@@RobertFithen THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE ELECTRIC LADYLAND ( nude woman verison of the album sleeve release is rarer then , every album you have listed in this vidoe... A first edition of a Beetles pressing is also worth more then , Jimi Hendrix Ladyland and more value and are rarer then your , vinyls that you showed in this vidoe.
I need to do some research....Been collecting since late 80's...Started with 60's Psychedelic bands and Classic Rock...Have over 700 albums at present...Only thing that made it through my divorce...lol
if you still have those 60's psych' records they are worth an absolute shit ton.. I was lucky to find The Seeds in a thriftstore (sealed) as well as two original Beatles (mono press) UK released records for $2 AUD a piece.. couldn't believe my luck. I felt like a thief as I left the store..
indeed a lot have.. this was a few years ago though. but the weird thing about the Beatles finds was that particular thriftstore had a separate section which was allocated for more pricier records. someone working there must've not been aware and placed the LPs with all the ordinary records. I just kept my head down, paid and got out of there as quickly as possible
Great Vid, Robert! Yeah that Alice Cooper must have been signed or sealed. You’re spot on about value being personal. Always nice to find a score on high-dollar discs, but the personal element is important too. Mega jealous of that Nirvana. I really wish I’d been in college radio about ten years earlier than when I was.
Unless you were collecting vinyl at the time, you would've passed on it. People were really phasing out vinyl purchases and so had you been there, you might not have gotten it. I know I didn't think about it back then.
It ain't the autograph that made them so expensive, it IS the panties. Try and find one with those undies for cheap. I dare ya. Your copy, with pristine vinyl, $20 MAX
Man that Alice in Chains album is a must have! Tool kickass too... and finally Temple of the Dog, one of my favorite albums ever! It should be in any music library!
My most valuable record is probably a copy of The Cure's "Disintegration" signed by the entire line up at that time (except Laurence Tolhurst: Smith finally lost patience and booted him out of the band before the album was finished). I've no idea what it might be worth. I've got a few other eighties goth-oriented rarities, but most are probably too arse-achingly obscure to be worth much these days: 4AD box set of "Lonely is an Eyesore"; Skin's "Blood, Women, Roses" with original poster; Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry's "Paint Your Wagon" with free 7" disc; Xymox's "Twist of Shadows" rare original vinyl; Xmal Deutschland "Incubus Succubus" 7; and, of course, absolutely LOADS of original Sisters vinyl. Anyone interested in the original 7" picture sleeve of "Anaconda"? No, thought not.
i have it but i wouldn´t wanted not even given maybe one song there "fascination street" all others are some kind of ......nothing ,but the guitar player was very good and the cure were nothing after being him expeled from the cure by robert smith has he done with other musicians ,i don´t even understand how that bass player is there since early days, maybe strong glue
A few years back I made a KILLING on my grunge vinyl. I saw how much these elpee's were selling for and I just couldn't justify keeping them. Just for my original Soundgarden presses alone I made over $2,000. Alice in Chains Jar of flies/SAP vinyl I sold for $275.00, AIC Tripod I sold for $225.00. The most I got for any of them was the Orange vinyl Soundgarden "Superunknown". $500.00! I had all 4 colored vinyl versions of that album and made $1300.00 on just those albums!
Temple of the Dog got reissued in 2016. It's a nice 2LP set. It's about $25-$30. It may sound better than that old copy but I'm sure the old copy was going to be worth more anyway since it's the original. Good video.
Love your videos man!! Those Misfits 45's are AWESOME!! You and I have have a lot in common, I started collecting in 1996 when i djed on college radio my freshman year….My top three vinyl are the first Danzig, the first Puscifer (sealed) and a trip-hop band called Lovage which was one of Michael Patton's side projects….
The commercial “stock copy” version of the 1LP Tool “Undertow” on clear vinyl sounds FANTASTIC. I ended up also buying the 2LP version the label put out in 1996, that included “Disgustipated,” and a LOT more artwork. That clear 1LP version blows the 2LP away, when really it should be the other way around. Glad I LISTENED to both versions, before deciding to get rid of one of them. I almost sold the 1LP, but actually THAT is the one to have. Sorry to hear the grey vinyl promo did not turn out as well. Still, you CAN sell it for a lot of money. 🤑
I absolutely cannot support his opinion. I also have the gray promo pressing here and it is one of the best albums in my collection sound-wise. I have many, many first pressings. Be it Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Miles Davis, Lou Reed etc etc - I'm not bragging, please don't take it that way. But I have a lot of outstanding and fantastic sounding records here. Also my room is acoustically optimized by a room acoustician and physicist. I have here almost recording studio-like values (this is of course a matter of taste, but I like it and want it that way). And under my conditions, the Undertow grey Promo is really, really extremely good! On the other hand my Aenima is rather something thin. what I find very sad.
Temple Of The Dog has been officially re-released and it sounds great , I REALLY want the AIC "tripod" album, waiting patiently for an official re-release of that, AND Facelift! And of course Tool Lateralus and Aenema! I had a feeling the last 2 would be Misfits (Danzig also needs to re issue his solo stuff!)
@Atomic Duck Yep that reissue of Facelift sounds fantastic, which I think is a pretty hard thing to do, due to the strange sound quality that album has always had!
they re-re-re-release everything it´s a matter of waiting, i´m also a tool follower and have the first edition of temple of the dog in vinil ,before pearl jam released "ten"
The most I have ever paid for an Album was back in 2012. I paid around $100 for an original 1995 pressing of the Faith No More - King for a Day Fool for a Lifetime double vinyl album complete with the dog sticker. About six months later in 2013 they did their first reissue of it and I could have bought a copy for around $25. Discogs has the 1995 pressing valued between $35.00 low and $75.00 high right now. You are correct about reissues lowering the value of the originals. With all that said I love this record.
What little vinyl was being made in the 90s and 2000s was extremely short limited edition runs so anything desirable from that period is worth a lot of money. I think the original pressings of the two Garth Brooks albums that were actually released on vinyl are both over $100 purely because of scarcity
My most valuable is also the AiC self-titled. I kinda had to have it because it’s my favorite album but it was ridiculously hard to find. Ordered it from a record store in Chicago. I live in Texas.
