LP (Item 176931) Heyday, 2024 — Condition: Good 2LP Gatefold
$3.99 ...
LP, Vinyl record album
Heady sounds from Mushroom – a surprisingly long-running act who've been giving the world a great blend of funk and prog for decades! These guys hail from the Bay Area, and have clearly drunk deep of that location's legendary music scene – yet they also sometimes echo the soulful side of Can as well – spinning out long tracks with plenty of grooves, and lots of cool instrumental touches on flute, sax, vibes, and gongs! Matt Cunitz produced the record, and serves up some mighty cool keyboards – Fender Rhodes, Hammond, Clavinet, Moog, and more – on titles that include "Marc Moved To Buffalo", "In Dreams Begin Responsibilities", "Looking For Adventure", "One Ton Anvil", and "Don't Hate Me Because I'm Beautiful". © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.
(NOTE – One LP has a melted edge and will skip on the first track on each side. Looks great otherwise.)

Good
- A record that you'd buy to play, cheap, but which you wouldn't buy for collecting.
- Will have marks across all parts of the playing surface, and will most likely play with surface noise throughout. May have some other significant flaws, such as residue, or a track that skips.
- In most cases, a poor quality copy of a very difficult to find record.
Additional Marks & Notes
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Rich Kid BluesCastle (UK), 1971/1978. Near Mint- 2LP Gatefold
A real breakthrough moment for Marianne Faithfull – a singer who'd already been doing some incredible music in the 60s, but who moves here into deeper territory that makes her way more than just a female British singer with a bit of an edge – and really opens up that talent that would ...

Rolling Stones
Their Satanic Majesties RequestLondon, 1967. Very Good Gatefold
A record that was initially thought by some as a cheap cash-in on the Sgt Peppers concept – but an album that, to us, really helped set The Rolling Stones free to express themselves in so many new and amazing ways!

Led Zeppelin
Physical GraffitiSwan Song/Atlantic, 1975. Very Good- 2LP
Led Zeppelin at their most sprawling – in both ambition and in the pacing – on the gargantuan Physical Graffiti!

Joe Jackson
Night & DayA&M, 1982. Very Good+ Gatefold
A heck of a great record – and we don't mind saying it!

Section
Forward MotionWarner, 1973. Near Mint-
A killer second set from Section – a combo made up of key 70s studio players like Danny Kootch Kortchmar and drummer Craig Doerge!

Chuck Berry Is On TopChess, 1959. Good
Chuck Berry is definitely on top with this classic Chess Records set – an album that shows that Berry always had a lot more to offer than some of his oldies rocker contemporaries!
