US original of classic 1969 UK folk-psych LP, featuring brother sister duo,
Sally and Mike Oldfield, Mike still a teenager. A must for fans of ethereal
UK acid folk with femme vocals.
Santoro (Angelo Noce Santoro) - For You LP (private GLP 7929, NL 1979) sticker on label ex/ex €25
first solo album, songs span 1971-79 (ex-Cosmic Dealer)
Saturnalia - Magical Love LP (Matrix TRIX 1, UK 1969) picture disc na/ex €29
UK psych band related to Horse. Second issue from 1973 of this beautiful picture disc. B-side scan Warren Schatz - s/t LP (CBS 64681, NL 1971) EX-/EX €25
Better known now as a producer (Banchee, Yesterday's Children), Schatz
had several mid-60 pop/rock singles on Tower as Ritchie Dean, and then
formed a succession of studio groups (The Pendants, The Petrified
Forest, The Warmest Spring, The Shapes Of Things, The Whispers) whose
singles now turn up on 60s garage-punk comps. This was his debut solo LP.
It's a mixed bag of styles, some good stuff, some singer-songwriter
snoozes. Both this and his second LP from 1973 were issued in
different territories with different covers, including Finland (2nd LP
on Love/Trilogy LTRC-3; Love also licensed the Yesterday's Children LP
Love/Trilogy Records LTRC-4), Brazil (2nd LP), Romania (1st LP, Electrecord
ST-EDE 01001) and Poland (Muza SXL0937) to name a few. Schatz later worked
as an orchestral arranger during the disco era and his name appears on many
records. Like a less hip version of David Axelrod ! That's probably more than
you ever needed to know about Warren Schatz. Anyway, this is the dutch CBS
original of his first LP with fantastic front cover artowrk.

Drop me a line if you can explain what 'fat', 'wicked', 'beatheads' and 'heavy ass' mean.

LA studio muso jazzrock outing with Craig Doerge (all keyboards incl. organ, moog, piano),
Danny Kortchmar (guitar), Leland Sklar (bass), Russ Kunkel (drums) and various guest
percussionists.
Sensations Fix - Vision's Fugitives LP (All Ears SF 11478, US 1977) w/inserts, st m-/m- €39
This is a perfect copy of the very hard to find fifth or sixth LP, more
experimental than previous works, delving into ambient terrains at times.
Seventh Wave - Things to Come LP (Gull GULP 1001, UK 1974) ex-/m- €10
Electronic rock by Ken Elliot and Kieran O'Connor, both ex-Secondhand

Shoes - Greatest Hits LP (Polydor Medium 236 813, NL 1969) flipback sleeve ex/ex €15
Not the US power pop band, this is the dutch 60s pop/rock group comparable to
The Hollies with some psych-pop moves.

Official live tape released on the Freeman brothers Auricle cassette label.
Frank Sinatra - Watertown LP (Reprise FS 1031, Germany 1969) ex/ex €12
I bought this out of curiosity because of the Jake Holmes/Four Seasons connection
but it sounds just like any other Sinatra LP to me -- painful. Apparently quite hard
to find, this is the one and only German pressing from 1969, with the tri-colour Reprise
label but with a pic of Frank in the smallest of the 3 sections of the label.

Rare solo LP from Peggy's Leg guitarist.
Sly & Family Stone - Greatest Hits LP (Epic EPC 32279, Holland 1970) later issue ex/m- €10
Originally issued in 1970 after four albums, this is a later, undated press
of this singles collection which includes "I Want to Take You Higher", "Dance
to the Music", "You Can Make It If You Try" and non-LP singles "Hot Fun in the
Summertime", "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Again)" and "Everybody Is a
Star". Joyous funky psychedelic soul music.
Small Faces - Magic Moments LP (Immediate/NEMS IML 1008, UK 1976) ex/ex €13
Great compilation housed in a great cover.
Socrates - Phos LP (Vertigo 6331 950, Greece 1976) M-/M- OFFERS
Greek Vertigo original issue
(Soft Machine) 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.
Soixantes Etages - Wheatfields LP (33 Revipermi 9001, France 1990?) tss m-/m- €30
Debut by ground-breaking French free rock ensemble. Hints of post-RIO and post-
NYC guitar abuse, but with a distinct French otherness. A strange, fantastic and
powerful LP. File alongside RWA and Voodoo Muzak.
Spontaneous Combustion - Triad LP (Harvest SW-11095, US 1972) die-cut cover +inner ew/dh EX/EX €24
Fantastic progressive hard rock with some gentler, more melodic moments.
Side one is especially good. Hard to find as a UK press. This US edition has
the same die-cut design. For 70s hard rock fans a la Ginhouse.

