Fantastic Australian talent - songwriter, actor, and vocalist. Sadly missed after his untimely passing in 2016 in the prime of his creative career in the music and performing arts world.
JON ENGLISH - Carmilla
Mercury Records
Cat# 6037 958
1980
Australian release
SIGNED by Jon on the front cover, which is in very good condition
Autograph (blue felt pen) by Jon reads:
To Glynne
with Love
& Admiration
Jon English
So this is not just another signed piece of memorabilia from Jon but a true autograph with a message to someone he knows.
Who is Glynne? We know, but are not going to tell you. That's part of the challenge when you have a gem like this, like holding a part of Jon's life and an insight into his thoughts about those he came into contact with.
HINT: Jon was born in UK and grew up there until his early teens, some other very well known people in the music and performing arts sphere had a similar life experience...it's all in the Glynne and Jon expressing his admiration of Glynne.
This autograph has always been well protected and kept under a plastic cover.
It is not easy to see being blue pen on a dark background but it is not faded or partial in any way.
Quite difficult for an amateur photographer like me to get a good photograph of, sorry about that.
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in excellent condition - inspected visually, I can see no scratches on each side, but the only real way to tell is to play the entire record. I have played both sides - no significant surface noise issues at all
Tracks: Carmilla, Survivor
One of a kind Jon English memorabilia
