King Kurt
'Ooh Wallah Wallah' LP

King Kurt release a 35th anniversary edition of their debut album in transparent yellow vinyl for Record Store Day.

It includes their chart hit Destination Zululand, and their original version of Mack The Knife.

King Kurt first appeared on Thin Sliced Records in 1982 with the ‘Zulu Beat’ 7” in twenty different vinyl editions.  They built up a following at riotous gigs, famously strewn with all sorts of muck thrown around, amongst also offering haircuts and drinking competitions – their mission was to have fun in dour times.

Signed to Stiff Records in 1983 they hit the Top 40 with ‘Destination Zululand’.  The album Ooh Wallah Wallah, was produced by Dave Edmunds at Rockfield and entered the UK top 100.  They followed up with Top 50 singles the re-recorded ‘Mack The Knife’ and ‘Banana Banana’. 

After another album Big Cock with Stiff in 1986, they signed to Polydor for two singles and issued further albums in 1988 and 1994.

Musically they created a bizarre mix of roots rock-a-billy, funk, African rhythms and pop, with their own unique psycho craziness and humour.  Regular TV appearances increased their notoriety as the rat-fixated, nutty mohican kids of rock’n’roll.  

The band are regularly on tour in the UK and Europe; check out their website.

Track list:   Zulu Beat, Destination Zululand, Bo Diddley Goes East, Hound Dog, Wreck-A-Party Rock, Ghost Riders In The Sky, Gather Your Limbs, Rockin’ Kurt, Lonesome Train, Mack The Knife, Oedipus Rex, Do The Rat.

Also available as a CD+DVD set with extra tracks and videos:

PLEASE READ THE SMALL PRINT BEFORE YOU BUY:

PAYMENT
Paypal is smoothly integrated into ebay, and works well. 
Paying by credit-card - if you don't have Paypal, you can still use credit-cards through PayPal. 
Just DON’T LOG INTO AN ACCOUNT, and look for the button saying ‘Pay by credit-card’. 
We also accept cheques from UK banks in Pounds Sterling, and UK Postal Orders. Checks in US Dollars from US banks can be accepted with a $3 surcharge. 
PayPal ‘eCheque’ payments take a week longer to arrive, so expect a delay if you use that facility.  You can avoid eCheques by having a credit-card linked to your PayPal account. 
Orders paid by any method outside the PayPal system will likely be subject to delays.

POSTAGE
The amount we charge is what we expect to pay plus approx 15-40p for packing materials. 
There's NO such thing as 'free postage'!  Prices include 20% VAT on the postage as well as the goods, ebay then take commission of 8-10% - on the item, postage AND the VAT... and then ask you whether our postage charges are 'fair'.  We don't 'include' postage, otherwise we can't offer reduced postage for multiple items...
MULTIPLE ITEMS POSTAGE
For multiple items, there will be an automatic reduction in postage costs of 50% of further items postage.  BUT make sure you order them together, not individually: FIRST ADD THEM ALL TO YOUR CART. 
If you want to wait for an accurate calculation: MAKE SURE you're on the ebay.CO.UK site, not an overseas one.  Put ALL the items into your basket, then go to 'Contact Seller'.  There, click on the 'Request total from seller' button.  We'll then weigh and recalculate your combined items postage and send you an invoice.  This may take a day or two; the postage may or may not calculate as less. 

DELIVERY TIME excludes weekends and Bank Holidays, which may be different in the UK from elsewhere. 
Packets to overseas destinations (particularly Italy, Russia, South America) often take longer than advertised due to local customs delays. 
OVERSEAS POST is by Royal Mail Air Mail Small Packet or parcel, for which there is currently NO TRACKING number.  We don't regularly offer a 'signed for' or tracked service; but message us if your order is over £50 value and you'd like to add such a service.  WE ADVISE A SIGNED-FOR SERVICE FOR ALL BRAZIL ORDERS.
Ebay will update your order once it is sent.  Soon they should add tracking details there.
PACKAGING: For vinyl we use sturdy card cruciforms, not envelopes, and if not shrinkwrapped we remove discs from sleeves, to avoid sleeve splits.  For CDs we use corrugated cardboard, not jiffy bags.

PROBLEM?
We want you to be really happy with your purchase.  If you’re not, or something’s gone wrong, please message us.  We will do our very best to resolve things.  If our item description isn’t quite right, or you think we’ve overcharged on postage, please LET US KNOW instead of 'opening a case' or marking down our ebay feedback.  If you have an order problem you’d like to resolve quickly, you can phone us (you'll have to google our website for the number, ebay prohibit phone numbers).  Good manners are appreciated!

EBAY MESSAGING
It’ll help us deal with your query faster if you can include the order reference #number!  At least your name AND ebay ID.  Please try not to 'open a case' unless you're seriously concerned.  Message us first; we always want you to be happy with the service you get.
Please remember, the ebay shop is not our main business so we may not always respond immediately; but we will get back to you.
