ARTIST: RADIO BIRDMAN
TITLE: "RADIOS APPEAR"
FORMAT: …vinyl LP…
LABEL: Trafalgar/WEA
CATALOGUE #: TRL-1001
1977 Australian release…their first album...WEA-distributed issue
...front cover is signed in silver pen by ALL 6 lauded members, meaning the 5 who recorded this (Warwick Gilbert, Deniz Tek, Rob Younger, Chris Masuak, and Ron Keeley), plus Pip Hoyle...guaranteed authentic (I bought this LP from the very journalist to whom it's dedicated to [in the bottom left corner])...
The signatures are ABSOLUTELY GENUINE...I can vouch for this 100%, as I was involved with the band myself in those early years and know their signatures very well...I can also verify that the journalist in question knows them all as well...
CONDITION: the cover is in VG+ condition - it has a crease at left and a bit of ringwear lower right...the signatures of Gilbert, Younger, and Tek are all clean, and there's a wee bit of ringwear sliding through the signatures of Masuak, Keeley, and Hoyle...as you can see in the scan it's not too drastic at all....the record, if you're considering playing it...is VG (some surface marks but no deep scratches or the like)...and the labels (pic of band) are clean...mint in fact...there's no insert, by the way...
All up, I'd have to say this is one of the best examples of a signed first album I've seen....and there's very few in existence, as back then, they virually never signed albums at all...
If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).
You can pay in US$'s or UK pounds, or Australian dollars.
(or EURO...but not EURO via Paypal).

PAYMENT
OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA:You can pay by: 1. Money Order (you'll need to add a US$4 exchange fee for a Western Union m/o or a US Postal m/o ; or a US$8 exchange fee for any other non-Australian dollar money order)
.. .. ..or.. .. ..
2. CASH (MUST be in a registered envelope..ONLY)
.. .. ..or.. .. ..
3. via Western Union Auction Payments (WUAP...was Bidpay) (you need to add a US$4 exchange fee for payments via WUAP/Bidpay)
.. .. ..OR.. .. ..
4. Paypal..easiest and cheapest way is to just use your normal account and select to pay in AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS, in which case there are no extra fees...BUT...if you wamt to pay in UK pounds (GBP) or U.S. dollars (US$)..you should know that Paypal unfortunately (for us all), charge we here in Australia, a hidden exchange rate fee which equates to 7% (.. ..it WAS originally 14%, then 11% until early Dec.2002); so it's not as bad as it was, and still a tad cheeky and unfair (this is NOT to be confused with their normal fees, which I will, of course, pay for); but, all the same, IF you’re prepared to cover that 7% exchange fee,
you CAN use Paypal
(it still works out cheaper [and obviously faster] than W.U.A.P.or registering cash, for any amount below about US$100 / GBP50 )..its up to you, but PLEASE don’t think I condone their business practices; the other options are there for you to use. [My alternative, otherwise, is to allow them to take that much from every item..and they do not disclose that this is what they do. If you don’t agree with covering for this (and why should you!), please do consider another option.]IN AUSTRALIA:
Pay by Paypal (in Australian dollars...with NO fees to be added), Money Order, Bank Cheque, Personal Cheque (allow 5 days for clearance)...or Direct Deposit into our account (quickest method, along with Paypal).. .. ..or cash (again, MUST be in a registered envelope).
