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.

[isdntekvideo] Original 1971 FIRST PRINT, this the obscure Arizona ACID LEGEND'S only album. LISTEN above, the flipped-out album holds full attention throughout both sides with self-penned gems all over the place -
and, oh man - the guitar throughout is from beyond ...+ MORE !

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original 1971 release "FOLKSTONE PRISM" by the obscure Arizona psych band KENNELMUS was their only album.

INVESTMENT ARTIFACT
Totally tripped-out tunes holding full attention in nevermore uniqueness including "Patti's Dream", "Goodbye Pamela Ann" (stunning guitar intro), "Think For Yourself", the somewhat humorous "Shapes Of Sleep" (what's their vocalist on during this song?), "Sylvan Shores" and "The Raven".

KENNELMUS :
Ken Walker - guitar, zither, organ, electric piano & vocals, Bob Narloch - guitar, harmonica & vocals,
Tom Gilmore - bass
Mike Shipp - drums & percussion.

Recommended for fans of Music Emporium, Bow Street Runners, The Misunderstood, Electric Prunes, West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band +++
and ALL THINGS 50 years : ACID ROCK

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The CRAZY impossibly-RARE "FOLKSTONE PRISM" private press album is altogether freaking excellent, trippy, mind-bending, with very surfadelic guitars and strange sound-effects all over the place ...

Highly obvious a lot of thinking and planning was put into
this way-way out 1971 production. ...................................................................

CONDITION:

The cover: rated: VG+ and by far better ++ ... this 1971
super-rare original ARIZONA mystical-magic PRIVATE PRESS features   the original group designed psychedelic paste-on with thick white backing cover ... look closely, all very colorful and sharp 50+ years forward ... the small downgrade (VG+ & far better) refers to a missing small triangle at right edge of the original paste-on ... otherwise see for yourself and good luck finding better... The back original paste-on cover is near M-  there are no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing  ...
The homemade insert shown IS included and good luck finding ever again
Homr
The vinyl: Rated: VG+  playing decidedly with enjoyable audio through BOTH sides, minimal noticeable issues; visually there are a couple hairlines & light (nothing audible) hair scuffs, yet all things considered, and think twice when has been in a private collection for many many years both private-press PHOENIX labels are clean INVESTMENT ARTIFACT
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
