Hurrah. Music celebrity auction news. Some poems written by Bob Dylan whilst he was a college student and a medallion worn onstage by Jimi Hendrix are to be auctioned this November in New York. On the Dylan poems, which are expected to fetch in the region of £40k, a Christie's spokesperson said "While some of the poems are rooted in his daily university life and reference his Jewish heritage with Yiddish phrases, the wit and irony pervasive in his later songwriting are already evident."
Also in the sale are a drum used by Paul McCartney and some handwritten Jim Morrison lyrics, penned on The Doors stationery for the song 'Not To Touch The Earth', and expected to raise around £30k.
