"SPECIAL HALLOWEEN EDITION". Ex-boxer turned showman, SCREAMN' JAY HAWKINS was born Jalacy Jay Hawkins in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1929. During the sixties he became infamous for his outrageous stage performances that would plague him for the rest of his professional career. Hawkins recorded his signature song "I Put A Spell On You" (featured here in a hauntingly macabre reinvention) in October 1956 for Okeh Records, reputedly while drunk, and later claimed that he didn't even remember making the record. It might explain the wild screaming and cannibalistic grunts that secured his fame and led to his pioneering shock rock stage show. He reprised the song, first in 1967 with a funky beat and later in 1972 for 'Portrait Of A Man...' during a Nashville recording session that found the showman in a more sombre, reflective, mood charged with emotion and alive with his characteristic moans and groans - a powerful monologue to his smoking skull-on-a-stick, stage prop, named Henry! "On this album, we have a very different Jay Hawkins. He is still "Screamin'" Jay Hawkins but he doesn't scream as much these days. Jay is now doing his thing in fine soul style and displays of lot of versatility This album will bring Jay back to a new group of Soul-Rock fans. There are many good cuts here, including a re-make of "Spell" that's outta sight!" - JOHN RICHBOURG, Nashville 1972

Shipping, Local Pick Up, Returns & Cancellations Policies.

SHIPPING:

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.

Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.

LOCAL PICK UP POLICY:

Due to a large amount of unclaimed local pick ups over the years we have updated our policy. Any orders that remain unclaimed after 90 days from the initial "ready for pick up" notification will be considered abandoned and returned to our system without refund. If you are having issues picking up your order within this time frame please contact us via orders@1234gorecords.com. If you need your order shipped we can easily do so for an added shipping fee.

RETURNS:

Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.

Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

CANCELLATIONS:

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.

Thank you for your understanding.
