Please, allow me to introduce myself quoting another old rock cliché: maybe I am too young on ebay but too old into this triptych of buy, sell and trade records as I’ve not only been a dedicated follower of collecting but a co-owner of second hand record shops, an A&R executive at record companies, a chief editor in music magazines, a radio dj etc for the last 30 years in Greece! So, a hell of a lot of rare and collectable items such as out-of-print original records, first pressings, special editions, promo samples, white labels, test pressings, magazines, posters, catalogues, memorabilia and other fetish objects of desire in 5, 7, 10 and 12 inches not only from Greece but from all over the world are going to be exhibited through these pages … Turn on and stay tuned!

So, up for auction is a rare PROMO copy of the original US vinyl pressing of David Bowie/Trevor Jones collaboration soundtrack for Jim Henson’s film Labyrinth made by EMI America in 1986 with Cat No SV-17206 and Matrix Nos 1-1 Δ12963 SV-1-17206-Z1-DMM B-23982-Z1 Sterling Sound [A Side]  and SV-2-17206-Z1-DMM B-23983-Z1 Δ12963-X Sterling Sound [B Side]. The record was housed in a special color inner sleeve with printed credits and photos containing the following tracks:

A side: Opening Titles Including Underground/Into The Labyrinth/Magic Dance/Sarah/Chilly Down/Hallucination

B side: As The World Falls Down/The Goblin Battle/Within You/Thirteen O'clock/Home At Last/Underground

With a very rare GOLD PROMO STAMP stating For Promotional Uses Only and, between other things, the serial No L 200528 on the upper right corner of the front cover plus a capital A pressed near the hole centers of both side labels and unavailable for thirty years, this must have item for every devoted fan of David Bowie does not get offered up too often. So, do not miss …