The most valuable record I have is a 1974 Pat Benatar single called Day Gig. This was five years before her debut album. There were 200 made and there were only released in Richmond, VA at the time. Rumor has it, half got destroyed soon afterwards. It's sold once on Discogs, and I'm the fool who bought it. I spent 275.00 with shipping. Another valuable album I own is actually a CD/DVD Box Set…Genesis 1970-1975. Its median price on Discogs is 210.03 and sold for as much as 300.00. My 1982-1998 box set goes for maybe half that. I also have a couple Jethro Tull CD/DVD box sets that sell for around 130.00. Other valuable albums that are on vinyl with their median value: Miles Davis- Kind of Blue [1959 pressing] 160.00 Danzig- How the Gods Kill [1992 pressing] 130.00 AC/DC- High Voltage [Original Australian cover from 1975] 130.00 Coxon’s Army- Live from Sam Miller Exchange Café [Pat Benatar’s first band from 1974] 100.00 Pearl Jam- original pressings of Vs, Vitalogy and No Code [44.00-100.00] Stevie Ray Vaughn- The Sky is Crying [1991 pressing] 80.00 Queensrÿche- The Promised Land [1994 pressing] 70.00 Atomic Rooster- Atomic Rooster [1970 UK pressing] 60.00 And then there are some recent RSD releases (Alice Cooper, The Crow Soundtrack, etc…) that go for over 100.00 nowadays. But I’m sure (rather sooner than later) they will come down in value.
my grandma is a huge prince fan and she owns majority of his albums like purple rain, controversy, black cover, white cover, 1999 etc. but too bad they're not in amazing condition plus she wrote her last name on them because she went to parties a lot but if i ever visit her again i can show em
Temple of the Dog and Almost Famous have been reissued. I didnt realize my Temple 2013 music on vinyl issue, was worth almost as much as an orig. Back in 91, i couldn't find Temple on vinyl, but i found Hunger Strike 12" w/ poster. I bought cds in the 90s, but my true love was vinyl, and i actively seeked it out. You're so right, how vinyl was considered a joke. My most valuable vinyl is the stuff i paid nothing for. In the 90s, i mail-ordered Cure's Wild Moodswings and Bloodflowers for $10 each. By 1994, most vinyl was mailorder. You had to get on a bunch of lists, and be mailed flyers, to even find out what was on vinyl. In those days, i would spend hours looking through flyers. I had a Goldmine subscrip, but they catered to old vinyl. I was stoked when i found out Hot Topic was carring vinyl in 2001. I bought Weezers Hashpipe on 45, upon checking it out.. Some awesome stuff flowed through Hot Topic over the years - got Strokes Is This It import vinyl w/alt cover and ny city, Danzig picture discs, tons of Iron Maiden. In 2010, Hot Topic had a clearance vinyl sale, and i got some Bad Religion, Sonic Youth, Misfits, Tool reissues for $3 each, seriously
I lost my collection yrs ago after a bad relationship, had myself in storage and a person who lived there sold or stole my stuff. Alice Cooper in mint would be worth more, considering it was very early 70s. If you could get Alice in Chains the Japanese version of the album (plain white bc they were offended by the artwork). There is also a purple version. With a collection your size I would recheck your sources. I'm sure you have some surprises in there. Also look for import albums, I used to have an almost complete AC/DC collection, and some were very rare.
Cool video! I just looked up on Discogs what my most valuable records are: Kraftwerk - Kraftwerk and Kraftwerk - Kraftwerk 2 And an special single from a band called The Lords (Holland).
I co-run an online record store here in Canada called Funky Moose Records, and our top valued record was Chad Allen and The Expressions (Guess Who?) Shakin' All Over which was a first pressing, sold for $299 to a customer in Spain. Most recently, we sold two Pink Floyd's signed by Roger Waters for $200 a piece. We have sold a ton of used albums, but generally, good rock albums sell for around the $10-$25 mark.
Great video, who knew that 90’s vinyl would become collectible. The only lp in your video that I have is, Alice Cooper’s Schools Out, white label promo, with the panties, report card and the cover folds into a school desk. Something I picked up for cheap(I think under $10) many years ago, I know it’s collectible. Thanks for sharing.
Omg yo that’s my goal is to have millions of records on my shelf in the feature lol I love collecting vinyl!! I’m 11 and I have bad company, Beatles etc I’ll do a video on it eventually but yea wow 😯 nice collection bro
ItzLuke Butler that’s awesome!!! I’ll give you some advice from an old man.... buy records you like, and don’t sell or trade them. Before you know it you’ll have thousands and you’ll be looking for somewhere to store them and your significant other will be on you to get rid of them all!! Happy digging!
A little advice coming from an old man who has been a 25 year dealer/seller. Several years ago I sold my collection over 14,000 to a guy who owns 5 record stores across the country, keeping only my own personal collection of about a 700 or so. Unfortunately, I still buy and sell off and on and I'd like to get out of it, but I 'm afraid once you start you can never completely stop! Although I have had a lot of good times, met a lot of good people and have obtain a ton of useless/useful? trivia over the years, it can be very taxing! They can take up a lot of your Time, Energy and Money! As Richard said NEVER get to the point where you have so many that you rent a storage unit! I could buy a new car and pay cash for it with what I spent in storage unit costs over the years! Try not to get to the point where you are getting too many! If you do sell some, sell them on Discogs, Craigslist somewhere where it's cash in your pocket so your in and out! A one shot deal! Don't to get to excited and take the money and buy more records or you’ll be hooked! Spend it on something else you enjoy or better yet, save it for your future for a car, college...etc. That being said, Never be afraid to expand your mind and ears to accepting new genres (types) of music, but you can do that through sites like youtube, you don't need to own the physical record unless you absolutely want to! Buying CDs is better quality, often cheaper and take up a lot less room. Storing MP3s, WAV and Video files of your favorites songs and albums on your computer is even better! And you can burn them onto CDs to listen to! Don’t get me wrong, the joy of taking out a Record, looking at the cover, reading the liner notes and credits, and putting it on a record player and listening to it with the needle sound and all is fantastic! But, you can keep an organized, small collection of your absolute favorites to do this! Remember, you can Always add to your collection when you find an album you really love and want to buy a record copy of it! Anyway, again, just a little advice you might want to consider. You obviously love music and that is what is truly important! Don’t ever stop learning...and listening!
A few of my grails: Captain Beefheart-Trout Mask Replica -1st press on Straight/complete VG+ Boris- Akuma no Ulta- 1st press mint Boris -Pink 1st press mint Beatles-White Album-White vinyl-unnumbered Velvet Underground &Nico - mono UK 1st press w misprint- VG+ Velvet Underground-S/T- 1st press Velvet Underground- White Light/White Heat Dead Kennedys- 1st press on Faulty records Joy Division-Unknown Pleasures-promo press That Tool Aenima is def one any Tool fan would pay for, as it’s their most sought after, but I’d take the original shrink off, as the pressure will cause the spine to flatten out or if it’s cut, will sometimes stick to the sleeve. Cool video. Always cool seeing other people who have been collecting for that long.
