Description

Hello- I'm Bill, and over the next few weeks I'll be selling off my treasured record collection, a course of action forced on me by an imminent move and enforced retirement. I've collected music all my adult life, and will be sad to see it all go . My tastes have varied over the years, as you'll see, but folk and rock have been the backbone of my collection.Over the next few weeks there will be some rarities appearing, believe me! All records will be in at least EX condition, and a lot of NM's too. I'm loathe to use NM, once it's played, it's played, but I try to stick to the RC guidelines, even if my grading is too severe! All records are inspected under a good light, and none are cleaned, only brushed. I know everyone has their own favourite cleaning methods, so why deprive you of the pleasure?

Now back after a longer than expected hospitalisation and recovery, I’m fit and back on course. Many apologies to those of you who have been waiting to see what comes next. Hopefully this weekend’s offerings will satisfy!......Bill.

 

This is the first of my four Fairport Convention offerings today. The rarest of them all, the ubiquitous Radio Sampler. Only 500 made for Radio station use, their rarity was guaranteed from the outset.

Because the covers were in white card, with no lamination, they all look a bit grubby. I’ve never found a bright white one, and believe me I looked!

 

Label……………………Island ISS-2A, ISS-2B

Year…………………….1975

Matrices………………...ISS 2 A1 U,  ISS 2 B1 U.  ( First and only pressing)

 

Cover condition..............EX

Insert condition..............N/A

Extremely rare these days, this one is a real collector’s piece.

All records are repacked into Nagaoka anti-static sleeves and card inners, with the original inners and cover separate to maintain condition, and posted in heavy duty mailers wth stiffeners.Postage is a non-profit affair- no £5 jobs here!

All will be sold with NO reserve, so bid away, and good luck!

I prefer PAYPAL for payment, and I don’t pass on their charges!
