Great video. The change is from the old shows is transitioning nicely. Top 5 rarest in my collection (no particular order): 1. Against Me!'s s/t first EP signed by Laura Jane Grace 2. All 3 Choking Victim 7-inches 3. NOFX 'Stoke Extinguisher' 7-inch Fat Wreck Chord store edition signed by Melvin 4. PEARS 'Go To Prison' white pressing from Anxious and Angry signed by the band 5.Direct Hit! 'Domesplitter' white with red splatter signed by the band.
I have Toe's album "The Book About My Idle Plot On A Vague Anxiety" on the smoke blue variant and I'm in love with it. I've also got an original pressing of the Trouble Man soundtrack!
I have a test pressing of fleet foxes helplessness blues on gold vinyl, it's the only one on earth that's not black or clear, and it was accidentally made. I don't even know how much it would be worth
I have a hand-stamped copy of FKA twigs' record EP1. It has sold for over $300 on Discogs. I got it signed by twigs 2 years ago, so it's probably worth more now.
I don't have many rare records (I'm 14 so don't have that much £ to spend on vinyl) but I have a few ltd releases (the most limited I have is to 75 copies) and some Record Store Day stuff. Also I have The Who Live At Leeds 1st pressing with all the original inserts (posters, lyric sheets etc) which I got for about £50 but I've seen some around without all the stuff inside be sold for around £120 so that's really cool.
Favorite rare/most valuable album in my collection - Sun Kil Moon's "Ghosts of the Great Highway." I picked it up at retail back in '03 or '04. Didn't realize how rare it was at the time. Maybe paid $30 for it. Not just a rare/valuable record but one of my favorite albums. Also, have original Gold Standard Labs pressings of De-Loused in the Comatorium & Frances the Mute.
My "rare" records in my collection are probably Ritual Day's Sky Lake on blue vinyl, Be Persecuted's End Leaving, and Sigh's Imaginary Sonicscape boxset on green/orange swirl colored vinyl.
I have a NM copy of "In their own time" by Legend. I am one of 10 people on discogs that has it. Last sold for $572.29 a few months ago, 23 of June 2020. It was NM. Current sellers are asking as high as $820. I got mine for 99 cents at a Goodwill only two years ago, when I was 16. That oughta piss off some older collectors, haha!
If you want expensive vinyls, there's these, and then there's Skinny Puppy's Last Rights 2009 vinyl reissue. You'll easily expect to pay $400-$500 for one in good condition. A holy grail for industrial albums. If only I had the money to buy one. Really, a lot of Skinny Puppy albums are worth a lot on vinyl.
well, I have two that I think are my most rare. 1. Test pressing of Supertramp's breakfast in America. It's never been sold on discogs and eBay had a few averaging 200-500 dollars. 2. An original mono copy of Introducing the Beatles. Yes, I have a REAL copy of this. I took the authentication test by the fan website and everything checked out. George's shadow, a bright purple section of the label, "the beatles" subtitle above the record hole, it all checked out! If it were in near mint condition, it would be 2000-4000 dollars. Alas, mine is in rough shape. but even though it is, it can still go for 500-800 dollars to the right collector. Btw, great video! I love what you are doing with the channel. Can't wait to see what your discogs profile entails :)
i have the record store day exclusive of melanie martinez's dollhouse ep (out of 3000, numebered, baby blue/baby pink split), evanescence's fallen 10th anniversary release on dark red/purple and sky ferreira's night time my time on black vinyl and the rsd picture disc :) those are the only 'rare' records i own really haha. great video!
The most "rarest" record I have is the Mondo release of The Last Of Us 4X LP box set. Being that its one of my most favorite games of all time, I jumped on the Preorder for it and got it for about $70. The median on Discogs is $155, with the highest being sold for $221.
His version he is selling is a rare wooden box version /50, but that price is still insanity! They did just reissue it, so make sure your copy is the original!
my rarest ones are probably the postal service - give up on white vinyl. its a double LP. g n r lies original pressing from 1987 (both of these are out of print) and a very hard one to find by a 60s band called love - forever changes. original 1967 copy
You might want to check out the Luke Cage Soundtrack coming out on "powerman yellow" vinyl if you're into marvel. I think it's a limited pressing out for pre sale atm
I have 2 colored versions of pardon my French by chunk, no captain chunk! And they're medium is like 50-60 bucks :) both were limited at 300 and they didn't press a black version.