Out of those, I have the white vinyl White Album. Would love to find a UK 1st pressing of the White Album and Velvet Underground debut (banana intact).
Clementine *Daniels, I had Trout Mask Rep. on loan from the library when I was in high school in the mid 70’s. They told me to keep it until I left the Island when I graduated as no one had checked it out since it was released. I still love it. I only have it on cd now. I do have FZ’s 200 Motels lp, however. A recent find in vg shape, but missing the poster. I am giddy at finding it for pretty cheap considering. Cheers to all. Ps. I do have all kind of old stuff: Tull, Radiohead, Wes Montgomery, Classic lp’s, Firesign Theater and a few Zappa lp’s and a buttload of cd’s.
The shrink wrap has been slit and removed. You can keep it around the album and the records will be fine in there. It is when you leave it sealed, and the shrink wrap gets tighter and then it warps the record. His IS the ideal copy as it is an original with all the hype stickers still attached to the open shrinkwrap. Wish I bought that thing when I saw it for $12.99!!! 😣
Wow I wasn’t aware of that Undertow variant. I have the clear vinyl edition. There was a Classic Records Deion of Almost Famous. So like you I was collecting lots of 90s vinyl. Like to see more of what you have
I enjoyed your video very much...very cool stuff... & at the end you hold up that "butcher cover" beatles album...wtf ??? you crazy...phahahahah ;)), ;))...Now that thing is actualy realy worth something !!! thumbs up
Francisco Oliveira Fellow Mancunians. I got to see DC a few years ago. Vinni Reilly is such a unique player. They were on Factory records which took a lot of pride in their album artwork.
The pricing on the Misfits albums are not nearly as high as they once were. Around the time Ed Wood was released Plan 9 pressings went through the roof. Vinyls selling for several hundred dollars. Not too long after people who were trying to resell them could not even get an eighth of what they paid. Since vinyl as a whole has picked up in collectability it has rised a bit but nowhere near what it was at those times. That unfortunately is what is depicting the average prices that many find. Same for many! You need to do searches for 2019 pricings. Be careful, and enjoy!
This is a good video. I really enjoy this thread. I don't think I would pay the median price for these, but it sure is interesting. Something happened to my Alice Cooper panties, also.Thanks, Chris
From 1972 to 1986 Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other group in the world. 50 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas and Stadiums.
@@kensims4086 Bing Crosby didn't want it competing with his other albums so it was limited to two music stores in Cincinnati. Published by the World Library of Sacred Music in 1957. I am the historian at the company. Only 1000 were printed. Then it was lost for 60 years. It was reprinted in 2017, but the original album is very rare. Only 2 copies exist in our archive and one copy is at the Bing Crosby library in California.
Interesting-- I'd like to find out the most valuable in my collection, but... I can't see myself entering some 15,000 records into Discogs to find out. Plus, I'm not convinced that value is necessarily connected to price. The thing is, my most prized and rare albums and singles are small pressings where there's a good chance not enough people even KNOW of their existence for them to have as much popularity to raise the price as some we're seeing here (though I'll have to find out what Misfits I have, may have a single-- will have to check). I used to scour the single bins in the 1980s and 90s for obscure punk/alternative bands and have a bunch of stuff probably nobody's ever heard of-- some of it great. Back then there were a lot of one-off limited releases (limited because hardly anyone heard of the bands, even back then). I'd think they'd be valuable (certainly collectible), but if nobody knows about them, it ain't gonna drive the price up-- so there's probably some really good collectibles out there for people to discover... Though I am wondering, where do you find the median price on Discogs-- I've not really used it before? I've got a first pressing of School's Out that still has the panties, and the only price I see on the page is one of 841 for sale with a lowest price of something like $1.69. While my copy might not be particularly valuable, the price I'm seeing on the page seems to be the lowest asking price-- I see one similar to mine sold on Ebay recently for $99, so I think the $1.69 is not a good judgement of what it might take in...
You have to find the version you have and it show how many of those have sold. Should have a filter where you can see a low-high price for what it's sold. Most mint or sealed sale for the highest price. Can also check it on popsike
Some awesome stuff in there, Robert. Love those Tool albums and the Misfits 45's. I was the same as you back in the 90's though. When I would go into a record store, I mostly ignored the newer vinyl pressings because I alreadsy had them on cd LOL Boy, was I a dummy!!
Love the t shirt rob…..thought you didn’t like Zappa ❤️😂just discovered a good album by Sopwith camel ….The hump returns to the moon ( or something like that …..)
Funny enough I own a non panty version of schools out signed by Alice! I have a small collection Alice records signed by him because I work at an antique mall he visits rather frequently in Arizona. Nice guy, always eager to meet you sign something and take a picture! They hang on my wall and are the pride and joy of my collection!
I sold a few of my 90s records only really thinking my albums from the 60s and 70s were the valuable ones. Never thought the 90s would someday be "20+ years ago". Also stupidly gave away an orange Capitol copy of Sgt. Pepper because I never thought a 1975 reissue would be sought after and a mono promo copy of Led Zeppelin II was pretty beat up, although apparently is quite collectable.
Orange label Capitol Beatles LPs aren't really collectible and sound pretty crappy. As far as US albums are concerned, for best sound quality, I'd go with the 1983 rainbow label Capitol reissues. For collectibility, I'd go with the original mono versions.
I know my most valuable LP is Led Zeppelin 1 first UK pressing, with the label error, turquoise lettering on the cover etc….I bought it from a friend in 1969 for £1.
I’ve thought of paying 500 for that tool record several times. Eventually I feel like I will pull the trigger on one for a very high price if it’s not reissued soon
Robert Fithen do you own mutha goose from 1975 (might be ‘73) That vinyl had a reported micro pressing of around 100 copies worldwide probably just sold in us/ Canada , half destroyed in bands van on way to a gig...if that ain’t rock n roll man
Robert Fithen my bad. Because all the records you pulled were in paper sleeves and no outer sleeves. Also, behind you in the shelves I don’t see a lot of outer sleeves.
Thanks for posting this video man! I love going record shopping. The most valuable record I got from my uncle. When I told him in high school my favorite band was sonic youth. He gave me his special edition 2lp on orange vinyl wrapped in cloth with hand prints on it, REM unplugged 4lp(bought it new) tales of terror's LP. I love going to see live shows more now so I've been collecting live bootlegs in any forms 😍
I’m shocked by the amount of money some of my records have become worth, but that certainly doesn’t stop me from playing them. My most prized records have a personal story attached to them which makes em worth a lot to me at least.
