Track Record U.K. Sampler LP’s

5-8-12             Track Record U.K. sampler LP’s

Blues suprimo Robert Johnson born 1911, jazz pianist Keith Jarrett born 1945; I own music by both.

Always been fascinated with Track Record UK.  I mean, it was the label of The Who and Jimi Hendrix; Arthur Brown, Thunderclap Newman etc.  Towards the end of the 60’s, they started issuing sampler LP’s, which are detailed below.
