It's Belgium sixties music galore
Starman Records is a new independent label grown out of passion and love for music with a heart. Their main mission is to pay tribute to music of the past, through a series of high quality re-releases. The first releases on Starman Records will be the “Belgian Vaults”Series.
Already out there is Volume 1 and Volume 2 is scheduled for release any moment now. These 180 g Vinyl only albums will feature a fine selection of Belgian sixties bands. Far from a mainstream hit compilation, these records contain rare, overlooked and exciting tracks, most of them never re-released before.

Future releases will also focus on the seventies and eighties, featuring both compilations and albums by individual artists.
Starman Records is open to any ideas, suggestions and proposals about re-releasing music. If you’ve played in a band or if you own mastertape rights and you think now is the time is to honor your musical past, please do contact us.
As of 2013, Starman Records will also release new music. Original and wayward artists will get a chance on our label too.

The King of Rock'n'Roll is born
The making of Elvis, behind the scenes
This Collector’s Edition of just 1,706 numbered copies signed by Wertheimer, brings together his most remarkable Elvis shots from 1956, along with a selection of his historic 1958 pictures of the star being shipped off to an army base in Germany. Though many of Wertheimer’s photos of Elvis are among the best known, nearly half of the photographs in this book have never been published before. Each chapter is illustrated with an original poster created for this book by Hatch Show Print, one of the oldest letterpress print shops in America. In business since 1879, Hatch printed posters for vaudeville, circuses, and entertainers on world tour in the early 20th century; and created many of the powerful woodblock images to help define the look of country music in the 1940s rock and roll (including many early Elvis posters) in the ’50s. Fans of photojournalism, portraiture, and, of course, the King himself will covet this collector’s volume.
You can buy it for me at Taschen for €500

It's Kathrine Switzer
Kathrine Switzer, the first woman to run the Boston Marathon, in 1967.
She faced opposition from Jock Semple, the organizer, but later went on to win the New York Marathon, and runs to this day.