I have a special edition 'School's Out' with underwear worn by Alice back in his boozing days, with enough DNA to clone Vincent Fournier when the technology becomes affordable. Just an attempt at humour. Cool video but I wanted to bring up high prices at some auctions, leading to some silly asking prices. Popsike shows radically different prices for the same pressings. So discogs highest is not only non-representative of going rates for many titles, but the average gets distorted as well, I think, leading people to expect three figure sums for popular records which aren't particularly rare. There's a lot of luck with auctioning anything. High end fine art runs the gamut, and sometimes everyone is thrilled by what was bid, other times surprised by lower winning bids. I bring this up, because often enough the startlingly high price of some rare records comes from 1 auction with two well off bidders in a war for the item. Also, I think a lot of recent releases that are 'manufactured rare' (i.e. limited colours of vinyl) are probably being hoarded by collectors and kept sealed and in mint, unplayed condition. So I'd hesitate to drop serious money on some of those mid and late 1990's albums. I'm not trying to sound like a know it all, just adding my two cents, which may be worth up to 1.02$ at auction. Plus 30$ shipping.
if there are people who exist who will pay ridiculous prices FOR ANYTHING then the last person who should be ridiculed is the person who sold said item. Caveat Emptor anyone ? Unknowingly buying something worthless, however unfair, and "fault" have long been thrown in the lap of the buyer. It's a nasty business especially if the product is a necessity (eg. medication) but if the product is something as superfluous as an album, then dude, lumpy gravy.
The end is the best. "Oh and that one too..." haha. Subscribed--I think you may have inspired me to start up a channel during this lockdown. Been collecting for 30yrs or so. Heck why not? Great video!
On my copy of Schools Out, bought in 1972, the cover open up like s desk and it has the pencils and erasers and ruler and the panties. Those are the high price ones.
I found a bootleg for Temple of the Dog in Dresden, didn’t realise it was a bootleg, sounds tragic. Then in my local store I found an original and couldn’t believe it was being sold in its excellent condition for just £20. Sounds wayyyy better and I consider myself lucky as hell to get it for that cheap.
I'm still on the fence with Discog. Record stores I've been to recently seem to just take the high end price and use it as their price point. The most valuable piece in my collection would be Discord #2 SOA No Policy EP. Nice video!!
Thanks! There's a makeshift record store in this area that actually has a sign that reads "All prices based on Discogs". I thought "thanks for the warning", looked through a couple bins and left.
@@RobertFithen It is a great way to log your collection, I won't argue that. I worked in a record store for a while during the 90's and wish I wasn't only buying punk/garage music!!🤣
Mine is Black Flag's first 7" Nervous Breakdown. Paid $110.00 years ago and now it's $900.00 to $1400.00 on the high side depending on condition and whatnot.
The Temple of the Dog album was re-released in gatefold/double/180 gram. It’s a 20 anniversary release. Sounds amazing. I used to have AIC’s self titled also. You made me sad showing me it’s worth so much. I didn’t sell it. It was stolen.
To be honest i had no clou about what some records are "worth" meanwhile in my collection before i discovered Discogs. And the funny thing is most of them i found in bargain bins of large supermarkets or 2nd hand stores in the mid to late eighties,when the CD was on the rise. Meanwhile most of them had cd reissiues or more recent even "audiophile" vinyl reissiues,but some dont. Well,in my experience the most rare records - at least in the musical spectrum im interested in - dont sell for top dollar because they are to unknown.
Same with me. I just started entering my 50 year collection of vinyl and CD's into discogs. I have a lot of early punk albums like Circle Jerks, DOA, Black Flag, etc. that I bought for 4 or 5 bucks new on release and other artists that really weren't on peoples radar back in the late 70's/early 80's. I keep calling my son into the room when I show him what they're "supposed" to be worth.
I had a collection of about 250 lps, soft rock, 80's, jazz, latin, salsa, ballads, but during hurricane Irma all of them were flooded. I dont know if it worth keeping them. A part of me died with the flood.
"I dont really have that many" me: looks at his wall of records
LOL. I meant I don't that many highly valuable records.
Meant Valuable Records. I believe we all got that one ;)
its a joke, dont you get it !!!!!!
😂true
It’s never enough.

Man that Alice in Chains album is a must have! Tool kickass too... and finally Temple of the Dog, one of my favorite albums ever! It should be in any music library!
My most valuable record is probably a copy of The Cure's "Disintegration" signed by the entire line up at that time (except Laurence Tolhurst: Smith finally lost patience and booted him out of the band before the album was finished). I've no idea what it might be worth. I've got a few other eighties goth-oriented rarities, but most are probably too arse-achingly obscure to be worth much these days: 4AD box set of "Lonely is an Eyesore"; Skin's "Blood, Women, Roses" with original poster; Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry's "Paint Your Wagon" with free 7" disc; Xymox's "Twist of Shadows" rare original vinyl; Xmal Deutschland "Incubus Succubus" 7; and, of course, absolutely LOADS of original Sisters vinyl. Anyone interested in the original 7" picture sleeve of "Anaconda"? No, thought not.
i have it but i wouldn´t wanted not even given maybe one song there "fascination street" all others are some kind of ......nothing ,but the guitar player was very good and the cure were nothing after being him expeled from the cure by robert smith has he done with other musicians ,i don´t even understand how that bass player is there since early days, maybe strong glue
Excellent taste, and great to see a RLYL mention - a rarity these days. Cheers!
I like how your library naturally makes the acoustics in the room insulated.
A few years back I made a KILLING on my grunge vinyl. I saw how much these elpee's were selling for and I just couldn't justify keeping them. Just for my original Soundgarden presses alone I made over $2,000. Alice in Chains Jar of flies/SAP vinyl I sold for $275.00, AIC Tripod I sold for $225.00. The most I got for any of them was the Orange vinyl Soundgarden "Superunknown". $500.00! I had all 4 colored vinyl versions of that album and made $1300.00 on just those albums!
I don't remember if I showed it in the video, but I have the same "Superunknown" except mine has a scratch in it. A deliberate scratch. College days.
I want the Almost Famous soundtrack. Sweet collection.
"School's Out".... I still have the pink panties.
Tried to light them on fire... they're fireproof !
Were you wearing them at the time?
Temple of the Dog got reissued in 2016. It's a nice 2LP set. It's about $25-$30. It may sound better than that old copy but I'm sure the old copy was going to be worth more anyway since it's the original. Good video.
Love your videos man!! Those Misfits 45's are AWESOME!! You and I have have a lot in common, I started collecting in 1996 when i djed on college radio my freshman year….My top three vinyl are the first Danzig, the first Puscifer (sealed) and a trip-hop band called Lovage which was one of Michael Patton's side projects….
