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.

                    European - VERNE RECORDS

This is a really nice early Slade rarity you won't find at your local drug store. The material is previously unreleased from back in 1969 - 1971 when AMBROSE SLADE were in their formative hard-rock phase including their psych-edged period (totally different versions) material from their "London BBC studio" recordings that deliver a fantastic sound, as good and even far better than anything the band officially release - in all honestly, with perhaps exception to their legendary '69 "Beginnings" LP. 

The optical artwork of this album is very attractive - import style all the way, so the sleeve is very shiny and looks on par to any official release by the legendary band. 

Overall, we sincerely acknowledge this is an impressive early SLADE album, only issued in France in quantity of maybe a few hundred copies. The vinyl is not quite 180g but it is rather thick, this is a must own for any Slade fan or early '70s underground UK rock freak. We might advise to not pass by with skeptical connotations... the band is hungry (pre-fame) and: on fire.
