| D.A.D. – Riskin' it All
|
(Medley MDLP-6415 Hol-91 VG+ 375:-)
D-A-D began playing together in the early 1980s in Copenhagen, Denmark, under their original band name Disneyland After Dark and has now been together for more than thirty years!
"Riskin' It All" is the 4th full-length studio album by D-A-D. The music style on the album pretty much continue the heavy rock/ hard rock style the band started playing on the preceeding album "No Fuel Left for the Pilgrims (1989)" albeit with a bit more commercial sensibility.

(Stiff Dam-1 Hol-84 VG+ 375:-)
In 1976, the Damned released the first UK Punk single, their still-classic "New Rose," which set the pace for their highly volatile, stomping, three-chord sound. Their early songs were rooted in catchy, fist-raising Pub Rock, a sound they quickly developed into songs that were edgy, loud and sneering, while at the same time still wrapped in stupid fun.

(Stiff SEEZ-1 UK-77 EX 800:-)
Released in early 1977, this was one of the first punk albums issued and it remains a certified punk classic which sounds as fresh and vital today as it did in 1977. The album blasts off with the searing "Neat Neat Neat," a raging slab of buzzsaw guitars, crashing drums, and the sneering vocals of Dave Vanian that ranks among the 20 best punk songs of the era.
Rare original UK pressing, housed in a fully laminated picture sleeve with Island logo on the reverse. An all-time classic punkrock record!

| DumDum Boys - Splitter Pine
|
(CBS 463450-1 Hol-89 VG+ 275:-)
One of Norway's most popular rock bands, DumDum Boys emerged in the wake of short-lived, but legendary punk band Wannskrækk.
Their debut album "Blodig Alvor (Na Na Na Na Na)", with its mixture of basic rock'n'roll and Kjartan Kristiansen's well-written Norwegian lyrics, became an instant hit, and follow-up "Splitter Pine" is their biggest-selling record, the title track being their most well-known song.

| Dunbar, Aynsley - Dr Dunbars Prescription
|
(Sonet SLP-73 Swe-69 VG+ 275:-)
The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation's second album was much the same as their first, offering competent late-'60s British blues, given a slightly darker cast than was usual for the style via Victor Brox's somber vocals. Like their debut, it was dominated by original material, and as on its predecessor, the best of these tracks were the ones that utilized Brox's gloomy, almost gothic organ, if only because it made them stand out more among the company of the many similar bands recording in the prime of the British blues boom.
Original Swedish Vinyl; the sleeve has some minor marks and loss of lamination.

| Dunbar, Aynsley - Retaliation
|
(Liberty LBS-83154E UK-68 VG 500:-)
Of the numerous British blues-rock bands to spring up in the late '60s, the Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation was one of the better known, though solid reception on tours did not translate into heavy record sales. Musically, the group recalled John Mayall's Bluesbreakers during the 1966-1967 era that had produced the "A Hard Road" album, though with a somewhat more downbeat tone.
This first album from the group would prove the most successful of the four issued under the Retaliation banner.
Original UK pressing. The vinyl has some marks, but plays VG; the sleeve is graded VG+.

| Dylan, Bob - More Greatest Hits
|
(CBS S-67239 UK-71 VG+ 275:-)
Bob Dylan is on the short list of the most influential artists of the 20th Century. He coupled a love for all forms of American popular and folk music with a personal and poetic songwriting style, proving that you didn't have to be a technically perfect singer or musician to make brilliant pop music.

| Dylan, Bob - Times they are a-Changin'
|
(CBS SBPG-62251 UK-65 VG+ 275:-)
Bob Dylan is on the short list of the most influential artists of the 20th Century. He coupled a love for all forms of American popular and folk music with a personal and poetic songwriting style, proving that you didn't have to be a technically perfect singer or musician to make brilliant pop music.
Some of the darkest acoustic work that Bob Dylan ever recorded – a record of spare, stark beauty that really has the young singer knocking it out of the park! There's a brilliance to this record with mostly just the man and his guitar, but spinning out stories and messages with his understated genius – really setting himself apart from some of the overdone, over-hyped energy of the other rising folk singers of the time – and with politics that are still completely resonant after all of these years.
1965 UK 2nd STEREO pressing. Sticker on front of sleeve.