The commercial “stock copy” version of the 1LP Tool “Undertow” on clear vinyl sounds FANTASTIC.
I ended up also buying the 2LP version the label put out in 1996, that included “Disgustipated,” and a LOT more artwork.
That clear 1LP version blows the 2LP away, when really it should be the other way around.
Glad I LISTENED to both versions, before deciding to get rid of one of them. I almost sold the 1LP, but actually THAT is the one to have.
Sorry to hear the grey vinyl promo did not turn out as well. Still, you CAN sell it for a lot of money. 🤑
I absolutely cannot support his opinion. I also have the gray promo pressing here and it is one of the best albums in my collection sound-wise. I have many, many first pressings. Be it Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Miles Davis, Lou Reed etc etc - I'm not bragging, please don't take it that way. But I have a lot of outstanding and fantastic sounding records here.
Also my room is acoustically optimized by a room acoustician and physicist.
I have here almost recording studio-like values (this is of course a matter of taste, but I like it and want it that way).
And under my conditions, the Undertow grey Promo is really, really extremely good!
On the other hand my Aenima is rather something thin. what I find very sad.
Like anything, this stuff is only worth what someone will pay for it. Very nice collection sir.
My most valuable one is a first pressing of Failure - Fantastic Planet.
Thats basically jewelry
I want to hear another space song on vinyl so bad!
I recently got the reissue. Havent even opened it yet lol
So jealous of that gorgeous aenima
Temple Of The Dog has been officially re-released and it sounds great , I REALLY want the AIC "tripod" album, waiting patiently for an official re-release of that, AND Facelift! And of course Tool Lateralus and Aenema! I had a feeling the last 2 would be Misfits (Danzig also needs to re issue his solo stuff!)
@Atomic Duck Yep that reissue of Facelift sounds fantastic, which I think is a pretty hard thing to do, due to the strange sound quality that album has always had!
they re-re-re-release everything it´s a matter of waiting, i´m also a tool follower and have the first edition of temple of the dog in vinil ,before pearl jam released "ten"
The most I have ever paid for an Album was back in 2012. I paid around $100 for an original 1995 pressing of the Faith No More - King for a Day Fool for a Lifetime double vinyl album complete with the dog sticker. About six months later in 2013 they did their first reissue of it and I could have bought a copy for around $25. Discogs has the 1995 pressing valued between $35.00 low and $75.00 high right now. You are correct about reissues lowering the value of the originals. With all that said I love this record.
Loving the record is what matters.
Yesterday and Today “Butcher” cover and stereo too 😱 haha oh yeah, that one too! Nice collection!
What little vinyl was being made in the 90s and 2000s was extremely short limited edition runs so anything desirable from that period is worth a lot of money.
I think the original pressings of the two Garth Brooks albums that were actually released on vinyl are both over $100 purely because of scarcity
Love the Peaches shirt. I worked at Peaches in Rockville MD in the late 70s - early 80s
My most valuable is also the AiC self-titled. I kinda had to have it because it’s my favorite album but it was ridiculously hard to find. Ordered it from a record store in Chicago. I live in Texas.
Thanks Robert, for sharing some valuable info. Nice presentation. Especially the last LP.
The most valuable record I have is a 1974 Pat Benatar single called Day Gig. This was five years before her debut album. There were 200 made and there were only released in Richmond, VA at the time. Rumor has it, half got destroyed soon afterwards. It's sold once on Discogs, and I'm the fool who bought it. I spent 275.00 with shipping.
Another valuable album I own is actually a CD/DVD Box Set…Genesis 1970-1975. Its median price on Discogs is 210.03 and sold for as much as 300.00. My 1982-1998 box set goes for maybe half that. I also have a couple Jethro Tull CD/DVD box sets that sell for around 130.00.
Other valuable albums that are on vinyl with their median value:
Miles Davis- Kind of Blue [1959 pressing] 160.00
Danzig- How the Gods Kill [1992 pressing] 130.00
AC/DC- High Voltage [Original Australian cover from 1975] 130.00
Coxon’s Army- Live from Sam Miller Exchange Café [Pat Benatar’s first band from 1974] 100.00
Pearl Jam- original pressings of Vs, Vitalogy and No Code [44.00-100.00]
Stevie Ray Vaughn- The Sky is Crying [1991 pressing] 80.00
Queensrÿche- The Promised Land [1994 pressing] 70.00
Atomic Rooster- Atomic Rooster [1970 UK pressing] 60.00
And then there are some recent RSD releases (Alice Cooper, The Crow Soundtrack, etc…) that go for over 100.00 nowadays. But I’m sure (rather sooner than later) they will come down in value.
my grandma is a huge prince fan and she owns majority of his albums like purple rain, controversy, black cover, white cover, 1999 etc. but too bad they're not in amazing condition plus she wrote her last name on them because she went to parties a lot but if i ever visit her again i can show em
Love the Peaches record shirt, brings back some memories!
I thought the same thing! We also had Camelot Music and Record Bar here in NC. One of the main reasons we hung out at the mall so much in the 70s.
Excellent work, Robert, as always. Keep doing it!
Temple of the Dog and Almost Famous have been reissued. I didnt realize my Temple 2013 music on vinyl issue, was worth almost as much as an orig. Back in 91, i couldn't find Temple on vinyl, but i found Hunger Strike 12" w/ poster. I bought cds in the 90s, but my true love was vinyl, and i actively seeked it out. You're so right, how vinyl was considered a joke. My most valuable vinyl is the stuff i paid nothing for. In the 90s, i mail-ordered Cure's Wild Moodswings and Bloodflowers for $10 each. By 1994, most vinyl was mailorder. You had to get on a bunch of lists, and be mailed flyers, to even find out what was on vinyl. In those days, i would spend hours looking through flyers. I had a Goldmine subscrip, but they catered to old vinyl. I was stoked when i found out Hot Topic was carring vinyl in 2001. I bought Weezers Hashpipe on 45, upon checking it out.. Some awesome stuff flowed through Hot Topic over the years - got Strokes Is This It import vinyl w/alt cover and ny city, Danzig picture discs, tons of Iron Maiden. In 2010, Hot Topic had a clearance vinyl sale, and i got some Bad Religion, Sonic Youth, Misfits, Tool reissues for $3 each, seriously
I lost my collection yrs ago after a bad relationship, had myself in storage and a person who lived there sold or stole my stuff.
Alice Cooper in mint would be worth more, considering it was very early 70s. If you could get Alice in Chains the Japanese version of the album (plain white bc they were offended by the artwork). There is also a purple version.
