Priced to start very fairly, I hope, with no reserve, this is a terrific job lot of 14 vinyl LPs, almost all original first pressings, featuring guest appearances by George Harrison and Ringo Starr spanning 1970 to 1982.

As serious Beatles collectors know well, George and Ringo made a fair number of such appearances during the 1970s and early 80s and this single lot brings together many of them, including many hard-to-find pieces.

There are both UK and US pressings included.  Do note that George and Ringo are generally on one or two tracks, not the entire album.  As you would expect there are some great stories behind how these guest appearances came about, best told in Kristofer Engelhardt's excellent book "Beatles Undercover", not part of this lot but easily found online.

In detail, the lot comprises the following LPs.  Gradings are for record first , then sleeve.

Ashton, Gardner and Dyke - The Worst of Ashton, Gardner and Dyke (1970)

I have a separate and simultaneous auction running for the 1972 Bobby Whitlock CBS album "Raw Velvet", much rumoured to include an uncredited appearance by George.  That theory has lost credence in recent years so I haven't included it in this lot.  If you want to check it out anyway - it is a terrific album - it's listed as

BOBBY WHITLOCK ~ RAW VELVET ~ 1972 UK CBS ORIGINAL VINYL LP - SUPERB CONDITION