Fabulous Detroit rock band. If you're enlightened enough to recognise the
brilliance of the first Cheap Trick LP, then check this out...
Steamhammer - s/t LP (CBS Reflection 63611, UK 1969) foc EX/M- €65
First Reflection edition.. Steamhammers albums came out in lots of different

Irish singer songwriter, real name Carl Corcoran, married to Rosemary
Taylor who made the elusive "Taylor Maid" LP. This is a promo copy of

cover. Spawned one single "Gulliver".

Third and final album, this was released in the UK and Germany but the
commercial breakthrough never happened. Think Leo Sayer. Another promo.

80s issue
Stray - Stand Up And Be Counted LP (Dawn DNLS 3066, UK 1975) +insert ex/ex €30
rare Dawn original with insert, getting very hard to find.
This was the band's sixth LP and probably the best outside the first three,
thanks largely to the arrival of new guitarist Pete Dyer who injected some
fire into what had become a somewhat tired-sounding band. But start with the
first three LPs!
Stray Dog - While You're Down There LP (Manticore MA6-501S1, US 1974) co ex/m- €12

cuts.
(Thin Lizzy) Funky Junction - A Tribute To Deep Purple LP (Gold Stereo Award MER 373, UK 1973) EX/EX €30
Deep Purple covers "tribute" album recorded by Thin Lizzy (Lynott-Downey-Bell lineup)
for a 'dodgy German businessman'. Note that vocals are not by Lynott, they're by
Bernie White, singer with an unrecorded Dublin band called Elmer Fudd. To avoid
disappointment, I should point out that some tracks are pretty bad(!), but there's
good stuff too and this is an essential purchase for early Lizzy fans IMO.
Billy Thorpe - Time Traveller 2xLP (Blue Goose MFL 2335, Australia 1980) foc, rw ex/ex €33

Traffic - More Heavy Traffic LP (United Artists UA-LA526-G, USA 1967-71/1975) coh sobc EX/EX €10
Issued within the space of a couple of months, UA should have released a double-LP
and be done with it! The first volume has good liner notes but the second has
superior artwork. Draws on the first four albums plus the famous pre-LP 1967
singles. A good intro to the band.
Trees - Garden of Jane Delawney LP (Decal LIK 15, UK 1970/1987) ex/ex €45
Hard to find late 80s issue, still the only official vinyl reissue
of this classic folk psych album. Originals cost a fortune these days
but clean copies of this reissue now sell on ebay for a tidy sum.

Unknown outside Belgium/Holland, Verminnen (vocals/guitar) made some interesting vlaamsrock albums
in the 1970s. This is his second with heavy involvement from Raymond van het Groenewoud and guest
Burt Blanca.
Village Green - Our Generation LP (Triskel TRL 1004, IRL 1978) vg+/ex €25
There aren't that many Irish celtic rock LPs from the 70s. There are lots
of singles which would make a great comp but not that many LPs -- well this
is half of one. Just over half the tracks are comparable to Horslips, Spud,
Keltic Wine, Mushroom, the Rascals, mid-70s Skid Row even; the rest is folk
rock, nice enough but nothing special. A tough one to find. Triskell was
a Dolphin and like all late 70s records on this label, the cover is wafer
thin and has suffered soem edgewear and creasing as a result: no tears or
rips, no seam splits, no writing, just a little but aged. Recommended to
Horslips fans -- there's even a perfect Horslips copycat track.

