WELCOME TO LILABELLE_BE CD and RECORD AUCTIONS

Dear rock record collector , before you read the discription of this record , first THE STORY ,

I just bought a huge, INCREDIBLE collection lp's ( around 1000 ) and vinylsingles ( around 2850 ) from a famous Belgian radio dj ..., he was dj from the Belgian National Radio ( BRT ) station between 1965 and 1978. In this time he collected all these "rare" vinyls,(keep in mind that this is his PRIVATE COLLECTION and NOT the radio collection !! ). When he came at home with his new stuff , he put the records on tape or his REVOX , reel to reel recorder and put all records in his huge bookcase ( record case ), they nearly never played more than once , he always listened to his tapes ... meanwhile he was also salesmanager for Polydor records Belgium. After 1978 he left his jobs and Belgium for what it was and went to work in Asia , he never bought any record after this period anymore, all lp's stayed in Belgium in boxes in a dry room for nearly 30 years !

In this collection you gonna see nearly all first pressings in MINT or NEARMINT condition, we talk about Progressive, Psychedelic, Folkrock, Beat, Freakbeat, Mod, Folk, Jazz, Blues, Classic and Countryrock ... It's a STUNNING AWESOME collection !!! Everytime i gonna try to keep the discription brief, and to the point and no 2 hours reading or psychological ploy to induce you into a state of mind numbness, the discription is what you get !! I am not go to give a list from what's inside because this is too much work , i just gonna put every day and week new ones on auction.

One last thing , i guarantee all the conditions in my listings and offer a refund to any buyer who is not satisfied with my gradings , i've bought enough rubbish in the past that was over graded beyond believe ( as i'm sure you all have ), so i'm very aware of the need to grade correctly , i hope the foto's below do this records justice, as it truly is !!!

- John Sebastian -

" Welcome Back "

ALBUM INFORMATION

John Sebastian's relationship with Reprise records cooled after the commercial failure of his 1974 album Tarzana Kid, but he still owed one more record on his contract when his theme song for the television series Welcome Back, Kotter became a surprise hit in the spring of 1976. Reprise, naturally, called for an immediate LP tie-in, and Sebastian obliged. But he didn't really have an album's worth of top-flight tunes ready, and the result was an uneven collection filled out with a near-instrumental ("Let This Be Our Time to Get Along"), a folk-blues song he'd written in the early '60s ("Warm Baby"), and a remake of one of his old Lovin' Spoonful songs ("Didn't Wanna Have to Do It"). The new material tended to be craftsman-like pop songs, the melodies simple and catchy, the lyrics light verse ("You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine," "One Step Forward, Two Steps Back," "I Needed Her Most When I Told Her to Go"). Employing the soon-to-be Toto rhythm section of David Hungate and Jeff Porcaro, Sebastian had a solid backing when he ventured into island syncopation on "One Step Forward, Two Steps Back," and Jeff Baxter gave him some convincing pedal steel playing on "A Song a Day in Nashville," the only song that really cut deeply, painting a portrait of a struggling songwriter on the rebound who easily could have been Sebastian himself. Then, of course, there was "Welcome Back," a pleasant-enough tune whose endless repetitions of its title betrayed its origin as a brief TV theme song. It was the biggest hit of Sebastian's career, but unfortunately, with his contract up, Reprise had little reason to work to sustain his comeback, and, amazingly, he quickly went from being a man with a number one record to a man without a record label !
