We are excited to be offering original 1970s reel to reel ‘listening tapes’ from Peter Hammill‘s personal collection.
The first three are for the legendary Van Der Graaf Generator albums, “H To He” (1970), “Pawn Hearts” (1971) and “Godbluff” (1975).
Additionally, we have the production master of Van Der Graaf Generator‘s “Godbluff” (dated 21/10/75 and engineered by Porky).
Please note the boxes are dirty and mouldy and the spools also have some mould on the tape. Sold as seen, no returns.
All with come with a letter of authenticity signed by Peter Hammill.
