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!

KOZMIK BLUES ..|/\|...............................................|/\|.. USA - 360 Sound COLUMBIA- 9913
***MINT*** IN FACTORY SHRINK WRAP = TOP COPY with the all-too-rare KOZMIK BLUES sticker...most folks tore off the wrapper and there went the rare sticker too!
BEAUTIFUL M- *clean* Original 1969 first pressing on the highly sought 360 Sound Columbia label of the sixties...
If you habitually dig through dusty piles of albums looking for an pristine original pressing still in original factory shrink wrapper with the all too rare "Kozmic Blues" sticker on outer wrapper - look no further -- the cellophane on the cover is complete (none missing) and that all too important (rare) outer KOZMIC BLUES" sticker is intact -looking terrific, just as it did in 1969.
There's not much new that can be said about the music. Kozmic Blues is Janis Joplin's debut album sans Big Brother & the Holding Company, and the more personal statement of Joplin's edge-of-her-vocal-cords blues-soul fusion. The drawn-out opening of "Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)" percolates with conviction, as does "One Good Man," which Joplin wrote. The 'Kozmic Blues Band' is tight and electrifying -- giving Janis plenty of room to do her thang, and she certainly does it ...check out her popular hit, 'Try', then the bluesy 'One Good Man', the pretty, 'As Good As The World's Been To You', and the tour de force closer 'Work Me, Lord' which is one of the tunes she'd showstop with on tour in 1969 (which would also include a pit stop at Woodstock). So, in all, it's a strong album filled with an edge-of-your-seat fine performance.
The pressing is quiet down into the grooves,
and there is good definition of everything musical.
