INDIE / ALT / PUNK - LP COLLECTION (INC PRESS RELEASES / LETTERS FROM BAND / MANAGEMENT ECT). A great collection of 15 x (mostly) 1990s LPs including test pressings, deleted rarities - some will contain extra promo material. Artists/ Titles include Sun City Girl - Horse Cock Phepner (sealed), Descendents (SST 112, sealed), The Bevis Frond - Miasma, Dead Can Dance - Spleen And Ideal (test pressing), The Pogues - Rum Sodomy & the Lash, Various Artists - Heroes (RDR2), Microdisney - The Clock Comes Down The Stairs, Shockabilly - Shockabilly Heaven, Lloyd Cole And The Commotions, 4000 Telephones, Systembeatwo, Laughing All The Way To The Banks (The Riverside Club Compilatio LP) and Laidbach. The condition is generally Ex to Ex+. The inner sleeves (typically the original company issue) will sometimes contain John's handwritten track timings and can also contain John's rating that he put on certain songs by way of stars. 1 star would mean that John would consider it for air play with 2 or 3 stars indicating that he rated the song extremely highly and would more than likely be played. These tasting notes are a fascinating insight into John's musical taste which can now be fully explored.
