GUNS N' ROSES-G N' R LIES-1988-FIRST PRESS UK/EU-GERMANY-GEFFEN 24198. A very rare club original of a cult band. G N’ R Lies (also known as Lies) is the second studio album by Guns N’ Roses, released in 1988. According to the RIAA, it has sold over five million copies in the United States alone, becoming instantly multi-platinum. The first four tracks were previously released on the EP Live?!*@ Like a Suicide. The last four songs were recorded using acoustic guitars. They were written and recorded in just a few sessions in the studio (with the exception of "You're Crazy", which was included on the alternate version of the album Appetite for Destruction).In later interviews, Axl Rose said that he liked the way the band sounded on the last four songs, but he hated the sound of his voice. Rose recalled that his voice was hoarse and rough due to the band's long tours at that time, and if he could, he would have re-recorded his vocal parts. "You're Crazy" was released earlier on the band's debut album, Appetite for Destruction and is recorded in this album as originally intended.

QUEEN-A NIGHT AT THE OPERA-1975-THE FIRST UK PRESS-EMI - EMTC103.Matrices A-2/B. (on the second side, the matrix is Scandinavian without a digit.) A rare British original. A Night at the Opera is the fourth studio album by the rock band Queen, released on December 2, 1975. The record was a great success: its sales reached three million, and it held the top position in the UK charts for four inconsistent weeks. The title of the album — "Night at the Opera" — as well as the subsequent one, is taken from the repertoire of American comedians of the 1930s by the Marx brothers, namely from the film of the same name. At each Queen concert, several songs from A Night at the Opera were necessarily performed (while "Love of My Life" was never performed in the album version). It is generally believed that the song "Death on Two Legs" is dedicated to the former producer of the band. "Bohemian Rhapsody" brought the band a resounding success and in 2000 was recognized in Britain as the "song of the millennium". The final album, "God Save the Queen", is the British national anthem arranged by Brian May; it was this composition that invariably ended each concert of the band. The album was ranked number 230 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time in 2003, and number 128 on the 2020 list. ...more
