Not long after moving to LA in 1998, a friend offered to take me to the Orange Bowl flea market in Pasadena to look for records. On the way he asked me what I fancied looking for, to which I replied, the Runaways albums. Not only did I find “Queens of Noise”, but I also ran...

In 1983, Kiss held a signing session at the Virgin Megastore in London for the recently released Creatures of the Night record. About 6 of us hopped on the bus from Sheffield and traveled down there for a shake of the hand and an autograph. You were only allowed one signature per band member,...

I bought this 1977 poster at my first of many Reading Festivals in 1980. I’ve always loved this line-up and wish I’d been there. I remember exploring so many of the bands on it around that time. SAHB, Lizzy, Aerosmith, Frankie Miller are still among my all time faves. It was a...

This features elements of a contact sheet from a shoot of Ginger Baker at Rockwell Studios in Wales. Quite a unique piece. I love the shot of Ginger with the gong. He was never a guy to do things by halves. I picked this up at Rockaway Records in LA. It was in a bargain box for...

Signed at an instore at the Virgin Megastore, Times Square. There was a Spinal Tap moment that day when the band got stuck in the goods elevator on the way from the “green room” to the signing area. “Hello there ladies and...

The Crowes at the Fillmore. While I love the band, their shows can be extremely variable in terms of set lists and overall quality. While the poster is great, the show was decidedly...

This was a great show. His voice is still great, but at some of his shows I get the impression he’s just not into performing too much. This show was not like...

One of the most amazing experiences of my life was hopping on a plane to London in the hopes of getting into the Zep reunion event . Three of us went – none of us had tickets. I remember being so stressed about it. It felt like life or death. Twenty minutes before showtime, I still...

The magnificent Sweet. I bought this patch when I was 8 years old and out shopping with me Mum at Timothy White’s in Sunderland, UK. She kindly sewed it onto my tan corduroy bell bottoms (I had the matching cord jacket too). Needless to say I thought I was the knees of the...
