Any item I list here on eBay is a genuine item. I value my reputation as a credible music writer, and the items I am selling are all things I have collected over the years but am now selling this archive to fund two new book projects. I started writing in 1976 with one of the first Punk fanzines, Panache. I then went on to work for music papers – Record Mirror, NME and Melody Maker - for 15 years, as well as editing two national titles, ZigZag and Siren. I have had four books published on Goth and there are more in the pipeline. I write regularly on my own website where I review records most days of the week, I contribute to Starvox, one of the world’s best known online zines, and I also do a free monthly pdf magazine on my website. I pride myself on providing a good service to anyone who buys from me. Anything you get from me is a legitimate item I am free to sell, as received by me from the bands/artist(s) in question and is obviously not a copy I have generated myself. I have, and therefore also understand, the collector mentality myself, and I would never deal in counterfeit rubbish!

 

In the case of this item I got it when Eddie sent it to me for cinsideration in my fanzine Panache, after I had originally seen and interviewed the earlier band he was in, The Visitors. I interviewed Eddie many times and photographed him and the band. Any serious collector will recognise Eddie's handwriting.
