Mick Farren (Deviants) - Vampires Stole My Lunch Money (Logo 1010, UK 1978) m-/ex(*) €10
Most of this plays M- but it's a poor quality pressing so I've graded it EX.
Specific problems are a mark at the start of side 1 causes some ticks for about 10 seconds;
and some naps on side 2.

Canadian rural commune folk band with ties to Pied Pumkin. Second LP which I've
seen described elsewhere as "...a bit similar to late period Perth County
Conspiracy..." who I've never heard of! This is hippy folk psych recorded
in Vancouver in 1978 and 1979. Fabulous cover artwork.

Peter French (Leafhound) - Ducks In Flight LP (Polydor 2417 117, Germany 1978) insert EX/EX SOLD(€25)
Original issue (later reissued in a different cover in 1980).
Peter French was the singer with Leafound and later Cactus. On this album he is backed
by guitarists Brain Robertston (Thin Lizzy), Mick Moody (Whitesnake, SNAFU) and drummer
Kenny Jones (Small Faces, The Who). All but one songs are co-written with guitarist
Mick Halls who was French's partner in Leafhound, and he also plays on a couple of tracks.
However the songs aren't great IMO (the same is true of Leafhound's LP). They're
about the same level as a band like Detective... which means it's down to the band to
lift it above the arerage. And this they do on several tracks, especially on a particular
type of stomping bluesrock track which brings to mind AC/DC, Nazareth (circa Razamanazz),
and the very best songs by Michael Des Barres (Silverhead, Detective).
The album belongs to Robertson, his playing is fantastic and quite a contrast to his usual
style in Thin Lizzy. There are also a couple of early 70s Rod Stewart ballads which are
not bad. A fine (if completely backwards looking) late 70s hard rock album.
Robert Fripp - Exposure LP (E.G. Records 2302 092, Holland 1979) w/inner ex/ex €10
Fred Frith - Guitar Solos LP (Caroline C1508, UK 1974) ex/ex €25

Full Moon(US) - s/t LP (Monster, US 90s) tss [300 copies] ex/ex €25
Limited 300 copy repress of US hard rock private pressing rarity from 1980.
Sounds a lot like Thin Lizzy.
Fuchsia - s/t LP (Kingdom KV 6002, France 1972) ex/m- €150
French issue in textured sleeve; the disc is beautiful, like new,
clean and shiny, with minor paper scuffs only; the sleeve has a
small bottom seam split; the screened cover has a lighter spot
on the back cover; but this is a fantastic copy, best I've ever
seen.
Full Circle - Buskin' LP (Michelle Records FCM 2000, IRL undated) VG+/EX- OFFERS
Rare private pressing. Full Circle were a Dublin club band containing
members of the Greenbeats among others. They were active 1978-85, so
this album must date from this period. All covers and mostly live
recordings. Full autographed. Impossible to find but not very good.
Seams have tape damage.
Gasoline Band - s/t LP (Cube Hifly 9, UK 1972) EX/EX €15
Geeza - Streetlife LP (RCA Laser VXLI 4046, Australia 1977) m-/m- €25
Nice original copy of this album. It's not hard rock to my ears, it's
mid-70s rock, no frills, no synths, good basic rock with a good cover
of Bowie's "Jean Genie". Hard to find a Laser edition in good condition
and this one is near mint.
Genesis - Trespass LP (Impulse! AS-9205, US 1970) foc dh ex+/ex+ €20

London Rainbow Theatre 1.1.77 and ROyal Theatre 4.5.80)
Genesis - Live DVD (Falcon FNM 0284, Germany 1973-74/200?) m/m €10
This bootleg collects material from the 73-74 tours, i.e. Genesis at their peak!
Mastered from video, 4:3 aspect ratio, and varying in quality, but an essential
artefact. In 3 parts: live at Shepperton Studios UK 30.10.73 (outstanding),
"Midnight Special" US TV 20.12.73 (good/average video quality) and
University Sports Arena, Montreal 20.04.74 (AKA "The Black Show" because of
the dark quality of the image; also some audio and video is missing).
As with the ELP DVD this is Region free and recorded in mono.
Genesis (US) - In the Beginning LP (Mercury 134 096, NL 1969) toc ex-/vg+ €16,50
Rare dutch pressing (in thick US style sleeve) of this fabulous late 60s
psychedelic platter with lots of fuzz guitar... the disc has some hairlines
and plays with some background noise but no skips, jumps or scratches. A nice
filler copy, and a very rare edition to boot.
Gentle Giant - The Original Studio Gentle Giant Vol.1 LP (Fontana 9286 873, Italy 1970-72/1974) spotting on bc ex-/ex €15
Italian only release from 1974 with unique cover artwork, a surprisingly coherent
compilation drawn from the first 3 studio albums. You should get the original
albums if you don't already have them -- this comp is for completists only.
Gentle Giant - s/t LP (Super Star SU-1026, Italy 1980) foc+booklet M-/M- €20
Italian compilation of tracks drawn from the first four albums 1970-73.
However the selling point of the Super Star series was the incredible
booklet that came with each release. The 12-pages contains some
fantastic full colour photographs. Some sources list the release
date as 1982.
Geronimo Black - s/t LP (Uni 6369 619, NL 1972) +insert, textured cover, slight sticker shadow ex/ex €35
When Frank Zappa broke up the original Mothers in 1969-70, drummer
Jimmy Carl Black formed Geronimo Black along with other ex Mothers
Bunk Gardner (keys/horns) and Denny Walley (guitar, also in Capt.
Beefheart's Magic Band and he wrote one of the first Zappa biographies)
and Jay Contrelli, ex Love.
"Their first album was produced by Keith Olsen (the former Music
Machine/Millenium member) and should particularly interest the Zappa
and Captain Beefheart fans. Musically it mixes blues (Low Ridin' Man),
instrumental tracks (Siesta, Quaker's Earthquake) and rock tracks
(Other Man, L.A. County Jail 59, Let Us Live); its high point being An
American National Anthem written by JC Black about the Indian
killings. The lyrics and musicianship are both really strong. Buzz
Gardner, Murray Roman and a small string section also played on this
underrated album."--Fuzz Acid & Flowers
This is the rare dutch issue in textured cover.
Gladstone - Lookin' For A Smile LP (ABC Records ABCX-778, USA 1973) css/dh/rw/sss/stoc/stobc VG+/EX €10
Looks better than all the collector syntax suggests (see pic). With the uncommon
childrens blocks ABC label. Texan rock/southern rock/acoustic/country rock.
Glass Harp - Song In The Air LP (Star Song SSR 0005, US 1971-73/1977) swoc ex/ex €15
Compilation drawn from the three Decca LPs.
Glory [US] - s/t LP (Avalanche AV-LA148-F, US 1973) cc ex/ex €30
Essentially the fourth Damnation LP, recorded without Adam Blessing, and released on
a small label. Tough to find now, though it's available as an Akarma reissue.
Brain Godding - Slaughter On Shaftesbury Avenue LP (Reckless RECK 16, UK 1981-88/1988) m-/m- €12
ex Blossom Toes, BB Blunder and Magma (!) guitarist, this is his debut solo LP recorded 1981-88.

