Rare, Rarest and Most Expensive VU items
Re: Rare, Rarest and Most Expensive VU items
?????? I think this boots rather interesting, never understood the front cover image - until a while later and it suddenly clicked - duh! The back cover image of the cat is a complete waste of the lovely screen printed cover it wasn't like there weren't any images of the VU they had just performed a European tour! Still its a rather charming production and yes only turns up on Ebay very infrequently. Since the late 90s maybe under 5 copies...
Re: Rare, Rarest and Most Expensive VU items
For me this is quite a funny comment. I've collected Lp's with cats on it for almost 15 years. It was a strange obsession and it took a long time to ged rid of it...bleach wrote:??????

THAT is a travesty... the original is one of the greatest lp covers of all time!

Never seen this German Verve comp before. Somewhat unique sleeve. Currently ?5 on eBay with 2 days to go.

any sounds that we feel would detract from the performance has been left in place

What a great zany cover its up there with the 2 spacemen outside Woolworths effort - check out that Franz Scholer what a dude! Looks like he should be presenting the flipping 'New Seekers' though not the VU..Verve must have been smoking some pretty strong stuff in their art department.

A modest man (with much to be modest about).

I've got this one and never read his bio; shameful!bradski wrote:Not only that - but the back sleeve is a biography of none other than Mr Franz Scholer himself!!