With a collection your size I would recheck your sources. I'm sure you have some surprises in there. Also look for import albums, I used to have an almost complete AC/DC collection, and some were very rare.
That last record, of which we only catch a glimpse, must be worth a few thousand dollars. Hah!
Cool video!
I just looked up on Discogs what my most valuable records are: Kraftwerk - Kraftwerk and Kraftwerk - Kraftwerk 2
And an special single from a band called The Lords (Holland).
My most valuable album would probably be the French twelve track album version of The Kinks are The Village Green Preservation Society from 1968
I know that the album from paradis is quiet a bit
Peaches Records! Boy does that bring back great memories from my childhood!
I co-run an online record store here in Canada called Funky Moose Records, and our top valued record was Chad Allen and The Expressions (Guess Who?) Shakin' All Over which was a first pressing, sold for $299 to a customer in Spain. Most recently, we sold two Pink Floyd's signed by Roger Waters for $200 a piece. We have sold a ton of used albums, but generally, good rock albums sell for around the $10-$25 mark.
Great video, who knew that 90’s vinyl would become collectible. The only lp in your video that I have is, Alice Cooper’s Schools Out, white label promo, with the panties, report card and the cover folds into a school desk. Something I picked up for cheap(I think under $10) many years ago, I know it’s collectible. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Ive had School's Out for years, but never had the panties or report card.
Loved the video. Thanks for taking the time to make it👍👉🤘
Omg yo that’s my goal is to have millions of records on my shelf in the feature lol I love collecting vinyl!! I’m 11 and I have bad company, Beatles etc I’ll do a video on it eventually but yea wow 😯 nice collection bro
ItzLuke Butler that’s awesome!!! I’ll give you some advice from an old man.... buy records you like, and don’t sell or trade them. Before you know it you’ll have thousands and you’ll be looking for somewhere to store them and your significant other will be on you to get rid of them all!! Happy digging!
Richard Skinner lol 😂 thanks man 👍
That's good kid, don't say yo though you're not a black person
John Earl sorry lol
A little advice
coming from an old man who has been a 25 year dealer/seller. Several
years ago I sold my collection over 14,000 to a guy who owns 5 record
stores across the country, keeping only my own personal collection of
about a 700 or so. Unfortunately, I still buy and sell off and on and
I'd like to get out of it, but I 'm afraid once you start you can
never completely stop! Although I have had a lot of good times, met a
lot of good people and have obtain a ton of useless/useful? trivia
over the years, it can be very taxing! They can take up a lot of your
Time, Energy and Money! As Richard said NEVER get to the point where
you have so many that you rent a storage unit! I could buy a new car
and pay cash for it with what I spent in storage unit costs over the
years! Try not to get to the point where you are getting too many! If
you do sell some, sell them on Discogs, Craigslist somewhere where
it's cash in your pocket so your in and out! A one shot deal! Don't
to get to excited and take the money and buy more records or you’ll
be hooked! Spend it on something else you enjoy or better yet, save
it for your future for a car, college...etc. That being said, Never
be afraid to expand your mind and ears to accepting new genres
(types) of music, but you can do that through sites like youtube, you
don't need to own the physical record unless you absolutely want to!
Buying CDs is better quality, often cheaper and take up a lot less
room. Storing MP3s, WAV and Video files of your favorites songs and
albums on your computer is even better! And you can burn them onto
CDs to listen to! Don’t get me wrong, the joy of taking out a
Record, looking at the cover, reading the liner notes and credits,
and putting it on a record player and listening to it with the needle
sound and all is fantastic! But, you can keep an organized, small
collection of your absolute favorites to do this! Remember, you can
Always add to your collection when you find an album you really love
and want to buy a record copy of it! Anyway, again, just a little
advice you might want to consider. You obviously love music and that
is what is truly important! Don’t ever stop learning...and listening!
A few of my grails:
Captain Beefheart-Trout Mask Replica -1st press on Straight/complete VG+
Boris- Akuma no Ulta- 1st press mint
Boris -Pink 1st press mint
Beatles-White Album-White vinyl-unnumbered
Velvet Underground &Nico - mono UK 1st press w misprint- VG+
Velvet Underground-S/T- 1st press
Velvet Underground- White Light/White Heat
Dead Kennedys- 1st press on Faulty records
Joy Division-Unknown Pleasures-promo press
That Tool Aenima is def one any Tool fan would pay for, as it’s their most sought after, but I’d take the original shrink off, as the pressure will cause the spine to flatten out or if it’s cut, will sometimes stick to the sleeve. Cool video. Always cool seeing other people who have been collecting for that long.
Out of those, I have the white vinyl White Album. Would love to find a UK 1st pressing of the White Album and Velvet Underground debut (banana intact).
that is so cool
Clementine *Daniels, I had Trout Mask Rep. on loan from the library when I was in high school in the mid 70’s. They told me to keep it until I left the Island when I graduated as no one had checked it out since it was released. I still love it. I only have it on cd now. I do have FZ’s 200 Motels lp, however. A recent find in vg shape, but missing the poster. I am giddy at finding it for pretty cheap considering. Cheers to all. Ps. I do have all kind of old stuff: Tull, Radiohead, Wes Montgomery, Classic lp’s, Firesign Theater and a few Zappa lp’s and a buttload of cd’s.
The shrink wrap has been slit and removed.
You can keep it around the album and the records will be fine in there.
It is when you leave it sealed, and the shrink wrap gets tighter and then it warps the record.
His IS the ideal copy as it is an original with all the hype stickers still attached to the open shrinkwrap.
Wish I bought that thing when I saw it for $12.99!!! 😣
Wow I wasn’t aware of that Undertow variant. I have the clear vinyl edition. There was a Classic Records Deion of Almost Famous. So like you I was collecting lots of 90s vinyl. Like to see more of what you have
punk isnt doing well on ebay ,,,,oddly
I enjoyed your video very much...very cool stuff... & at the end you hold up that "butcher cover" beatles album...wtf ??? you crazy...phahahahah ;)), ;))...Now that thing is actualy realy worth something !!! thumbs up
This Durutti Column record is amazing
Duraaaty Column. Get it right : )
Francisco Oliveira Fellow Mancunians. I got to see DC a few years ago. Vinni Reilly is such a unique player. They were on Factory records which took a lot of pride in their album artwork.
The pricing on the Misfits albums are not nearly as high as they once were. Around the time Ed Wood was released Plan 9 pressings went through the roof. Vinyls selling for several hundred dollars. Not too long after people who were trying to resell them could not even get an eighth of what they paid.
Since vinyl as a whole has picked up in collectability it has rised a bit but nowhere near what it was at those times. That unfortunately is what is depicting the average prices that many find. Same for many! You need to do searches for 2019 pricings.
