I am selling this record on behalf of my friend John D. Berry, who writes: “I bought this collection in the late 1900s from John Ellison, a friend who was working (as I was) as a technical editor at Microsoft. John and his partner Lesley Link were starting a small publishing house, Broken Moon Press, and wanted to raise money to fund this endeavor. John had been a Rolling Stones fan and a devoted record collector, but he decided to sell his collection as part of the publishing effort. I was not especially a Stones fan, but I was willing to buy the collection to help the cause, figuring that I could always re-sell it later, probably for more than I paid.

“John was a very serious collector. Most of these vinyl disks have never been played, and many of them are extremely rare. They all date from no later than the mid-1980s; many of them are from the 1970s or 1960s. Quite a few are bootlegs, unauthorized but tolerated iterations of particular recording sessions or performances. For many years, these bootlegs could not be sold, even when they were approved by the artists; these days, however, that worry seems to be a dead letter, and lots of bootlegs show up on eBay and other selling sites.”

Payment through Paypal preferred. Buyer pays actual postage from Seattle, WA. I’ve done my best to anticipate the weight of safe packing materials for these extremely rare vinyl recordings, but if you are overcharged at any point, I will refund your overpayment. I welcome bids from buyers outside the U.S., and I am especially happy to combine several items to save on international or domestic postage.
