Introduction | Jeff Gold has been buying and selling collectible records and music memorabilia for 40 years. Profiled by ROLLING STONE as one of five “top collectors of high-end music memorabilia,” Gold is an internationally recognized expert in the field, and a frequent consultant to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio and the Experience Music Project in Seattle, Washington. Gold is the former Executive Vice President/General Manager of Warner Bros. Records where he worked with artists including Prince, REM, Madonna and The Red Hot Chili Peppers; at A&M Records, Gold worked with The Police, Cat Stevens, Soundgarden, and Al Green. A four time Grammy nominated art director, he won a Grammy Award for Suzanne Vega’s album “Day’s of Open Hand.” Gold has discovered a number of previously undocumented tapes, later released by major labels, including "Bob Dylan at Brandeis University 1963" and unreleased performances by the Velvet Underground and The Stooges. He was a featured appraiser on VH1's "Rock Collectors;" and is profiled in the book "Vinyl Junkies" by Brett Milano and "Retromania: Pop Culture's Addiction to Its Own Past" by Simon Reynolds. |
