Hello traveller and thanks for looking.
You are looking at an item from my own Fish and Marillion collection which due to downsizing, kids, (bloody) austerity and other tedious factors I am redistributing to good homes.
Please check out my other auctions for lots more Marillion and Fish stuff. If you want to bid on more than one lot then I'm super-happy to combine postage on stuff.
All of the vinyl that I'm selling is unplayed as, when I was in the throws of my Marillion collecting, I was also buying the tapes and CDs and I played those rather than the vinyl.
This is the picture disc version of the wonderful "Clutching at Straws" album which, as I'm sure you know, is a wonderful album.
However, it does have the most ludicrous and pompous album art.
I mean, really, who on Earth thought it was sensible to put Jack Kerouac, Rabbie Burns, Lennie Bruce, John Lennon etcetera on an album cover?
(I think we all know the answer to this by the way, and he's quite a big Scotsman.)
I remember having a chat with Fish after a gig once and, as usual, he was banging on about how unfair life and the recording industry are.
He told me that "Clutching" didn't sell very well as having a very dark album cover never works.
I didn't mention "Dark Side of the Moon" just in case he battered me...
Fun times.
Starting this and all the other items at super-low starting prices as everything needs to go (sob).
Bid in confidence from a seller with 100% positive feedback.
All records will be despatched in new super-tough cardboard vinyl mailers so they arrive at their new homes all safe and sound.
Any questions just ask, thanks for looking and, if you fancy bidding, I hope you win.
You deserve it...