I think the rarest one I own is Panic At The Disco's Pretty Odd Box set. It's currently on Discogs for $150. I also have Something Corporate's Leaving Through The Window on red vinyl which is also $150 on Discogs. I got both of them when they came out so I only had to pay retail price for them.
i found a record called affinity at a garage sale in the box of records i bought, the columbia edition to unfortunately not as rare as the UK release but still nice!
Got a few but I have a mint copy of Marilyn Manson-Lest We Forget which sells for over £200! I also have the only 3 test pressings of The Wildhearts-So Into You and Vanilla Radio!
I have a question- I have a chuck berry greatest hits vinyl that was printed in 1978, I believe it's not out of boring. How much could one fetus h for tbat( hypothetically I would never sell my collection)
Believe it or not, picked mine up at Permanent Records (you know the place) for $150 and thought to myself, "no way, there has to be something wrong with it". Checked out ok. I refuse to play it yet - might not at all. I also own an unopened Pet Sounds, first stereo pressing, but I know that one sounds not as great as it should.
My rarest: Sigur Ros second album, first pressing, $97 Daughters- you won't get what you want (clear with black smoke) $88 U.s. maple- long hair in 3 stages first press $89 Polvo- today's active lifestyles merge first press $103
My "rarities" are an original press of beach boys pet sounds, twenty one pilots lclp, and a number of electronic and indie artists hand numbered albums (mendition of the quay, explorers, etc...)
i got a microphones glow pt 2 first press that currently goes for 80, drive like jehu yank crime teal and purple press that goes for 120, white stripes elephant first press on white and red vinyl goes for 100 i think, super fury animals phantom power goes for 106, and few others like some punk first pressings
UK first press of Zeppelin IV, Killer's Hot Fuss blue vinyl with an unworn promo shirt, Counting Crows August & Everything After 1994 Colombian pressing,
Here's my Top 5 : 5. Weezer - Green Album (Transluscent Green 1st press /???) Median $45 / High $65 4. The Ataris - So Long, Astoria (Black 1st press /???) Median $50 / High $95 3. The Receiving End of Sirens - Between The Heart & The Synapse (Black 1st press /???) Median $60 / $100 {1 for sale now for $100} 2. Band of Skulls - Baby Darling Doll Face Honey (Black 1st press /???) Median $71 / High $100 1. Weezer - White Album (Tri-Color 1st press /400) Median $130 / High $150 No neat stories on any of these, but i do feel awfully lucky to be one of the 400 who got the tri-color of Weezer's White Album. Just happened to be awake at midnight when the band announced the new album/pre-order. I pre-ordered so fast and about fainted when i got the email that I was one of the first 400!
-The Beatles' "White Album" DMM 80's German Press on White Vinyl ~ at least $130 -Shiptoshore Phono Co.'s "Mother 2/Earthbound Soundtrack" on "Ness" blue/yellow split vinyl ~ has never sold on discogs, but the other variants are up for anywhere from $73 to $110! -Weezer's "White Album" tri-color split, sold out within minutes ~ at least $103 -The Strokes' "Room on Fire" Newbury Comics exclusive Black/Gold Split ~ at least $75
My most rare record is either Brand New YFW on white or the first press of NFG Sticks and Stones on red. Discogs doesn't have a listing for it and the last sold on Popsike was $250. Also, I love the new direction of the channel, keep it up.
Cool video, I want that Sun Kil Moon :P I guess as far as my own rare records goes, I had to check my discogs list and it seems The Wrens - The Meadowlands increased in price... median is $114.65. I paid $20 a year or so ago. also have sexwitch which is $88.31 median, wow! I don't know how much it cost before since I got it as a gift. also have some mondo; Studio Ghibli being the most pricey one, median $142.50. I used to also have the mondo Jurassic Park on amber vinyl, but gave it to someone as a gift last xmas, heh
Hey Matt! I've heard some awesome music on the radio (I listen to mostly KEXP and KUTX online) called shoegaze. Before recently, I really didn't know what shoegaze was. Could you maybe do a video on shoegaze music and suggest some places to start if you like that type of music? Thanks!
Love me some shoegaze. We talk about shoegaze a lot in various videos throughout the channel's history, but I'd love to make a video about it specifically.
My rarest record l bought back in the early 90's is a bootleg concert of Iron Maiden's 'Seventh Tour of a Seventh Tour' called 'Seven Deadly Sins', double clear vinyl LP"s, $63.99.
I bought a copy of Tom Petty -Wildflowers on eBay for $200 at that time I had never seen one under $400. On Discogs you can buy one for $350 or higher!
