Your only chance to own this - Guaranteed!
The Pet Shop Boys are without doubt one of the most collectable bands of the 80's and there are a plethora of items from around the globe, both commercial and promotional, to suit every collectors taste, but from time to time an item crops up that takes even the most serious collectors breath away and this is that item. The legendary official 1993 UK Parlophone 7" pressed on BLUE VINYL. It's well documented in PSB circles and it's been confirmed that only 3 of these were pressed on blue vinyl (and 3 on red vinyl). It's considered to be the jewel in the crown of any serious collection and until recently all 3 copies were owned by the same collector (how's that for dedicated) but he has finally let one go to finance yet another PSB rarity, so now for the first and probably only time we are able to offer this fabulous rarity to other collectors, but be quick as I know this won't be around for long!

Vinyl acetate bonanza...
A batch of highly collectable original VINYL acetates have recently come into stock including titles from Tom Petty, Stevie Nicks, Steve Winwood, Aretha Franklin and Barbra Streisand. Only a handful of these are manufactured during the production process and even fewer survive...!

Cool Clothing To Keep You Warm In Winter
Just added is a selection of fabulous crew and promotional jackets with a great Stevie Nicks Rare 1985 US official promotional-only vintage warm padded silver/grey jacket and also a treat for Michael Jackson fans with a Smooth Criminal Rare 1987 US official promotional-only vintage Roadie red nylon silk effect lined baseball style crew-only jacket with the now familiar silver gloved hand on a black background embroidered in a fan-shape design on the back. If neither of those rock your boat how about this final example with a superb Guns N Roses heavyweight zip-front black canvas sleeveless jacket, issued exclusively to members of the rigging crew working at a gig held at The National bowl, Milton Keynes on 29/30 May 1993.

SEX !!!!
Just Kidding ...
 

Another busy weekend ahead. Tonight is little Tommy Palmer at a local hostelry where a splendid time is guaranteed for all and their range of good beers is extraordinary.

Tomorrow night is the very wonderful Wilko Johnson Band at another local hostelry where I can be viewed pirouetting in a rather disturbing way on the top of a bar stool, which seems to be what usually happens when I attend a Wilko gig.

To cap it all, I shall be back here working to supply you all with wonderous goodies on Saturday.

So, if you intend to phone in this Saturday, please phone quietly as I may be a little delicate !

 

Have a fun weekend !

 

PS - If you are one of the lovely people who insist on wandering past my bedroom window at 3AM on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays yelling at the top of your voice - Please stop !!

It's not very nice of you, it keeps me awake & it makes me have strange unnatural thoughts involving mincers & external body parts and I'm quite a peaceable chap at heart.

Thanks.

you gotta pick a PUZZLE or two....
...So sang Ron Moody in the rehearsals for Lional Bart's 'Oliver' before they realised that a gang of street urchins roaming Victorian London looking for jigsaw puzzles to steal may not make such a great movie, so changed it to 'gotta pick a pocket or two' and the rest is history.  If Fagin were around today and were sending a crack team of thieving youngsters to do his dirty work, top of his list no doubt would be the superb Beatles and Elvis puzzles that arrived here at Eil Towers this week.  Both brand new and hot off the press [or however they make puzzles these days] there are three Beatles titles [here, here and here] and two from Mr Presley [here and here] - get yourself an early Christmas present for a friend or loved-one, or maybe just ignore the lot of them and buy them for yourself - you're only young once!  Now, where was I....

Greece Was The Word
Hi Everyone.  Long time, no Blog. I was busy doing very little in Greece on holiday. Catching up with all of the new releases has been quite a chore, but my favorite new album by far is the new Robin Thicke album, “The Evolution Of Robin Thicke,” and most notably the album track “I Want Everything That I Can’t Have.”  Rather than listen to all the new releases on my iPod while sitting on the beach and staring at the sea, I listened to classics from yesteryear.  I was told by two passing French tourists that my choices of Mylene Farmer and Pet Shop Boys were “too gay.” Then they strolled over to the nearest gay bar to listen to a 3-hour loop of Hung Up by Madonna followed by another solid hour of Loleatta Holloway’s fantastic, updated version of Love Sensation ’06 I guess being “too gay” is somewhat subjective! As I get back into work-mode, watch our site this weekend for American limited edition album exclusives by Olivia Newton-John, The Killers, and Platinum Weird – the new project from Dave Stewart of Eurythmics.

