Here’s something incredibly rare and desirable for any Rolling Stones collector - and the winning bid will be supporting live music by raising funds for the much-loved UK grassroots venue the Sound Lounge.


Earlier this year, to tease their brilliant new album ‘Foreign Tongues,’ a strictly limited edition, one-sided 12-inch disc featuring lead track ‘Rough and Twisted’ was released under the Stones’ occasional “secret” identity of the Cockroaches. Only 1,000 individually numbered discs were pressed worldwide, and they've been changing hands for well over £1,000+ And this one is signed by both Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood! 


UK music journalist and author Paul Sexton (who wrote the authorised and acclaimed biography of Charlie Watts, ‘Charlie’s Good Tonight’) has interviewed and written extensively about the Stones for more than 30 years, including in a recent Sunday Times cover story. Sexton is a patron of the Sound Lounge, which is just one block away from the pub in Sutton, south London, that was formerly known as the Red Lion, where the band played some of their earliest shows in late 1962 and early ’63. 


During his recent interviews, Paul asked both Mick and Ronnie to sign his copy of the Cockroaches disc, numbered 00014, and is donating it as a unique prize for this auction to raise money for the Sound Lounge. You can sometimes get what you want, so get bidding!

When bidding on an auction item, if you enter more than the minimum increment for an item then your bid will be used for proxy bidding. This is how it works:
1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
2. jumblebee places a bid on your behalf, using the minimum amount required to make you the highest bidder, i.e. current bid price plus bid increment OR the reserve price, if there is one and it can be covered by your proxy bid.
3. jumblebee continues to bid on your behalf, whenever you are outbid by another member's bid, until your maximum bid is exceeded or the auction is won.
4. jumblebee will notify you by email if your maximum bid is outbid by another member and provided the auction is still running, you will then have a chance to enter a new maximum bid if you wish.
For example:
The current bid on an auction item is £100. The minimum increment is £10. You enter a bid of £150 (your maximum bid).
Using your bid, but increasing only by the minimum increment, jumblebee sets the current bid to £110.
Another person bids £130 but they are immediately outbid by jumblebee bidding on your behalf and the current bid goes up to £140.
The auction finishes and you have won the auction item at a price of £140.
