SOFT MACHINE Original BBC Pop Spectacular Transcription Disc LP Elton Dead
SEE OUR OTHER RARE RECORDS & MEMORABILIA
An scarce Mint Condition ORIGINAL BBC Transcription Disc of "Soft Machine and Heavy Friends" recorded live at London's Paris Theatre on March 11, 1971. In this concert Soft Machine were joined by the Elton Dean Quintet, Mark Charig, Roy Babbington, Mike Ratlidge, and Ronnie Scott. These were made in extremely limited numbers--perhaps 50 only--and sent to UK and Commonwealth radio stations, which usually played them once. Consequently they are extremely rare and sought after. This is in beautiful mint condition, and we'd guess it has been played a few times at most (some spindle marks are the only sign of any play.) Housed in the original generic sleeve this unfortunately it no longer has the "cue sheet." Superb fidelity, courtesy of the BBC's expert engineers. Tracks include Blind Badger/Neo Caliban Grides/Out Bloody Rageous/Eamonn Andrews/All White/Kings And Queens/Teeth/Pigling Bland/10:30 Returns To The Bedroom."CLICK HERE TO SEE OUR "ME" PAGE FOR MORE ABOUT OUR HIGH-END RARE RECORDS AND ONE-OF-A-KIND MUSIC COLLECTIBLES.

Gold is a frequent consultant to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland and the Experience Music Project in Seattle. He authenticated previously unknown Bob Dylan lyric manuscripts for PBS's "History Detectives," appeared as a featured appraiser on VH1's "ROCK COLLECTORS," and has been profiled as a top dealer and collector in the books "Vinyl Junkies" by Brett Milano and "Retromania: Pop Culture's Addiction to it's Own Past" by Simon Reynolds.
Gold is author of the new book "101 ESSENTIAL ROCK RECORDS: THE GOLDEN AGE OF VINYL, FROM THE BEATLES TO THE SEX PISTOLS," a definitive survey of seminal rock albums, picturing rare first pressing LP's, and featuring contributions from musicians including Peter Buck (REM), David Bowie, Nels Cline (Wilco), Robyn Hitchcock, Johnny Marr (The Smiths), Graham Nash, Iggy Pop, Suzanne Vega and others.

We welcome International buyers and ship around the world every week.
US & Canada Shipping: $9 for 1-2 LP's by insured Priority Mail (Ebay’s recent rule change requires us to offer Media Mail shipping for records, at $4.00 for 1 LP. As this is a very slow method of shipping and uninsured, we cannot guarantee safe delivery by this method and strongly recommend paying extra for the much quicker and safer Priority Mail.) $15 for 1-2 posters, shipped priority mail in a new mailer/tube & US orders are automatically insured for up to $200 in value. Calif. buyers add 8.75% sales tax (calculated automatically by Paypal.) All other items shipped at cost.
International Shipping: $16 for 1 LP airmail without insurance. $4 for each additional LP; $21 for 1-2 posters. All other items shipped at cost. Because of problems with the Italian Post Office, we highly recommend either insured or registered mail for all Italian orders and cannot be responsible for any order shipped to Italy without one or the other of these.
