MUNGO JERRY-YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE IN THE ARMY-1971-FIRST PRESS-UK-DAWN-DNLS-3028. A very rare British original of the cult band..The third album of the wonderful Mungo Jerry, on which they continue to be in the framework of a jagband band that is branded for them. I don't think that, in comparison with the first two, the material here sags much more often, in general, this record is designed absolutely in the same stylistic spirit: pipes and kazoos, washing boards, unpretentious jagband and blues motifs. The peculiarity of such Mungo Jerry in general, and this album in particular, is that with all the buzz, relaxation and non-tension, at some point all this begins to have the opposite effect. The highlight of the album is the beautiful, bright, tenacious and generally one of the best things Mungo Jerry "You Don't Have To Be In The Army To Fight In The War", without which you can not do anything.    ...more

DOORS-SOFT PARADE-1969-THE FIRST PRESS (PROMO) USA-ELEKTRA-EKS75005. Matrices A-CP/B-CP-1.  Mega rare American promo original of the cult album. The Soft Parade is the fourth studio album by the American rock band The Doors, released on July 18, 1969 on the Elektra label. The Soft Parade did not receive approval from either critics or listeners. So, in the Billboard 200, the record reached only the sixth position, and in the charts of the UK and other European countries, the disc did not debut at all, unlike its predecessor Waiting for the Sun (1968). Of all the singles released in support of the album — "Touch Me", "Wishful Sinful", "Tell All the People"ruen and "Runnin' Blue" — only the first achieved sales success: it reached the third line in the Billboard Hot 100 and then received gold certification by the RIAA. Many music publications, for example, Rolling Stone, were dissatisfied with the record, mainly due to The Doors' attempt to move away from their style to the use of orchestral arrangements. Over time, music historians have changed their opinion about The Soft Parade for the better, but the CD is still recognized as one of the weakest works of the band during Morrison's lifetime. ...more
