Vintage Canadian pressing of the landmark compilation "History of Eric Clapton". Released as a deluxe double LP set in 1972, this record serves as perhaps the first definitive retrospective in rock history, mapping his rapid evolution through several of the most influential rock bands of the 1960s and early 1970s. Cover: captures Clapton performing live on stage at George Harrison's famous Concert for Bangladesh at Madison Square Garden in August 1971. Guitar enthusiasts highly value this cover because it captures Clapton playing a Gibson Byrdland hollow-body guitar, a rare instrument choice for him compared to his signature Fender Strats or Gibson Les Pauls. Comilation serves as a premier historical archive spanning his most famous eras: The Yardbirds to John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers to Cream to Blind Faith to Delaney & Bonnie and solo transition to Derek and the Dominos. Auction Note: All lots are from a single estate collection. This is an opportunity to purchase a carefully curated decades-spanning collection from a single collector. The majority of the vinyl is in near mint condition with many appearing unplayed - if there are flaws of note we did our best to photograph that specifically. If you would like any further information please use the question portion available on each lot. Shipping is available - if you win the lot please email [email protected] to arrange.
