ELVIS PRESLEY PERSONAL AND LAST BEDSIDE BIBLE. A stunning item here with great provenance.

Lot 308

SEX PISTOLS FREE TRADE HALL MANCHESTER TICKET. Incredibly rare ticket stub for their fabled performance at Manchester's Free Trade Hall on the 4th June 1976. Reportedly only 42 people attended which included the elite of Manchester's future music scene (Joy Division, Morrissey, Buzzcocks, Tony Wilson, Mick Hucknall). The tickets for the gig were printed on the back of a ''NOISE'' flyer (designed by Jon Maunder) with an example of the front and back of a complete ticket on display at https://www.joydiv.org/scrapbook.htm. This is the right hand side of the ticket that would have been torn off on entry. The stub is ink stamped with ''F.T.H.'' and the date payment was made (29 May 1976) - it also has the gig and price paid handwritten - in this case ''Sex Pistols 50p."

Omega Auctions

Lot 314

PRIMAL SCREAM RARE VHS - LIVE FROM EDINBURGH 1985. A super piece of history here, consigned by Joogs himself (Martin St. John AKA John Martin.) The item in question is a possibly unique VHS tape featuring footage shot by renowned artist Jim Lambie at gigs circa 1980s, interspersed with footage from 60s/70s/80s. Of most interest here surely are the recordings made at Edinburgh's Hoochie Koochie club, of Primal Scream (I Love You, I Want You, Aftermath, Imperial, Tomorrow Ends Today, Crystal Crescent), Jasmine Minks, Weather Prophets, The Shop Assistants and others as well as crowd footage from Glasgow's Splash club. We say it's likely unique as detailed in a handwritten letter of provenance (sold with the lot, from John Martin) is news that artist Jim Lambie has lost all other recordings.
