Van Diemen's Land."
