The byrds easy rider11/1/2022 ![]() ![]() MISSING SHIPMENTS: Missing shipments are uncommon, but be aware USPS tracking numbers are "archived" after 60 days (making them far less useful) and purged entirely after about five months (not six months, as advertised.) If you believe a domestic shipment has gone missing, please let us know within 60 days. Failing that, should no adult signer be available when the mailman calls, buyers should be on the lookout for a "notice of attempt to deliver." If such a notice is ignored, USPS will generally return our package to us after about 13 days. In the case of shipments valued over $90, this will usually mean a post office box, a business address, or some other location where a responsible adult is likely to be present during business hours to sign for our package. Customers are responsible to provide a secure shipping address. HOWEVER (SIGNATURE REQUIRED): Since today's mail carriers have been known to dump even insured parcels on front porches or on office hallway floors, or to leave them wedged in screen doors, whereupon the postal authorities have DECLINED to pay our insurance claim when such a parcel goes missing, sneering that such parcels were "delivered as addressed," we now ship all parcels valued at $90 or more "signature required," at our expense. To keep our basic shipping rate competitive, we do not routinely pay out of pocket to insure books valued under $50. Media mail is the default setting you may choose "Priority," which costs more but carries some automatic insurance protection, if you wish. "SHIPPING RATE" is a small pull-down menu at ABE. Please make sure your e-mail program will accept such an inquiry from an ABE Books address. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 lbs., or 1 kg. Orders usually ship within 2 business days. No international shipment of these lower-priced LPs. ![]() While The Band performed "The Weight" on the soundtrack, the compilers here explain that cut was "not available for this album" (likely meaning Dunhill declined to pay for LP rights), so instead "We have taken the liberty of including the song as recorded by 'Smith' in this package." The Columbia Pictures film, of course, starred Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, Jack Nicholson, Karen Black, et al., was directed by Hopper, caught the angst of a culture clash still playing out today, and did rather well. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm stereo vinyl record, Dunhill/ABC DSX-50063, near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus cardboard jacket with minor ringwear and a small PON to verso, including Steppenwolf's "Born to Be Wild," Fraternity of Man's "Don't Bogart Me," Roger McGuinn performing Bob Dylan's "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)," Jimi Hendrix et al. ![]()
