THE ROLLING STONES The Rolling Stones AKA No.1 UK 1964 original Mono LP

Welcome to my vinyl auctions.

Over the coming months I will be listing a remarkable record collection for auction on ebay. This collection belonged to my friend Brian, one of the most discerning record collectors I have ever known. Brian started buying records in 1966 when he was a teenager. His infatuation for vinyl developed into a career and he eventually ended up working for RCA records and CBS/Sony records as a disc mastering engineer from 1977 to 1989. Brian’s not with us anymore, and I’m making good on my promise to him to sell his records in lovingly-prepared auctions which reflect the love he had for his vast LP collection. The proceeds are going to his family.

Brian’s collection is the kind that rarely comes up for sale. He had great taste in music and collected vinyl seriously for 40 years, taking superb care of his collection. To see all of Brian’s records that I currently have listed, click here.

I grade records conservatively, to ensure your satisfaction as the buyer. All LP’s will be shipped promptly in reinforced record-mailing boxes. Because of the size of this collection, I will be listing these records in sections, so you might want to bookmark my listings page and keep checking back. Also, if you want to be notified when a new block of records is listed, drop me a line with your email address.

It’s a while since I’ve listed any LPs on ebay, but for a sample of the excellent feedback I received last time I did, please follow this link.

This month I’m listing the last of Brian’s ROLLING STONES records.

Further Notes: The LP that started it all for The Rolling Stones!

This is the second edition of the record without the Mona titling error and it contains the 4:06 “Tell Me”.

This record plays in fantastic shape and on side one is the earliest stamper and plays crisp and powerful – nice tube cut master tape sound. The vinyl has a bunch of light marks but plays beautifully with a minimum of surface noise. This is a lovely LP which is fast approaching it’s 50th birthday!

This LP would be issued in the United States as “England’s Newest Hitmakers” with some changes in track selection.

All great Stones collections begin with this LP…it has been reissued in current box and although it sounds good, it lacks the true analogue attack that the original gives. Tube cuts are amazing for early Stones records.

All records are cleaned on a VPI 16.5 and are ready to play – records are never playgraded until they are cleaned properly – that way an accurate grading can occur. All records are placed in new Nitty Gritty sleeves and if there is an original sleeve present it is contained in the package for completeness.
