Description
I found this 5LP vinyl set in a cupboard during a recent turn out. It's been in storage for about 30 years perhaps even longer. I saw Bruce on his River Tour at Wembley and Brighton about 1981 and was quite a music fan back then. I must have bought it around that time, probably at a record fair but can't remember where or when. it's never been played and was still in the plastic sleeve it came in. The bottom right hand corner says Quik-Q Records,156 Broadway, New York, NY 10115. I've had it on ebay now for about 3 days and decided to take it out of its polythene wrapper to check the contents and answer queries about coloured vinyl. The vinyl of all the LP's is black. The whole thing looked a bit musty and slightly grubby with the original polythene cover on. These problems were due to the polythene itself and the box and cover underneath are in good order as show in the additional photographs. I haven't had a record player for over 20 years so I can't play it to check it out with a listen. No idea of the quality but there is probably a collector out there that knows all about it. I don't know what it's worth as I can't see another one on eBay for comparison so I've now got it at £40 and will see what happens. If it doesn't sell I can always try again for less. I had to put down either new or used for condition. It's never been played so I put down new even though it's over 30 years old.
