What signed records do you have?

Chuck has a touring band? I thought his hobby was torturing local pickup bands.

 

It probably was a local pick up band. I've never heard of any of the names!

 

LPs

NM DCC "The Doors" -- Robby Krieger (sold this to a fellow SHForumite)
Rhino "Strange Days" -- Robby Krieger (signed directly to me)
UK "My Aim is True" -- Elvis Costello (signed directly to me)
Dan Hicks (I can't remember the title at the moment) (signed directly to me)
"Crimes of Passion" -- Pat Benatar (signed directly to me)
NM Elvis Presley Promo LP (I can't remember the title at the moment) -- Mike Stoller
One of those Beatles in Hamburg LPs (I can't remember which one at the moment) -- Tony Sheridan

(Purchased on eBay, unauthenticated) "Aqualung" -- Ian Anderson & Martin Barre


CDs

“Little Honey” Gatefold Digipak -- Lucinda Williams
"Just a Little Lovin’" Gatefold Digipak -- Shelby Lynne
(Promo CD) -- Dana Glover (Gorgeous and sweet ex-model... recorded some stuff with Robbie Robertson... her solo career never took off) (signed directly to me)


T-Shirts

Two or three official T-shirts from different Cowboy Junkies tours -- Margo Timmons (signed directly to me)



And my Holy Grail:

NM DCC "Aqualung" LP -- Ian Anderson (signed directly to me)

.

 

No signed records ( yet ) but have several CD's.

Matthew Sweet - Girlfriend
The Sundays - Blind
Lloyd Cole - Music in a Foreign Language
The Thorns ( Matthew Sweet, Pete Drodge and Shawn Mullins )

There may be a couple more in my collection, but they don't come to mind.

 

Next time I get back in the storage, I'll dig out the autographed setlists I got from Brian Wilson and Bruce Johnston (at separate gigs from the mid-00s). Both require more than one page. The Brian Wilson one is a Smile setlist, too. The sound engineer was kind enough to give it to me at the end of a show.

Alas I don't have any fun stories associated with my autographs (but have somehow amassed a pretty good collection). Unlike my pal who saw Jimmy Page at a local record fair (they live in the same town), and bought a copy of Physical Graffitti there and then, which JP signed for him on the spot.

 

Dexter Gordon - Our Man In Paris
Miles Davis - Miles Ahead (signed by Gil Evans, not 'The Prince Of Darkness')
Elvin Jones - John C. ( Japanese mini l.p. )
Kenny Wheeler - an Italian l.p. with a dreadful female vocalist, name escapes me.

 

Vanessa Carlton - Liberman

 

The one above is my pride and joy. Signed by all four members of Queen, I designed the poster and mounting etc that goes with it. The whole piece ended up much bigger than I thought it would! It stands about 4ft 5" tall or 120cm. I also have a copy of Queen II signed on the inside by Brian, Freddie and Roger.

I have quite a number of records signed as I used to enjoy meeting the bands that I saw live. I would usually get concert programmes signed as well. Here's what I can remember off the top of my head apart from those mentioned above. All of them are signed by the entire band unless mentioned otherwise.

ABBA - Arrival
Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road [yellow vinyl edition]
U2 - Rattle & Hum
Dire Straits - Making Movies
Dire Straits - Love Over Gold
Dire Straits - Twisting By The Pool EP
Pretenders - Pretenders
Pretenders - Pretenders II
Police - Zenyatta Mondatta
Fleetwood Mac - Tusk
Kiss - Destroyer [with Eric Carr instead of Peter Criss]
Billy Joel - Glass Houses
Kinks - Give The People What They Want
Boz Scaggs - Silk Degrees
Eurythmics - Touch [just Annie Lennox]
Eurythmics - Be Yourself Tonight
Joan Armatrading - Walk Under Ladders
Rod Stewart - Tonight Im Yours

There are more, but I cant think of them all right now

 

Mine is signed by Marilyn and Ginger. Diane doesn't appear to be part of the group any more.

 

One LP only:

Sticky Fingers - signed by Keith Richards

 

Not so much (CDs only) but still:
Megadeth - Th1rt3en (Dave Mustaine, David Ellefson, Chris Broderick, Shawn Drover), Super Collider (same line-up), Public Enemy No.1 Single (Dave)
Street Sweeper Social Club - The Ghetto Blaster EP (Tom Morello, Boots Riley)
Royal Blood - s/t (Mike Kerr, Ben Thatcher)
F4Band DVD (signed by famous Russian rock musician and bayan player Fyodor Chistyakov)

 

SSSC must've been a cool one. Did you meet them?

 

D.M.C. signed my copy of Raising Hell!

 

I have a signed vinyl The River and the Thread by Rosanne Cash.

 

What can I say? That Queen display and signed LP are awesome! Good work.

 

No since they didn't tour Russia haha)
They held a website ssschasawebstore.com where you could pre-order their upcoming EP in different options - I choose a t-shirt and signed CD pack, so that was it for me.

P.S. Tom Morello is the reason I started to play guitar so that was huge for me to get his autograph (he was in Russia only in 1996 with 2 RATM shows and I was far from being a rock fan at my 4 year old age). He also replied to my question in Nightwatchman Speaks haha)

 

Elton John - Empty Sky
Blur - Parklife (by Damon Albarn)
Shades Of Deep Purple (by Nick Simper)
David Gilmour - Rattle That Lock

Just picked up a cool find on ebay: A signed Art Pepper album.

 

My first attempt adding a picture...

 

I acquired The Nightfly by Donald Fagen from a local music hermit (don't ask) a month ago and noticed the cover had some writing on it. I started to rub out the grease chalk before I realized it must have been signed by Fagen: "To_____, Best wishes, thanks for all the cool licks, Don". Let's just say I stopped there and put the record in a protective sleeve...

 

Jimi Hendrix - "Smash Hits".



Nah, I'm just kidding. Sure would be nice though. I already have the record. Now all I need is the signature.

 

Finally took a pic, figured I'd add along with previous post:

 

The clear vinyl signed edition of 'Here', the new Teenage Fanclub album.
