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.

Hard to find GOLD label ORIGINAL 1967 FIRST PRINTING of the first Grateful Dead album, a forever classic psychedelic garage platter that sounds cool every time it's listened to...an integral part of San Francisco's hippie sensation...
1967, San Francisco, The Dead. The bands first excursion into the studio, which is a place that they were never very comfortable with... (in fact they have admitted that they were ALL hyped up on various psychedelic drugs during these sessions, and had sort of a rough time recording it..) There is the early 45 released GOLDEN ROAD, and the enjoyable MINGLEWOOD BLUES (one of the signature picks from way back).. there are more equally catchy tunes like BEAT IT ON DOWN THE LINE and the gutter blues via Pigpen's GOOD MORNING LITTLE SCHOOL GIRL (though not as developed as some more classic live versions).. plus wonderful Jerry Garcia trips like CREAM PUFF WAR, COLD RAIN & SNOW and MORNING DEW. Altogether, there's a different mood that strikes for this album in particular... a sixties garage album all the way, so, pop a flower in your hair and get ready to dance in that weird, tripped out flower child kind of groove, baby. The Dead heads first, an album released in March 1967, recorded in a marathon time of about 70 hours. The album was very rough and tumble, and only one song hinted towards the epic jams in their live shows the exquisite- Viola Lee Blues ..........................................