Be careful, and enjoy!
Thumbs up on the Peaches T-shirt!
that wall behind him would be full of gold vinyl rules onya mate very interesting peace and love lloydy
My old man has nevermind vinyl issue too.
I have Nirvana Nevermind, had no idea it was worth that much😮
This is a good video. I really enjoy this thread. I don't think I would pay the median price for these, but it sure is interesting. Something happened to my Alice Cooper panties, also.Thanks, Chris
Thanks! I'm not sure I'd pay those prices either.
Killer collection selections! It takes years to track down and own these bad boys. Thank you for sharing!
From 1972 to 1986 Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other group in the world. 50 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas and Stadiums.
Hi guys! I have their catalog in one format or another. Loved ELO for years.
I have almost everything Jeff has ever done, from The Move, ELO, the Wilburys and his latest solo work
ELO RULES
YES! Jeff Lynne Musical Genius!
My dad has the "turquoise lettered" Led Zep I LP....they go for four figures...in fact there's one on there for €10,000 😳
Thanks for sharing Robert. ❤❤❤ How wonderful if somebody plan to have an events or party that all vinyl lovers gather together share their records.
I appreciate that you used the median price! Nice collection, envious of "Undertow"!
Don't forget the 1957 "Bible Story of Christmas" narrated by Bing Crosby. only 1000 were made and only sold in Cincinnati.
Why was it only sold in cincinnati? I live here never heard anyone mention it??
@@kensims4086 Bing Crosby didn't want it competing with his other albums so it was limited to two music stores in Cincinnati. Published by the World Library of Sacred Music in 1957. I am the historian at the company. Only 1000 were printed. Then it was lost for 60 years. It was reprinted in 2017, but the original album is very rare. Only 2 copies exist in our archive and one copy is at the Bing Crosby library in California.
Interesting-- I'd like to find out the most valuable in my collection, but... I can't see myself entering some 15,000 records into Discogs to find out. Plus, I'm not convinced that value is necessarily connected to price. The thing is, my most prized and rare albums and singles are small pressings where there's a good chance not enough people even KNOW of their existence for them to have as much popularity to raise the price as some we're seeing here (though I'll have to find out what Misfits I have, may have a single-- will have to check). I used to scour the single bins in the 1980s and 90s for obscure punk/alternative bands and have a bunch of stuff probably nobody's ever heard of-- some of it great. Back then there were a lot of one-off limited releases (limited because hardly anyone heard of the bands, even back then). I'd think they'd be valuable (certainly collectible), but if nobody knows about them, it ain't gonna drive the price up-- so there's probably some really good collectibles out there for people to discover...
Though I am wondering, where do you find the median price on Discogs-- I've not really used it before? I've got a first pressing of School's Out that still has the panties, and the only price I see on the page is one of 841 for sale with a lowest price of something like $1.69. While my copy might not be particularly valuable, the price I'm seeing on the page seems to be the lowest asking price-- I see one similar to mine sold on Ebay recently for $99, so I think the $1.69 is not a good judgement of what it might take in...
You have to find the version you have and it show how many of those have sold. Should have a filter where you can see a low-high price for what it's sold. Most mint or sealed sale for the highest price. Can also check it on popsike
the 45s from the Misfits are amazing, thanks for sharing!! Would love to take them off your hands ...
Some awesome stuff in there, Robert. Love those Tool albums and the Misfits 45's. I was the same as you back in the 90's though. When I would go into a record store, I mostly ignored the newer vinyl pressings because I alreadsy had them on cd LOL Boy, was I a dummy!!
Me too. I could kick myself for all the records I traded in for cd's in the 90's.
In my (extensive) experience selling on Discogs, Europeans collect 80’s rap and everybody collects Pink Floyd.
Where you the one that sold 1971 Fraction Moon Blood on discogs? It was $1900
"And that one too" ha ha!
Love the t shirt rob…..thought you didn’t like Zappa ❤️😂just discovered a good album by Sopwith camel ….The hump returns to the moon ( or something like that …..)
Funny enough I own a non panty version of schools out signed by Alice! I have a small collection Alice records signed by him because I work at an antique mall he visits rather frequently in Arizona. Nice guy, always eager to meet you sign something and take a picture! They hang on my wall and are the pride and joy of my collection!
I sold a few of my 90s records only really thinking my albums from the 60s and 70s were the valuable ones. Never thought the 90s would someday be "20+ years ago".
Also stupidly gave away an orange Capitol copy of Sgt. Pepper because I never thought a 1975 reissue would be sought after and a mono promo copy of Led Zeppelin II was pretty beat up, although apparently is quite collectable.
Orange label Capitol Beatles LPs aren't really collectible and sound pretty crappy. As far as US albums are concerned, for best sound quality, I'd go with the 1983 rainbow label Capitol reissues. For collectibility, I'd go with the original mono versions.
My dorm-mates and I used to make late-night runs to Peaches. Great memories.
Is that butcher cover first state or steamed?
Holy shit man you lucked out with the Dog album. Great channel. I will be watching more of your videos
Know nothing about vinyl but found your video very interesting and love your passion!
I had the "Meet the Beatles" lp. I gave it to my sister. And I really liked the, off the cuff, butcher reveal. lol
You need to be veeeeeerrrry careful with Misfits singles. There are so many bootlegs out there that would fool the most diligent collector.
I know my most valuable LP is Led Zeppelin 1 first UK pressing, with the label error, turquoise lettering on the cover etc….I bought it from a friend in 1969 for £1.
The underwear is what drives up the prices on the Alice Cooper album....nice collection!
I’ve thought of paying 500 for that tool record several times. Eventually I feel like I will pull the trigger on one for a very high price if it’s not reissued soon
Temple Of The Dog got reissued by MoV and that pressing sounds great.
I was going to mention that myself. Has an etched d-side too.
I like your Style, all the best from germany. 🙂
Some awesome stuff and great stories ❤
Never seen such a collection with no inner and outer sleeves.
I was thinking the same thing.
Curious. How do you know there are no inner sleeves? (There are)
Robert Fithen, Right on!
Robert Fithen do you own mutha goose from 1975 (might be ‘73)
That vinyl had a reported micro pressing of around 100 copies worldwide probably just sold in us/ Canada , half destroyed in bands van on way to a gig...if that ain’t rock n roll man
Robert Fithen my bad. Because all the records you pulled were in paper sleeves and no outer sleeves. Also, behind you in the shelves I don’t see a lot of outer sleeves.
So jealous, Ænema is my favorite Tool record
No album is worth very much. But some people clearly feel otherwise. Fun video!
The value is dictated by the market.
