Terms and conditions

 

Payment by Paypal, bank transfer or cheques (UK only)

In case of wins, I will send my Paypal email (not the same as the email above) or bank details along with the total amount

Postage costs added on top at cost. All items will be sent registered and tracked when this service is available.

I will update a master list on this special blog page https://purepopsetsale.blogspot.com/

Sold items will turn red and be marked as sold

Important: Only communicate via email.  I will not accept bids via Facebook messenger, instagram, What's app etc...This is to ensure I do not miss any bids

EU/Worldwide Shipping

Unless asked to do otherwise, I will mark the customs declaration as “gift” with a low value (so no tax to pay). Although there are no problems doing this when sending to the US or Australia,  customs in the EU have been over-zealous since July 2021, so records can get stuck in customs for a number of days. Although I will mark packages as gift with a low value some countries (Germany in particular) tend to charge import duty (usually under € 10).

Grading

I don’t use the term Mint. I don’t believe that records manufactured over 30 years ago, even if unplayed, can be called mint.

Grading: Record/Cover

EX: Means either “near mint” to some light very marks with hardly any noticeable noise. Sleeve has no or only minor wear.

VG: Means means some minimal background sounds and more pronounced marks which do not affect the listening experience in a major way. Sleeve may be creased, minor discolouring, the odd fraying, some ringwear, seam split and perhaps some  writing.

G: Means noticeable clicks or pop, may have scratches, but doesn’t skip or jump. Sleeve may be ripped, tape repair, large writing, sticker removal damage etc...

Fair: Not a pleasant listening experience, the disc is damaged, just a stop gap before upgrading. Sleeve is badly damaged, not one to frame on the wall...

Poor: I don’t sell records in poor condition

Please note that in some  cases Youtube clips are for reference and not from the record for sale

Yes the original issue of the first AC/DC single pre Bon Scott. At the time Bomp wrote about it assuming is was a Vanda/Young post Easybeats made up band. But no this is the band with Dave Evans on vocals. Some marks, but plays near EX

VG+

EX

Blue Ice - People Get Ready/Too Many Answers -Golden Voice (US) Hear   https://youtu.be/8TPnDhT8PfU

 https://youtu.be/Bl_J_CbyDM4

 

2 great examples of Midwest heaviness. Some superb cutting guitar across both sides. Think of a more Garage-based Steppenwolf and you wouldn't be far off

EX

SOLD




Bob Goodsite  - Faze 1/ Our House- Sound Patterns (US) Hear https://youtu.be/o6lY1J4TwPw

 

Scuzzy fuzz-filled Heavy instro with lashing of Wah Wah  as found on the first  volume of Brown Acid

Come on Home is the winner here. Sounds like a heavier Fever Tree to me (that sustained guitar). Some marks and a bit crackly at time - hear sound clips from the record itself. Mild label rubs.

VG

SOLD




Buster Browns- Lovin' Train/ In The Morning- Golden Voice  (US) Hear https://youtu.be/jEs_JReKZ1Q

  https://youtu.be/ciFISHpQSIo

 

Lovin Train was comped on Ultimate Bonehead Vol 1, but the B side is also great, betraying Page era Yardbirds stylings.Top snarly and noisy early Hard Rock efforts (1968). Appears unplayed

EX

SOLD



Factory - Time Machine/ Castle on The Hill Oak (UK) Hear clips from the record itself https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iaF3Qnj0P0&t=34s (this is my copy on YT)

This is also probably my copy too

https://youtu.be/gQ3LTjA11pA

 

I have also added newly recorded excerpts of both sides http://www.ecommerceplayer.com/MediaPlayer.aspx?id=1138288f-4bbf-444e-b6a4-75c77987af43

 

 

 

. Issued on Oak so 99 copies were pressed. This is essential Heavy Psych/Bonehead Crunching Proto Punk madness - The proceedings start all quiet and subdued then it all literally burst out of the vinyl with blistering lead breaks and a crazed lead vocal. The whole performance approaches the grandeur of Open Mind’s Magic Potion. Condition Visually the record is VG+, however the quiet intro has crackle but then plays VG+ to EX. Listen to the sound clips of both sides

VG

SOLD





Heatwave - 9-9-9/One Eyed Man - Harp (UK)       Hear clips from the record itself

http://www.ecommerceplayer.com/MediaPlayer.aspx?id=cdd66ca4-880e-4744-911a-8fd009336bda

 

 

Hear a full sound clip (not my copy) https://youtu.be/LIlMtYxBJno

 

Welsh Proto Punk/Bonehead from 1975. As featured on the seminal Do What Thou Wilt comp all those years ago. Plays VG due to some crackling at the beginning

VG

SOLD



Mad Sound - To Masturbate/ Summertime - Jackrecords -(DK)

Hear https://youtu.be/TYclzZd0xbY

 

Weird and unique Danish release from 68. Over a Hey Joe bedrock, you will find a song about the joys and guilt of self-love…Well I I assume this as the lyrics are not easily deciphered. Nice sinuous "solos". Wax your Axe! . Condition: Record is perfect, the sleeve has a bit of fraying and a small top  tear, but still presentable

EX/VG

SOLD




No Entry - Magic Looking Glass/ Magic Looking Glass- Columbia (Bel) Hear

 https://youtu.be/czTNs-D5xJQ

 

https://youtu.be/CmDBB_XDf-Y

 

Behind The Moon is a sought after Psychy Mod Dancer from this Belgian combo. Magic Looking Glass is fine Popsike and more melodic. Record and fold out sleeve are in top condition

EX/EX

SOLD




Pneumania - I Can See Your Face/All Your Love - Oak (UK) Hear full sound clips of both sides from the record itself   http://www.ecommerceplayer.com/MediaPlayer.aspx?id=31cb3cf5-7958-49b5-b100-5a1b1d606be8

 

Blistering Heavy fuzzed up groover and impossible to find. (99 copies). God that guitar is just so loud. Freakrock as on the border between Freakbeat and Heavy Rock.. B side sounds more like Cream/ Fleetwood Mac. This is obviously a real biggie

Condition is near perfect

EX

SOLD




Raw Meat - Stand-By Girl/ Out in The Country - Blue Hour (US) Hear https://youtu.be/-9b7X7bvAes

  https://youtu.be/xDayVqIpaeQ

 

Stand-By Girl is a wondrous tour-de-force in heavy fuzz-faced shenanigans, with a solid Bonehead foothold, but on the edge of tipping over into an undocumented world of weird. Stand-By Girl has one of the heaviest/scuzziest heavy fuzz sounds anywhere. This was an obvious Ultimate Bonehead contender, but was defered to Brown Acid

EX

SOLD



Shado - Evil City/ Tell You I Know - Montrose (UK)         Hear https://youtu.be/wb7DapUm0Mc

 

Top Freakrock! Evil City is perhaps my favourite track on the Do What Thou Wilt comp. Evil City is a furious fuzzed up Proto Metal rocker with somehow reminds me of Radio Birdman with added pathos. An obscure winner

EX

SOLD



Spontaneous Corruption - Freaky Girl/ Looking Glass of Time (US)                                                                         Hear https://youtu.be/_PjsVFQJFfY

  https://youtu.be/HbU_X45_0Ls

 

Basically this was my original description of Bonehead - "Blue Cheer but more dumb" This fuzzed up heavy monster can also be found on Bonehead Crushers Volume 2. Record is near perfect but with slight bubbling on the labels

EX

SOLD
