Autographed Albums

An autographed copy of time out signed by all four members of the quartet

I recently picked up a CD signed on the inside front cover by Van Cliburn.

One autograph I would like to have is that of eccentric pianist Glenn Gould. I love eccentricity. 

I have autographed cd's from Tommy Emmanuel, The Dixie Dregs, and Todd Rundgren. I also have a very well healed neighbor who collects this sort of thing. His basement looks like a Hard Rock Cafe with autographed guitars hanging on all of the walls. He has autographed albums from Elvis, the Stones, Springsteen, U2, and others. The coolest (and most valuable) is the original handwritten lyrics to "Hey Jude". The story goes that both John and Paul had horrendous handwriting and asked one of the roadies to write out the lyrics. Where it gets interesting is when John and Paul wrote notes in the margin like "tambourine"  just before the Na Na Na Hey Jude chorus. My friend said that he bought the lyrics from a Sotheby's auction and that the only reason it was available was because the roadie and the Beatles usually kept a pretty close watch on that sort of thing. I would question it if he didn't have all of the other memorabilia in his collection.
