After months of ‘will it be in this issue?’, I’m finally in the Christmas issue of Record Collector magazine (with Led Zeppelin on the cover), in ‘The Collector’ article and it was worth the wait. For the first time I can remember they’ve gone from the usual two pages to three to accommodate the ‘Wall of Sound’ photograph Steve Cook took specially (full image above).
I’m so pleased with this and I get a chance to show off some prize pieces from my collection. Several items mentioned aren’t shown because of space but I’ll be posting some of them in the ‘Originals’ posts on this site all week.
Very impressive colelction and excellent photo.
You should be part of my photo project about vinyl collectors http://www.dustandgrooves.com
As the founder and the photographer of this website, it would be an honor to come visit you and profile your collection.
all the best,
Eilon
yesssssss pleeeeeeeease!!!!!!!!!!!
ah, damn, that’s the issue before, I assumed the Xmas issue would be December – kind of figures doesn’t it? That’ll be the 13th month in publishing maybe – sorry about that, I can send you a pdf of the article if you want?
it`s the “rarest album sleeves” cover, december 2011, Led Zeppelin seems to be christmas edition. Bought it on ebay, cause no other way to get it over here in my part of Austria.
Really? Does it have Led Zeppelin on the cover?
If it’s the guy with the Elvis records it’s the issue before, what abouts are you in the world Robert?
just bought Record Collector magazine, december issue, just for that article, but did not found those pages!!!
Great to see As The Crow Flies LP in pride of place at the top of TWOS (The Wall Of Sound)!!
I didn’t see any i’m afraid Ivan – there are some photos from when I went here though http://www.djfood.org/one-november-monday
Wow! Nice surprise to see you in Record Collector again. You have an impressive collection. Interesting article, nice photos, would have loved to have seen in the vaults of ZTT and had a nosey. Any more mixes of Das Psycho Rangers’ – The Essential Art Of Communication?
That is a great photograph…amazing vinyl collection, nice to see Chill Out by your feet (a cheeky nod to that KLF mix you did a while back perhaps?). Also good to see a bit of subtle self-promotion with your Moog design t-shirt…just ordered one, hopefully in time for Christmas!
All I can say is you must have *very* long arms, or a trained monkey or something. Seriously though – that’s a great pic…