Gong & Soft Machine & Family - s/t 2xLP (Byg 529201 / Actuel Vol.201, France 1973) foc EX/EX €49
I believe this recycles various BYG recordings by Gong, Soft Machine, Daevid Allen et al,
but I'm unsure of the exact makeup and the squiggeldy liner notes are too hard to follow.
One side is definitely all Soft Machine, the other 3 are presumably Gong and friends.
Beautiful cover.
Sam Gopal - Escalator LP (Get Back GET 523, Italy 1968/1999) foc M/M €19
Legit reissue, like new copy.
Grand Funk Railroad - E Plurinus Funk LP (Crash R209, US 1971) ex/ex €10
As far as I can tell, this is one of those infamous counterfeits pressed
by the mafia in the early 70s. It's an illegal, pirate edition of the band's
E Pluribus Funk LP. A rare curio.
Grand Funk Railroad - Live Album 2xLP (Capitol SWBB 80633, US 1971) foc +poster ex/ex €35

the debut in circulation.

Grateful Dead - T-shirt new €10
This is a brand new, never worn t-shirt I received as a present a couple of years ago
from someone who didn't realise I wouldn't be seen dead (no pun intended!) wearing such
a thing. But perhaps you have no such qualms?
It's an extremely high quality screened shirt from Liquid Blue. The design is called
"Classic". It retails for $27.95, so I'm selling it for less than half price.
If you buy all the Grateful Dead records on this page, you get this for free!
You can view the shirt at the Liquid Blue website.

(front)(back) Jimi Hendrix Experience - Axis Bold As Love LP (Barlay Panache 0820167, France 1967) VG/F- € 15
What you're buying here basucally is a cover, because the disc is scratched
beyond belief. Neither side will play. The labels are fine, however, and the
cover is in good order. Clean, unblemished front cover. Apart from some
creasing, a bottom seam split and a spine seam split, it'd be EX. A photo
will make that clear. The last Panache LP I had was the first one and that
had a chunk missing from the cover and it sold for €10 ! This one is
rarer, has a more attractive cover (IMO) and is in better nick, co €15
is more than reasonable. Suitable for framing, this is a gorgeous looking
elpee (and an original in EX or M condition would cost 100s!!).

Late 70s hippie-punk crossover festival band, Gong meets Hawkwind. As far as
I can recall, Here And Now were actually the Gong line up that recorded the
Live Floating Anarchy LP and became Planet Gong backing both Allen and Gilly
Smyth. This LP and the split with Alternative TV are the two Here And Now
records worth hearing IMO. This is in fact a new copy, only suffering from
from a little ringwear due to storage conditions.

half-speed master edition; disc has a tiny mark in the run-in groove ("dead

Note sure of the date -- early 80s maybe? -- in any case a later
pressing of Crimson's fourth LP, not everyone's cup of tea, but
34 years later it sounds pretty good to me. If anything, Crimson
are still under-rated, and all their 70s output should be owned
by everyone!

King Sunny Ade - Syncro Chapter 1 LP (Sunny Alade SALPS7, Nigeria 1977) ex/ex €75
Rare original in remarkable condition, released on his own Sunny Alade
label. This pre-dates his Island debut by 4 years. Two side long tracks
with very little synth (the bane of african records IMO, how many Diblo
Dibala records were ruined by cheesy/breezy synth arragements?) Only
offered once on ebay and the moron in question compared it to Hendrix.
This is nothing like Hendrix (except he's black and plays guitar).
A fantastic find. Fabulous Sun Ra-esque cover.

(back) Jimi Hendrix Experience - Axis Bold As Love LP (Barlay Panache 0820167, France 1967) VG/F- € 15
What you're buying here basucally is a cover, because the disc is scratched
beyond belief. Neither side will play. The labels are fine, however, and the
cover is in good order. Clean, unblemished front cover. Apart from some
creasing, a bottom seam split and a spine seam split, it'd be EX. A photo
will make that clear. The last Panache LP I had was the first one and that
had a chunk missing from the cover and it sold for €10 ! This one is
rarer, has a more attractive cover (IMO) and is in better nick, co €15
is more than reasonable. Suitable for framing, this is a gorgeous looking
elpee (and an original in EX or M condition would cost 100s!!).