ONJ or OCD - you decide

Many moons ago (July 1999 to be exact) we bought what must have been the single largest Olivia Newton-John collection in the world. You name it, he had it. Toomorrow singles, demos, LPs, posters, scrapbooks, displays and just about every other ONJ worldwide release on 7", LP and CD. But this was a bit different to your average collection; he had quantities. Not just 2 or 3, oh no, much too simple. Some titles were represented by a staggering number of multiple copies, for example, 50+ of the Japanese Crystal Lady LP, at least 20 of each Japanese EMI 7" single, 50+ of most UK EMI and Pye singles - you get the idea? It was as complete an ONJ collection as you are ever likely to see. Today I rediscovered a few boxes that I'd filed away for a rainy day and amongst the numerous unplayed/mint condition original LPs was a shoebox crammed full of photographs - there were 1357 of them (yes, I counted 'em all). I'm in the process of sorting through them to determine what's there but at first glance they appear to date mostly from the late 1970s. There are many candids, paparazzi, publicity and fan club images, live on stage, photos of TV appearances (including some that are quite literally photographs of the TV screen when ONJ appearances were broadcast), and, last but by no means least, photographs of 3 houses where ONJ once lived plus, drum roll please, the entrance to the maternity ward where she was born ! Go on, see if you can beat that...

My weekend was good: I got some old
capitol label 60's Mexican LP's in NM condition !!! ...I should be
making something wrong as from the last couple of weeks til now

buying in Mexico... condition, condition, condition .   I
have some great items held sourced from Colombia including coloured
vinyls by Shakin Stevens and Kraftwerk plus the incredibly difficult
Shakira peligro LP and the Madonna Veras & Amazing promotional CDs (click here

told there is going to be released a Rasmus CD+bonus live in Mexico

The Quiet One......
Wow! It's been a while since we stocked one of these - George Harrisons unrealeased Shanghai Suprise promo-only one sided 7", recorded for the movie of the same name (Featuring Madonna). The value of this 7" has increased greatly over the last couple of years with the few that were made disappearing into Beatle collections they just don't turn up anymore. It would make a great investment piece or maybe it's the one thing missing from your collection, either way it's unlikely to be around for long so don't delay....

Lost In France....
I've just arrived back in the office after a quick jaunt to Paris with Julian to visit the regular record fair. Though the pickings were on the slim side with a distinct lack of juicy collectables we did dig deep and unearth a few gems including a Malaysian original Rolling Stones Goats Head Soup LP with a fantastic unique picture sleeve, a Bridges To Babylon limited edition box set plus a couple of rare German Agnetha 7" for all you ABBA fans.


Being a French fair there is the usual glut of Mylene Farmer items including the legendary Live At Bercy 'Spider', only the second one we've ever seen! Plus various rare promo bits and bobs such as the Anamorphosee box set and Libertine 12". Please be patient though as it will take a few days to get everthing added to the website, so keep checking back.
 



On the food front I feel like I've eaten by own bodyweight in Jambon Baguettes and Bolognaise flavour crisps - viva la difference!

French fancies in sunny Brighton...
A quantity of French-only promo CD titles have been sourced whilst on a day out at the seaside. Despite being October, the sun was shining, scantily clad women were strolling along the prom and i was buying some great stock including a rare Smiths CD 'Handsome Devils' and one from Morrissey titled 'Family Line'.
 

An ice-cream walking along the beach, a kiss-me-quick hat then driving home past The Withdean Stadium listening to BHA FC getting stuffed by Blackpool on the radio. What a wonderful day...
