Description

There is a small and rather insignificant split at the top of the sleeve, though the disc looks almost unplayed. Such incredible graphics on the sleeve from cartoonist Robert Crumb. All the records I am selling belonged to Tony Hall, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 91. They were acquired directly from Tony’s executors and are exclusively sold here with their blessing. Tony Hall was a titan of the of the British music industry. As a producer, he oversaw some of the most celebrated British jazz recordings of the 1950s. As a promoter, he discovered many artists, not least Black Sabbath. As a DJ for Radio Luxembourg in the late 1950s and early 1960s, he influenced the tastes of countless people around Europe, not least the Beatles and the Stones as they grew up. As a promo man, he broke countless hits, such as Procol Harum’s A Whiter Shade of Pale. His extraordinarily wide-ranging record collection will be exclusively on sale through elvinyl, and features his personal copies of many important records whose genesis he was involved in. I will be adding more and more of Tony’s records over the coming weeks so please keep checking back to see what has been added. I will consider offers on all the records I list, so please contact me with an offer and if I accept, I will adjust the price for you. Many thanks! TonyHallRecords
