I've picked up some nice albums recently including a
whole collection of Beatles from a guy I'd met over the
summer at a car boot and had given my card to then 3 months
later he actually rang me up! Other stuff included...
Signed by the band who sound like an unfunny,
low budget Barron Knights, but at least the sleeve is hilarious
A great German pressing of a compilation of 60's R&B.
Sealed but it's all up there on Youtube anyway.
The sleeve alone was enough to part me with a pound,
but it turned out to be soft Hong Kong pop, damn
I was more than happy to part with 100 pennies for this
first vinyl outing by John Cleese & two Goodies
Best buy of the week, by some distance was an entire Beatles
collection along with various solo stuff, I probably have them all
on vinyl or CD somewhere but this lot were in such beautiful
condition there are keepers and there were some pretty scarce
issues in there.
Some issues of the US 'Trunk sleeve' had the cover pasted
over the withdrawn 'Butcher sleeve', but judging by the small
tear to the bottom someone had tried to find it underneath,
without much luck.
There were 2 different issues of Abbey Road one with the
mis-aligned Apple sleeve.
Although it was a later issue to the first top-opening editions,
a numbered White Album with all the bits was nice to find.
