Description: The Undertakers' 45 RPM single, "Love So Dear/Loneliness to Happiness," a true gem for enthusiasts of garage rock and psych. Released in 1967, this record captures the essence of an era with its psych guitar riffs and stirring keyboard. The first pressing vinyl, spinning at the classic speed of 45 RPM, promises an authentic listening experience that's as dynamic as it is nostalgic. Mastered at Pine Hills (PH) Records in Orlando FL , the single features the distinctive work of Bob Church and Ron Foreman, and was produced by Don Gore It included bass guitar, drums, electric guitar, keyboard, tambourine, and vocals. The 7-inch record, catalog number 115 A, comes in a new generic paper sleeve and has been selected in a number Garage Psych collections over the years.This however is an original copy that was played at parties and events around Orlando in the 60s. I'm not a professional record seller so my grading is subjective. This copy has some surface scratches and normal snap and pop of a played record from 1967. I would consider it between a VG and a VG+ on LSD and a VG on LTH but you may not agree. see photos-you can zoom in on them - you may see some dust as this was scanned at 600 but you can also see the scratches - I'm not out to misrepresent anything. Check my feedback re records ! It has been played on two different turntables here and it did not skip on either one. Results on your equipment may vary. It's kind of rare and most the ones floating around now came from either me or Bobby Church, the band's guitarist, as we were selling them around 2006 to pay some of his medical expenses. THIS one is my personal copy and does have my name written on LTH side label. Now selling mine to pay MY medical expenses. AS IS SALEBUYER PAYS SHIPPING; NOTE MEDIA MAIL DOES NOT INCLUDE INSURANCE SO FOR A RECORD THIS HIGH YOU MIGHT WANT TO UPGRADE SHIPPING BUT UP TO YOU. Will also include a news article from my scrapbook about the band.
