I’m so sad to have to start this auction as I hoped to hold onto this forever, but I am selling my copy of Iron Maiden’s Soundhouse Tapes.
I’ve had the record for 15 years and it has been my utter pride and joy. However life has taken an unexpected turn recently in that one of my best and dearest friends has been involved in a helicopter crash in the USA (if you’re reading this you’ve probably read about it in the news) and my friends and I are trying to raise funds for his parents to help in any way we can.
The record is 100% original from 1979 and meets all of the 40 point authenticity check. It doesn’t come with the small white paper insert however as presumably that has been lost over the past 39 years. All run off marks are present and correct including the very faint LYN 7628-IT/LYN 7627-IT and I’m sorry that I can’t really show these up on photographs. *EG* and SA and ROK-1A/ROK-1B are much easier to see. If you require more detailed photos let me know and I’ll do all I can to accommodate!
Condition I’d have to describe as Very Good for its age, given that it’s so old the cardboard sleeve has some slight wear but the record is free from any marks/scuffs.
I’ll meet the postage cost but you can guarantee that it will be posted with a lot of care and packed very well and sent special next day delivery. Alternatively collection from Honiton in Devon can be arranged.
Thank you for looking, 100% of proceeds go to my friend’s family. Up the Irons! Good luck!