Water - The Second Day LP (Philips 6410 081, NL 1975) ex/ex €12
Dutch progressives, melodic, flowing, easy on the histrionics... I quite like
these two LPs but I have 10,000 LPs now and I just gotta sell some of them!
Second Day is their first LP -- does that make the title a pun?
Water - Damburst LP (Universe Special Products/Vertigo SP-2/6816 002, NL 1976/1979) ex/ex €12

places (front and back fully laminated); label is clean, no spindling, and

psych touches.

front cover back cover Yes - Yes Years VIDEO (PAL/VHS) (Warner 8536 50250-3, Europe 1991) ex/ex €10
2+ hours of material spanning the bands career to date (the Union tour) with the
emphasis firmly on the 70s years, which takes up well over half the running time.
My only complaint would be that Patrick Moraz is not interviewed or given enough
credit (Relayer is THEE under-rated Yes album IMO). An absolute must for die-hard
fans, I'm only selling this because I have it on DVD now. Highly recommended.
Yes - Stellar Attraction 2xLP (Singers Original Double Disc SODD 008, US 1974) EX/EX €75
live Boston 1974; rare original SODD boot
(Yes >>) Johnny Harris - All To Bring You Morning LP (Warner K46187, UK 1973) ex/ex €20
Johnny Harris did soundtrack and 'lounge' stuff in the 60s and 70s.
I don't know much about this scene but he'd be considered a couple of
notches below David Axelrod. Movements is usually considered his best
album.
This album may be his 'rock' LP; it includes several rock musicians like
Chris Spedding but most interesting is the presence of Jon Anderson,
Steve Howe and Alan White of Yes, most particularly on the 14 minute
title track (the best track on the album) which also turned up on the
Yes sideprojects bootleg CD of a few years ago. Other players include
Pete Kirtley (guitar), Colin Gibson (bass) and Steve Gregory (sax, flute)
who all went on to play on Alan White's Ramshackled LP in 1975.
The relayer site reckons its "ultra rare" but I dunno about that. I'd
say it's hard to find alright, and an unusual Prog/Lounge crossover album,
so I think 20 euro is a very reasonable asking price.

Zzebra - Panic LP (Polydor 2383 326, UK 1975) M-/EX- €9
Very excellent jazzrock elpee, not mindblowing but a superior example of the genre
and the kind of thing I really like myself. Not too well known either so it's still cheap
if you can find it. Notable presence of Tommy Eyre. This a nice minty copy until I
noticed a weird zigzag mark at the start of size 2 dammit! It only affects the start
but even so I've priced this way down.

With Jan Akkerman and Thijs van Leer of Focus; the band is famously good on
this hard to find dutch issue of this (horrible IMO) musical. Crackily in places.
Very bare sound compared to the UK issue. This is exactly what Tokyo Kid

v/a - Song Of A Young Country. New Zealand Folksongs 2xLP (Kiwi Pacific SLC 101/102, NZ 1971) foc+booklet EX/EX €55
A fantastic find but as this is not really my taste I'm putting it up for grabs.
This contains unique, exclusive Tamburlaine recordings. There's other good stuff
here too and it's quite varied -- it's not all male ballad singers and acoustic
guitars by any means. Artists include Neil Colquohoun, Driving Creek, Phil Garland,
Dave Skinner, etc. Not names I know to be honest. Kiwi Pacific issued Tamburlaine's
first LP "Say No More" the same year.

back cover Yes - Yes Years VIDEO (PAL/VHS) (Warner 8536 50250-3, Europe 1991) ex/ex €10
2+ hours of material spanning the bands career to date (the Union tour) with the
emphasis firmly on the 70s years, which takes up well over half the running time.
My only complaint would be that Patrick Moraz is not interviewed or given enough
credit (Relayer is THEE under-rated Yes album IMO). An absolute must for die-hard
fans, I'm only selling this because I have it on DVD now. Highly recommended.
