BRIDGET ST JOHN "ASK ME NO QUESTIONS"
PRODUCED BY JOHN PEEL
Features... JOHN MARTYN ON GUITAR
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY – IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE YOU SEE ONE OF THESE AGAIN IN THIS CONDITION.
This was one of many records owned and cherished by my late father, I have commenced the sale of his masterpiece collection. He attended UCL London from 1968-1974 and was an able gifted man studying maths and computer science. He also ran the societies club and arranged gigs etc. He recently sung and performed acoustic guitar alongside Julie Felix of folk acclaim before sadly passing too soon. See below associated links.
The records you will see for sale over the coming months will be folk and prog rock masterpieces from the golden era. e.g. floyd, john morgan, pentangle, fairport, rolling stones, beefheart, hendrix etc etc...really an incredible selection from an avid collector spanning many decades.

My father would have bought it NEW, played it a fair few times and stored it away every time back in the sixties.early seventies….I’m quite confident to say that this is a rare opportunity to buy such a pristine copy of such a rare 40yrs+ old age item…If it doesn’t sell for the listing price now it will be put in a later auction and I know someone will eventually buy it.
My father was absolutely meticulous in his handling of records, and taught me everything I know about caring for and storing them. It is just that this style of music is not up my street, I prefer more electronic dance music etc, hence the upcoming sales of many 1965-1975 records in the coming months.
Cover: 1969 original .. the spine is a tiny bit crushed but intact with ALL the text clearly visible on it …inside is EXACTLY the same as the outside, light discolouration and fading in line with age ,however edges are nice,straight and sharp, NO real heavy signs of use at all ....no rips,tears etc . ONLY FLAW is my late fathers name written (see picture), located very bottom right corner of inner gatefold
Record: visual: superb clean EX close to NM- with few EXTREMELY LIGHT MICROSCOPIC hairlines…...it still retains it’s beautiful original sheen and it looks VERY GOOD indeed. The digital camera pictures I took only show light dust, one wipe/off static and all gone to a crisp new shine on the actual surface of the vinyl itself - exceptional quality piece beyond any shadow of a doubt, and I will tell you I am fussy! There are hairline markings under light but does not affect lovely crisp audio, i have even play tested many key tracks myself!
labels: AS CLEAN AS THEY COULD BE with few EXTREMELY LIGHT and SMALL spindle hole marks. ONLY FLAWS are my late fathers name as pcitured, black biro **does not obscure imagery or writing**
