IF YOU PLAN ON BUYING MULTIPLE ITEMS PLEASE DO NOT PAY WITH PAYPAL UNTIL I HAVE SENT YOU A COMBINED PAYMENT REQUEST THROUGH EBAY. THIS ASSURES PROPER SHIPMENT OF YOUR PACKAGE, AND A FASTER SHIPMENT TURNAROUND TIME FOR ALL OF MY CUSTOMERS J
I would like to say hello to all of you that used to be my customers well over 3 years ago. Due to the damages caused by Hurricane Katrina we have been closed since then, but we are open once again.....
WE PRIDE OURSELVES IN PROVIDING EXCELLENT CONDITIONED CD'S, DVD'S, AND CD-FORMAT VIDEO GAMES/SOFTWARE . You will be very happy with the condition of the cd's themselves. We do not sell anything that skips, and 99.8% of our cd's look brand new (we resurface them, and you can't see the resurfacing marks...we are VERY good at it!!). WE GUARANTEE THEM TO PLAY PROPERLY (except for international buyers that buy without contacting us first). Please note that 99.999% of our DVD's are North America format, so INTERNATIONAL BUYERS BEWARE!!!....IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A DVD PLAYER THAT WILL PLAY THE NORTH AMERICAN FORMAT, PLEASE DO NOT BID ON OUR DVD'S!!!....
ALL DVD'S, CD'S, VIDEO GAMES, AND PIECES OF SOFTWARE WILL BE SHIPPED IN BUBBLE PACK MAILERS, AND WE DO USE 1ST CLASS WHEN AVAILABLE (UP TO 13 OUNCES, THEN WE DEFAULT TO MEDIA MAIL RATE). IF YOU WANT YOUR ITEMS SHIPPED FASTER THAN THIS, PLEASE CONTACT US AFTER PURCHASING ALL OF YOUR ITEMS AND I WILL MAKE THE PROPER ARRANGEMENTS WITH YOU. :)
On that note, all international bidders MUST CONTACT US PRIOR TO BIDDING AND/OR PURCHASE OF ANY OF OUR PRODUCTS. This is done in order to assure that the item(s) can be shipped to your location and that the proper s&h rate is quoted, and if you want to purchase DVD's I want to make sure that you know you will need a DVD player that will play Region 1 (North American) Format, or that you have a computer with the capability to play the disc.
In addition, we give HUGE breaks on s&h for additional items purchased. Shipping and Handling is $4.00 for the 1st CD shipped, $1.50 each additional CD. Please contact me if you want to purchase 10 or more items, as the s&h may drop even more. Please check the stock in my eBay store, you will find hundreds and hundreds of CD's and DVD's (at current count well over 500 DVD's), and in the next few weeks we will be adding hundreds and hundreds of music cd's and more role playing game books to the store, so keep an eye on us if you want. We also gladly accept customer want lists, as we are constantly getting new stock in. :) If you have a question please ask with enough time prior to closing. I will be happy to assist you.
We aim to be the best source for like new conditioned used CD's, DVD's, and video games/software on eBay. We will make every effort possible to make you happy with your purchases, and we would love to count you as one of our valued long-term customers.
Terms Of Shipment:
Packages will be sent 1st class mail until the package exceeds 13 ounces, at which time we will use media mail postage. Media mail moves just as fast as Parcel Post does, and it is designed for items that I sell here on eBay. Delivery confirmation is included if you pay via Paypal, but insurance is not. You will have to pay extra if you want insurance. We will be shipping the order in a bubble pack mailer.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS (Outside of the USA) MUST CONTACT US BEFORE BIDDING. NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE PLEASE. SHIPPING AND HANDLING TO OVERSEAS ADDRESSES IS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE, AND WE NEED TO CONFIRM THAT THE PACKAGE CAN BE DELIVERED TO YOUR ADDRESS/LOCATION!
While we guarantee that the disc(s) will play, we cannot refund s&h (since it is a hard, sunk cost and cannot be recovered).
In addition, winning bidders of multiple auctions will receive increadible breaks in the overall s&h rate.
Thanks For Looking, and in the case that this is an auction, GOOD LUCK!

Recording information: 1993.
With DEBUT, the Icelandic thrush Bjork Godmundsdottir (late of the Sugarcubes) brings her knowing innocence and quirky voice to bear on an engaging program of renegade pop tunes. The unusual instrumental textures on songs such as "Human Behavior," fleshed out with timpani, small percussion instruments, vibraphones and harps, suggests a post-modern version of Phil Spector.
As a singer, Bjork's swooping octave leaps and guttural cries betray the elemental contradictions in her music. She projects the girlish innocence and barely constrained sensuality of a wise child, old beyond her years (the techno-reggae romanticism of "Venus As A Boy," the bouncy house changes of "Big Time Sensuality" and "Violently Happy"), and sometimes she sounds like she's trying to rediscover how such doe-eyed love might actually feel, as if for the first time (the mysterious groove of "One Day" and the jazzy standard "Like Someone In Love," with its spare harp accompaniment).
There's a pronounced techno feel to DEBUT, with its airy synthesizers and spacious, uncluttered mixes, but without the cool, mechanized detachment of that genre. On "Aeroplane" Bjork combines a saxophone quartet with Middle Eastern-flavored percussion to steer her tale of obsessive love just outside of the pop mainstream, while the unusual saxophone harmonies of "The Anchor Song" lend a folkish color to her extended metaphors on home and erotic immersion. It's precisely Bjork's sense of adventure that gives DEBUT such a cool exotic flavor.

Q (12/01/1999)
9 - Excellent Plus - ...an album that believes music can be magical and special....
NME (07/03/1993)
4 Stars - Excellent - ...Bjork Godmundsdottir's voice was undoubtedly the jewel in The Sugarcubes' crown and in the relatively sparse setting of this solo debut she reclaims all her old wit and joissance....a surprising, playful collection...
Q (07/01/1993)
...what makes her singing memorable isn't the odd assortment of growls, moans and chirps she relies upon, but the emotions those sounds convey...
Musician (07/01/1993)
Ranked #1 in New Musical Express' list of the `Top 50 LPs Of 1993' - ...DEBUT is a musical treasure chest of organic techno beats, twinkly jazz serenades and otherworldly nursery rhymes, disregarding categories and [displaying] a bewitching faith in pop's ability to challenge...
NME (12/25/1993)
Ranked #6 in Melody Maker's list of the `Albums Of The Year' for 1993 - ...a fantastic DEBUT...
Melody Maker (01/01/1994)
Included in Q's list of `The 50 Best Albums Of 1993' - ...an album of tantalising contrasts....manages to be bubbly, exhilarating, brazenly dance-oriented and satisfying all at once...
