Vampires stole my lunch money

Everyday i try to put new Grateful Dead items for sale on this site. One of the items added today is a beautiful posterbook with a decade of psychedelic posters. The name of the writer is Mick Farren. Once I did a ‘Sleeveface’ photo with a record cover of him. So a little search on my music blog and voila: here’s the photo:

A second blog message about ‘Sleevefaces’ had also pictures my family made. Can you guess the albums ? > > > > >

Grading

COLLECTION

Every item for sale here is an item from my own collection. I have been collecting records for over 40 years now. My ‘regular’ collection is for sale on the Discogs site since October 28, 2012 where my seller’s grading is still 100% 😊
My ‘core’ collection is for sale here, on these pages. That means there only one of each item in stock. Minimum order value is € 8,00. If you buy more items at once a discount is possible. Please, no dealers!

GRADING

I try to grade my items conservative. Every record is listened to and the discs and covers are visually graded too. The photo’s placed by the items are of the actual objects. Sometimes, for example when a record is still in a factory seal, i place a stock photo of the labels. On demand i can mail a short audio-clip or more photo’s of the record/item you are interested in. Since I have a regular job it may take a little time…

SHIPPING

Products are shipped with PostNL. That’s the dutch postal company. Shipping costs and risks are for the buyer. I usually ship with standard mail, no Track n Trace. But there are a few exceptions. Please contact me if you prefer shipment with Track n Trace. The shipping costs are based upon the actual PostNL tarifs.

Questions ? Feel free to mail me at collector@schothans.com

Music is Love

The first Grateful Dead items are posted! With a little bit pain in the heart but maybe some other ‘dead-head’ can find items they have long sought for… And remember, the items for sale here are from my own collection so there is only one item per article.

It’s now time for the Grateful Dead related 7″ vinyl singles. One of the albums I loved from the beginning was David Crosby’s first solo album. If I only could remember my name. Despite bad critics and reviews at the time of the album release it is now considered a masterpiece. Music is Love is one of the items now for sale.

This copy of ‘Music is Love’ was released as a single in the Netherlands and features many Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane members. See also the item in my shop for the details and the Music Blog message on ‘Blowing against the Empire‘.
