Autographed Albums

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. 

Jimmy Carl Black:  Brown, Black and Blue LP (might also be signed by Arthur Brown, I can't remember for sure)

I also have Jimmy Carl Black's autograph, along with the rest of the members of "The Grandmothers". Bought the album used many years ago. Didn't realize it was signed until I got home. 

I have a few but my crown jewel would be my English gatefold import of Gasoline Alley autographed by Rod Stewart.
