WATERS, ROGER-THE WALL LIVE IN BERLIN (2LP)-1990-FIRST PRESS HOLLAND-MERCURY-846613-1. A rare European original of the cult concert. The Wall: Live in Berlin is a concert performance of the legendary rock opera The Wall by Pink Floyd, organized by its main author Roger Waters and held on July 21, 1990 at Berlin's Potsdamer Platz, which has long been divided by the Berlin Wall. The concert was filmed as a TV movie, and also released in September 1990 as a live album. The concert took place in the presence of a 200,000-strong audience on July 21, 1990 at Potsdamer Platz, which was previously a no-man's land separating East and West Berlin. During the concert, a "wall" with a width of more than 160 m and a height of about 25 m was erected on the stage, which was finally destroyed to the ground. Many bright performers and actors took part in the show. ...more

LED ZEPPELIN-HOUSES OF THE HOLY-1973-THE FIRST PRESS UK-ATLANTIC- K50014 A2/B2 STERLING matrix. A very rare British original with the first matrices .Houses of the Holy is the fifth studio album by the British rock band Led Zeppelin, released on March 28, 1973 on Atlantic Records. Page described the idea of the cover as "a symbol of innocence, an expression of the idea that we are all beings who aspire to the promised heaven." Six-year-old Samantha Gates and her four-year-old brother Stefan posed. The cover photo is a collage of more than thirty pictures. The album cover did not contain any information about the artists or the title. In the USA, the headline was written on ribbons that were taped over children's buttocks. Despite this precaution, the record was banned in many states of the "Bible Belt". "They wouldn't let us do anything like that today, they would immediately accuse us of pedophilia propaganda," says Powell, "but we were hippies, walking around naked was completely commonplace for us." In 2011, the album cover was ranked 28th in the list of the best album covers of all time by the online edition of Music Radar. In the music ranking, the album immediately took 1st to 10th places in the charts of countries on all continents, becoming immediately multi-platinum.  ...more

GEORDIE-DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE NAME-1974-THE FIRST DENMARK PRESS-EMI- EMA764. Matrix A-3/B-3. A very rare Danish original hard rock style icon in top condition. Geordie's second album "Don't be fooled by the name" (1974) became both the most interesting and the most successful work of the band: Melody Maker noted their "incredible drive", and NME recognized that "Malcolm writes great songs, and Johnson brilliantly performs them." One of the most interesting numbers on the record was the hard rock version of the standard "The House of the Rising Sun" (later that year, it was released as a single and reached the Top 20). Oddly enough, this was Geordie's last hit on the popularity lists of Britain or Western Europe. Throughout 1975, the band traveled continuously around Britain and Europe, exploiting their unexpected success. The only single released in the same year, "Wizard", went unnoticed. The failure also befell the concept album Save the world, released in early 1976, their rather clumsy attempt to stake out a plot in the territory of art rock. Geordie's star set as quickly as it rose. Deciding that the bandmates were to blame for everything, Johnson left Geordie in the summer of 1976 and signed a personal contract with MCA Records. Recorded with new partners and released in the same year, the album "Brian Johnson and Geordie" included reworking of the band's old hits, but did not return success. Johnson's second and last solo album "Strange man" was released on New Year's Eve, but it was also met with little enthusiasm by listeners. Johnson returned to Newcastle, where, forgetting to think about rock, he worked as a technician at a gas station until someone from AC/DC's entourage (some unknown fan) mentioned him, trying to find a replacement for the deceased Bon Scott. In April 1980, Johnson was officially announced as the new vocalist of the band. ...more
