ITZIAR –
Itziar. Guerssen GUESS 011-LP. Spanish release. NEW
UNPLAYED VINYL RECORD ALBUM. This item does not come factory sealed. It has been placed inside of a poly sleeve when received by me. The disc will be placed outside the jacket for shipping. Originally issued in 1979. This
edition issued in 2003. Comes in a laminated gatefold cover with half-fold
B&W insert with liners and lyrics (all unfortunately in Spanish). Limited
edition of just 500 copies. MEMBERS: Itziar Egileor, Javi Robador, Alex Zabala,
Eduardo Bazterra, Mikel Prieto, and Joseba Erkiaga with Rafa Aranguren and Maite
Diego. TRACKS: Ameskoi, Espetxeratuarena, Manifestu
Atzeratua, Harri Eta Herri, Gauaren Iratsoa, Mendigoixalearena, Haizearen Gogoa,
Beartsu Fameliak and Agur Mikel (Mikel Zarateri). DESCRIPTION: Itziar is the name of the female singer
who led this Spanish group in the late 1970's. It's inevitable to compare them
with Haizea and their debut album, as Itziar features similar fragile, mostly
acoustic—and simply beautiful tracks. Originally released on the Xoxoa label and
now reissued in a limited run of 500 copies with the original gatefold cover and
insert. One of the finest vinyl reissues in the Basque folk/prog/psych series on
Guerssen.
For your further reading enjoyment and
enlightenment I offer the following description that I put together for the
earlier CD edition issued on Lost Vinyl:
From
the Basque country of northern Spain.
Melodious pop folk rock with psych and jazz influences. Their sound is led by
female vocalist and band namesake Itziar Egileor with occasional male vocals.
Itziar’s vocals are clear like the voice of Sandy Denny, also to whose work some
of their sound is reminiscent of. The music of Norwegian vocalist Tirill Mohn
(White Willow) also comes to mind. Nice use of flute throughout. A couple more
reference points would be The Incredible String Band and Pearls Before Swine.
Diverse, enchanting, peaceful, but never boring. A fresh wind. Well worth
checking this one out.
THIS ITEM IS NEW
AND UNPLAYED. Used items will
include condition details for the cover, disc, inserts, etc.
NOTE TO POTENTIAL BUYERS:
If the jacket or disc (unless sealed) is punched, marked, or cut in any
manner, denoting a promotional/review copy, I will state that as part of the
item description. Also if an issue is a "music club" edition, that
will be noted in the item description. (The below information last updated 7/09/23)
If you have any questions or if you have additional information,
especially corrections, to the description, please e-mail me. I particularly
enjoy when an artist, band member, or someone who has personal background
knowledge of a particular album/artist and offers their insight/information of
that recording, which I will include with the description for future listings
of that release. As a collector of many years, part of the hobby side for me is
to learn about the background of the artists and music that I collect. Hopefully,
sharing some of this information in my descriptions will help educate and
enhance your listening experience.
All LPs are removed from their jackets and placed
outside of the jacket for shipping. If an album comes sealed (and will be noted
as such in the above description), it will be shipped whole unless you request
that I open it up to place the disc outside of the jacket for shipping. Both
jacket and disc are placed inside of an outer plastic sleeve before packing for
shipping. I use professional corrugated record mailers with inside packing.

MIX: This sometimes appears
in my title line and refers to a group's/artist's music having a mix of styles
such a rock track with jazz then followed by a straight rock track followed by
a psych rock track, etc., as opposed to a blues album with the album's tracks
having predominantly one style.
MULTIPLE ITEM
PURCHASERS:

applied to all multiple item purchases. My automatically generated invoices do
not apply discounted shipping (I’m kinda old school). Shipping discounts are
automatically applied by two methods:
1)

total,
The shipping amount will reflect
the discount price for you to make your payment. This method seems to pose some
difficulty in navigating to the request invoice link
2)
Purchase and pay the full individual shipping amount and I will
automatically refund the shipping discount to you once processed for shipping.
(This seems to be the preferred method of my customers)
