Rare Ya Ho Wa "It's A Knack" / "Angel Boy" vinyl single Here's one you don't see very often, a promo copy of the early Ya Ho Wa single "It's A Knack" b/w "Angel Boy" on the Higherkey label. As of this posting, there are 4 days left in the auction, which has a starting bid of £100 (US$162).

Very rarely for sale, this record was included in the 1998 God & Hair 13xCD set compiled by Ya Ho Wa member Sky Saxon. The box set itself is hard to find, but is sometimes found for as low as $100, making this single one for collectors only who want a complete Ya Ho Wa set.

Original Ya Ho Wa 13 records, put out by the psychedelic musical band made up of members of the L.A.- and Hawaii- based Source Family, are exceedingly difficult to find. It's exciting to see one for sale like this! If you collect Ya Ho Wa (Ya Ho Wha) 13 this is a great opportunity, because it could be quite a while before this is seen again.

See the eBay page here.

Update: The record didn't get any bids and remained unsold. This is surprising because this is of such interest to Sky Saxon/psych music colletors, but understandable since the seller had a £100 ($160 US) minimum bid.
