MAYALL'S JOHN BLUESBREAKERS-CHICAGO LINE-1988-FIRST PRESS UK/EU GERMANY-ENTENTE-5727008-2 A very rare original of British blues monsters. John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers were an English blues rock band led by singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist John Mayall, The Bluesbreakers' greatest legacy is an incubator for British rock and blues musicians.

Chicago line is an album released after a ten-year hiatus, but created with the same blues energy as 30 years ago. Highly appreciated by critics and collectors.

MC5-HIGH TIME-1971-THE FIRST USA-ATLANTIC-SD8285 PRESS. Presswell Pressing. A very rare original of the iconic album. High Time is the second studio album by American rock band MC5, released in 1971 by Atlantic Records. Unfortunately, the 1971 album High Time was the last for MC5. Heavy drugs entered the lives of the band members, and within a year they broke up, moving to other groups. At least two of the participants ended up in federal prison on drug trafficking charges, and they were never reunited until Rob Tyner's untimely death in mid-summer 1992.Although the band's debut album Kick Out the Jams peaked at number 30 on the Billboard 200 chart, their second album stalled at number 137, and High Time proved to be even less commercially successful. ...more

GROUNDHOGS-WHO WILL SAVE THE WORLD?-1972-FIRST PRESS UK-UA-UAG29237. Matrix A-1U/B-1U is a very rare British original of the cult prog blues band. WHO WILL SAVE THE WORLD?-A 1972 album recorded by The Groundhogs, originally released by United Artists Records in 1972, The cover is in the form of a comic book featuring groundhogs depicted by superheroes, drawn by comic book artist Neil Adams. In the story, they are fighting the personified evils of overpopulation, environmental pollution, war, "Pig Business" and "Sacred Cow" (religion), as well as a drug-addicted Monkey. Each of the band members is fighting their own evil, which has been hindering them from the very beginning, only for them to stand out and wreak havoc in another part of the globe. The lyrics of each song touch on these themes, and despite the comic nature of the cover, the lyrics are quite serious because they are politically and socially motivated.This was the first Groundhogs album to go beyond guitar/bass/percussion instruments, with McPhee using keyboards (mellotron and harmonium) on a number of tracks. ...more
