    I see the 45 of Magic Potion but is the single included on the album ?? My copy is an older release on Acme Records and includes Magic Potion on the LP.

    It has Magic Potion/ Cast a Spell on side A
    and
    The Drag Set - Day and Night/ Get Out of My Way on side B

    Per Discogs;
    British rock band from London from the late 1960s. Originally called The Apaches, later renamed to The Drag Set and eventually called The Open Mind.
    The Drag Set, a mod band, changed their name to the Open Mind in late 1967 to reflect the non-judgmental receptiveness of the psychedelic era. After appearing at London's legendary venues like Middle East, the UFO Club, the Electric Garden (supporting Pink Floyd on opening night!)

    Nice score SIHAB! That's what got me into vinyl 20 years ago. Most of my collection was priced similarly. After some time, I gave up around here because the GW bins were mostly empty for years and the prices kept going up. Glad your location still has some gems.

    I can't remember if I posted this before, but this "Rewind That" album from Christian Scott, is worth seeking out. Excellent all around. I heard it on Radio Paradise one evening, and went to eBay the next day to get the CD.

    It's a "relaxed" recording but still very nice. Thanks for sharing that one.

    This was one of the best early CD purchases that I made! Still listening to it 38 years later at least once a year.

    Another great set of purchases...
    The entire set of Police Studio Albums on 2-ch SACD (no Redbook layer) Each was the going price on BMG at the time. $6.99? (2006 era) Something like that... Ripped to server thanks to a Sony Blu-ray player and the guys at Audiophile Style.

    It's not a night of Police if you don't hear one of their songs with the "Chah/Jump" vocal assault (timestamp 2:22 on this one).

    Agree Bill! The Police stuff on SACD is very good I've got all of them. I too bought mine when Best Buy was selling SACD/DVD-Audio, remember that? I think I paid less than $12 ea. They have really jumped in price in the last 10yrs.