The value of money itself is arbitrary too !!!!!! Omg Mind blown.
Thanks for posting this video man! I love going record shopping. The most valuable record I got from my uncle. When I told him in high school my favorite band was sonic youth. He gave me his special edition 2lp on orange vinyl wrapped in cloth with hand prints on it, REM unplugged 4lp(bought it new) tales of terror's LP. I love going to see live shows more now so I've been collecting live bootlegs in any forms 😍
If you are ever in the Colorado area check out wax trax, black and read, independent records and twist n shout.
I’m shocked by the amount of money some of my records have become worth, but that certainly doesn’t stop me from playing them. My most prized records have a personal story attached to them which makes em worth a lot to me at least.
thats the reason I will never sell any of them
I have a special edition 'School's Out' with underwear worn by Alice back in his boozing days, with enough DNA to clone Vincent Fournier when the technology becomes affordable.
Just an attempt at humour. Cool video but I wanted to bring up high prices at some auctions, leading to some silly asking prices. Popsike shows radically different prices for the same pressings. So discogs highest is not only non-representative of going rates for many titles, but the average gets distorted as well, I think, leading people to expect three figure sums for popular records which aren't particularly rare.
There's a lot of luck with auctioning anything. High end fine art runs the gamut, and sometimes everyone is thrilled by what was bid, other times surprised by lower winning bids. I bring this up, because often enough the startlingly high price of some rare records comes from 1 auction with two well off bidders in a war for the item.
Also, I think a lot of recent releases that are 'manufactured rare' (i.e. limited colours of vinyl) are probably being hoarded by collectors and kept sealed and in mint, unplayed condition. So I'd hesitate to drop serious money on some of those mid and late 1990's albums. I'm not trying to sound like a know it all, just adding my two cents, which may be worth up to 1.02$ at auction. Plus 30$ shipping.
I just hope to get lucky and find things for cheap. I don't ever pay extremely high prices, that seems to take the fun out of it.
if there are people who exist who will pay ridiculous prices FOR ANYTHING then the last person who should be ridiculed is the person who sold said item. Caveat Emptor anyone ? Unknowingly buying something worthless, however unfair, and "fault" have long been thrown in the lap of the buyer. It's a nasty business especially if the product is a necessity (eg. medication) but if the product is something as superfluous as an album, then dude, lumpy gravy.
The end is the best. "Oh and that one too..." haha. Subscribed--I think you may have inspired me to start up a channel during this lockdown. Been collecting for 30yrs or so. Heck why not? Great video!
You should!
I had that very jukebox, but gave it to a friend. How cool to see it! Love your video.
I've had it for a few years and love the look and sound. I need to show it with the light on.
Humble Pie "Rockin' The Fillmore."
I don’t know how many times I have bought SMOKIN’. Vinyl, 8-Track, Cassette and now on my iPhone. What a great band and a raw, rockin album!
Peaches Records . Memories of the record Supermarket on the BLVD in Phila .
numan is very collectable,,,,
On my copy of Schools Out, bought in 1972, the cover open up like s desk and it has the pencils and erasers and ruler and the panties. Those are the high price ones.
I found a bootleg for Temple of the Dog in Dresden, didn’t realise it was a bootleg, sounds tragic. Then in my local store I found an original and couldn’t believe it was being sold in its excellent condition for just £20. Sounds wayyyy better and I consider myself lucky as hell to get it for that cheap.
I'm still on the fence with Discog. Record stores I've been to recently seem to just take the high end price and use it as their price point. The most valuable piece in my collection would be Discord #2 SOA No Policy EP. Nice video!!
Thanks! There's a makeshift record store in this area that actually has a sign that reads "All prices based on Discogs". I thought "thanks for the warning", looked through a couple bins and left.
@@RobertFithen It is a great way to log your collection, I won't argue that. I worked in a record store for a while during the 90's and wish I wasn't only buying punk/garage music!!🤣
My gorilla biscuits 7" went for $6,000 !
@@kensims4086 Holy s##t!! Yeah, I'd be parting ways with any piece of vinyl I own if someone was going to pay that much for it. What 7" was it?
Mine is Black Flag's first 7" Nervous Breakdown. Paid $110.00 years ago and now it's $900.00 to $1400.00 on the high side depending on condition and whatnot.
Awesome! Yeah that’s a good one!
Mike Bergmann damn thats crazy.
Hard to believe that in the 70's here in New Orleans we had Peaches, the Mushroom and Leisure Landing among several other record shops!
I think my most valuable record is PJ Harvey's Stories From The City Stories From The Sea. The Cure's Wish too. Nice video.
I have Bohemian Rhapsody single in a blue Vinyl.
One album I’ve always wanted on vinyl was Toadies’ Rubberneck but there’s only one copy for sale on discogs and it’s $300. That’s a hard no.
Reissue coming soon!!
A Wee Tease of the Butcher Cover... nice!
Have you considered doing a CD version of this? I would definitely enjoy it.
the 3 hits from hell!!! omg!
I've had the the temple of the dog reissue for at least 2 years.
Me too. With the second disc with the logo pressing on the b side. Not the purple one thoug
Great tee shirt. I remember Peaches Records store very well.
The Temple of the Dog album was re-released in gatefold/double/180 gram. It’s a 20 anniversary release. Sounds amazing.
I used to have AIC’s self titled also. You made me sad showing me it’s worth so much. I didn’t sell it. It was stolen.
Awwwww
Funny how expensive some 7” records are.
To be honest i had no clou about what some records are "worth" meanwhile in my collection
before i discovered Discogs. And the funny thing is most of them i found in bargain bins of
large supermarkets or 2nd hand stores in the mid to late eighties,when the CD was on the rise.
Meanwhile most of them had cd reissiues or more recent even "audiophile" vinyl reissiues,but
some dont. Well,in my experience the most rare records - at least in the musical spectrum im
interested in - dont sell for top dollar because they are to unknown.
Same with me. I just started entering my 50 year collection of vinyl and CD's into discogs. I have a lot of early punk albums like Circle Jerks, DOA, Black Flag, etc. that I bought for 4 or 5 bucks new on release and other artists that really weren't on peoples radar back in the late 70's/early 80's. I keep calling my son into the room when I show him what they're "supposed" to be worth.
I had a collection of about 250 lps, soft rock, 80's, jazz, latin, salsa, ballads, but during hurricane Irma all of them were flooded. I dont know if it worth keeping them. A part of me died with the flood.
I'm always worried something like that will happen to my collection.
My best friend had the Beatles butcher cover album. Her storage got rained on and it ruined all her records. 😭
Peaches! Bought a lot of great vinyl there in the 70s
