Strange Days Mono and The Cleves/Bitch.
I can recommend The Cleves/Bitch. (Here's a small bio)
https://www.realgroovy.co.nz/Product/66 ... H-|-CLEVES
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkiIc-xr7k4
And here they are on GTK (the same show that filmed the Doors performing CKS)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNF50__6Yd4
They were playing at the store I went to. They were really good, not bad for not being together for 40 odd years. The lead singer looked like a posh mother and could barely bring herself to say the word Bitch! lol
I also got a free turntable mat with the cover image from Led Zeps House of the Holy album.
Oh yeah I also found 3 Doors Spun Gold 45's I didn't have and a Willie Dixon vinyl, so it was a happy day.
What was on the Bowie one?

Thanks, will check it out.
The Bowie is white vinyl, only 2000 copies.I think it was not connected with RSD, but just had the same release date.
Early Bowie tracks remastered tracks
In 1972, at the height of David Bowie’s glam-era fame, former label Pye unlocked the vault and produced an EP, the aptly subtitled ‘For the Collector - Early David Bowie’, reprising four of the six songs Bowie recorded during 1965-1966. Since that time, those four (plus their two companions) have established themselves as mod pop classics. Here they are now in their glory - half a dozen slices of the young Bowie at his most endearing, mourning lost love and celebrating youthful promise, with his whole life ahead of him and fame still more than half a decade away.
1. I'm Not Losing Sleep
2. I Dig Everything
3. Can't Help Thinking About Me
4. Do Anything You Say
5. Good Morning Girl
6. And I Say To Myself

I didn't make it out on the day but later got hold of 2 of the 3 things I wanted - Strange Days mono (no. 3510) and More Roar by Robert Plant.
This is the first time I've heard SD in mono but I need to do more listening to fully appreciate it. What I do appreciate is the presentation with the inner sleeve and all. It's a great pressing, silent and flat. And call me odd, but I just that gold label on the record itself ....
As for the Plant, it's a 10" record (oddly enough I only have one other 10" record and that's Plant too - Honeydrippers Vol I) with a few live tracks from his recent tour supporting his last album. Again it's a great pressing and looks very classy with its black inner sleeve. There's 3 tracks, Turn It Up / Arbaden, Poor Howard (from Lullaby and the Ceaseless Roar) and a medley of Mona - Who Do You Love - Whole Lotta Love.
Taken apparently from the show in Glasgow last November, and if so very cool for me as I was there.
The third item I'm still after is a 7" single by Rich Robinson 'I Remember' b/w 'Up From The Skies' a live version of the Hendrix tune. I'm not sure it even made it to the UK so if anyone happens to have one, please drop me a pm.
