THE HISTORY OF ROCK 
The History Of Rock (1982 UK complete set of all FORTY volumes of the Orbis Publishing History Of Rock 
With each [mostly] double LP volume featuring a collection of classic recordings by the original artists 
from Elvis through The Beatles Rock Glam Punk & The Sex Pistols to Elvis Costello. 
Each volume has a similar style gatefold sleeve with extensive notes inside. The Beatles volume is of particular interest as the second disc contains the Hollywood Bowl recordings from 1964-65. 
Some of the sleeves do show some light discolouration and the odd seam split caused during storage whilst the vinyl discs themselves appear seldom played. 

An excellent set at a fraction of the price that you would pay to purchase them individually! HRL001-040)
