Description
Ian Dury and the Blockheads album 'Do It Yourself' from 1979 on Stiff Records SEEZ 14 and it is HAND SIGNED on the front cover by Dury himself. He has simply signed it "John's copy of - Ian x " - please see the images.
He signed it (and other albums - I also have my own copy of 'New Boots and Panties' signed) while being interviewed for radio by my late brother (see below).
The cover I would rate as very good condition with no marks for folds, with only some very slight fading due to age.
The printed inner sleeve is in very good condition.
The vinyl I would rate as good (poss very good) and I can't see any visible marks or scratches.
Please note that I am not a dealer or a record collector. The items I am selling are all from the extensive collection of my late brother, John Shaw
He was a great music and radio enthusiast, working for both BBC and commercial radio stations in the East Midlands from 1980 until 2013, presenting various music shows, mostly folk and rock.
During this period he interviewed many bands and artists in Nottingham, Derby and Leicester and usually had them sign copies of the albums they were promoting at the time.
He produced and presented the nightly rock show 'Castle Rock' on Radio Trent and also the folk show. IT was during this time he interviewed Ian Dury, but I'm not sure of the exact date.
He was also sent many promotional, DJ-only and white-label pressings direct from the record companies.
Sadly my brother passed away in November 2013, so I am slowly disposing of his extensive record collection.
All vinyl will be sent in special secure mailers with stiffeners.
Thank you.
