    Charity shop finds on a recent trip to Wales via stopovers in Penrith and Preston.

    A dodgy bootleg recording of The Beatles album issued in Taiwan in 1970. It's thin paper sleeve is fully lined in polythene inside & out with no inner sleeve and the sound quality is pretty grim by usual standards.


    In the same box was this weirdy art sleeved album of cover versions released in France in 1976, same LP was issued in a different sleeve as The Beatles Golden Songs in UK & Canada.


    These seven Japanese Yamaha keyboard wizards were showing off their skills at the 1971 Tokyo Song Festival.


    A great sleeve and reliable label for this album I took a £2 punt on, I initially assumed it was Ike Turner but it's the Burmese-British jazz guitarist Ike Isaacs.

    A scarce privately pressed 7" from a Scottish rock band, the woman I bought this from told me she picked it up at one of their gigs in Forfar in 1972.

    Best buy of my trip south was a whole bunch of Jazz singles in a pound box, these were the ones in picture sleeves.
