Description
Hi & hello, I have been in the music industry since 1970. I began working at Polydor Records UK at Stratford Place. London W1.the offices also included Atlantic UK & Elektra UK, with Track 'recording artists' also incorporated under the 'Polydor' flag at that time.
I have worked as second studio engineer with Polydor's producer Carlos Olms ( whose credits include Jimi Hendrix, Rory Gallagher, Level 42 to name only three )
I have worked in the studio with 'The Bee Gees'.
As a 'soundman' working with Colin Hannah, (credits USA & World Tours U2 & Sir Tom Jones et al )
sound crew/ roadie/recording & gigging musician, with 40 + years experience in the music industry.
The time has come to reduce my collection of 7'' & 12'' vinyls, programmes, autographs, promos, cds & other music related items. On offer is :

VINYL PLAYS VERY WELL.WITH THE EXPECTED ODD CRACKLE ; MORE NOTICEABLE ON RUN- INS, RUN- OUTS AND DURING QUIETER PASSAGES Side C is generally a quiet side of music, and plays with a mild low-level click. It is not a loud click'.In my opinion it does not interfere with the overall listening experience.