NO ORDER: Death Grips - "Government Plates" (paid only $24.99 when it was released) Death Grips - "Ex Military" (self-released original pressing) Panic! At the Disco - "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out" (gold vinyl) The Shining OST (Gold-stamped promo) Nine Inch Nails - "WITH_TEETH" Also, one I feel you'd appreciate: The Killers - Hot Fuss (box set edition, w/t-shirt.)
Nice!! I'm planning on picking up the Panic! repress from Hot Topic. I had that Hot Fuss version once upon a time but I think I traded it away at one point. Currently own the most recent UK repress, but that blue vinyl was aces.
Hi Matt. I think I have a valuable Vinyl boxset. Its a boxset of Jimi Hendrix Electric ladyland limited edition. its got the 3D nude ladies on box lid, its the 4 LP + 7" plus CD plus Poster and is numbered 89 0f 500 printed. Totally like new and sealed. What do you think ?
I am making this comment to help you so please don't take offense. You will diminish the monetary value of your records if you continue holding them pinched between two fingers as you pull the records out of their sleeve. The oils in your finger tips will embed into the grooves of the record and depending on how much oil you have in your fingers, the audio quality can be diminished or may cause skipping. Handle the records only by the sides without touching the surface of the record and by the label in the middle. I too am a record collector but my main purpose of record collection is the enjoyment of the music. My main purpose in record collection is not monetary gain.
Some of my most rare include: -Self Titled Mayday Parade ~$250-400 -Awake/Illenium ~$500+ -OG The Rising/Bruce Springsteen ~$200 -Rolling Papers/Wiz Khalifa ~$75-100 -Konvicted/Akon ~$75-100 -1995 Mint Jagged Little Pill/Alanis Morisette ~$100-150 -Move Along/All American Rejects ~$50 -Boys Like Girls Self Titled ~$100-125 -MTV plugged/Bruce Springsteen (Spain) ~$75-100 -Mint The Score/Fugees ~$100+ -Close the Distance/Go Radio ~$100+ -Everything in Transit/Jack’s Mannequin ~$100+ -Tha Carter IV/Lil Wayne $100+ -The Everglow/Mae $100 -Pink Friday/Nicki Minaj $100 -Billy Breathes/Phish $100 -Don’t You Fake It/Red Jumpsuit Apparatus $75-100 -Everything You Need/Slightly Stoopid $100 -Song In My Head/String Cheese Incident $75-100 -Unity/Trevor Hall $100-150 Deal or No Deal/Wiz Khalifa $75-100
Great sample based hip-hop from Guts www.discogs.com/sell/release/1323140?ev=rb it now sells for 200€ but that's only VG+ I've seen it go as high as 700€... but that was a while ago...and that may not represent the amount it sells for today.
I can't find among the leaves for less than $180+. I've bought it twice both around that range. Idk if I can stomach collecting his albums for a third time. It's just too much money .
The only albums of SKM that are moderately priced are Tiny Cities and Admiral. Both great albums. But the prices for ghosts, April, among and even benji are absurd. That's all that's relevant. I hate what he's done after Benji. One record I miss from my old collection was the vanilla sky soundtrack.. had the best thing kozelek's ever done on record. Also had McCartney's title track. Damn miss that one.
vinyl is just a medium and today many artists do their stuf digital... is there different approach to mastering? I mean specific mastering for vinyl format..I think if the mastering is one and only and is digital there is no logic getting it ot vinyl otherwise vinyl is the best choice out there.
I went shopping last week, at a local trader's market, and found my (second) rarest record. The Original Australian Cast Recording of Anything Goes from 1989. Paid $10 for it. So rare, in fact, that it ISN'T EVEN ON DISCOGS' DATABASE!!! The other rarest I own is a mint condition, once played (was unopened - silly me) Jesus Christ Superstar Original Concept Album, with Libretto, AND 2x ticket slips!
i have a original sun records Johnny Cash album from 1957 its a first pressing in mono and worth about 75 bucks right now i also have the first mofi dark side of the moon pressing not the repress that is worth from 200 to 250 bucks i have the mofi 24k version of the wall on cd worth 220 to 250 i have a second us pressing of dark side of the moon worth about 100 bucks i also have a second pressing of wish you were here worth about 100 bucks i have all the limited editions of jinjer a heavy metal core band metallica S&M 3 vinyl the doors mono box set marylin manson heaven up side down album idk why but on discogs its rare i got it brand new cheap i have the box set for metallica hardwired to self destruct the record store day version in a marble red pressing the pink pressing also for breast cancer awareness foundation all the vinyls are colored in the marble inlay look the box set has a third vinyl that has the song hardwired live for the first time ever played at the U.S. Bank Stadium i was there and seen it live so to have it on vinyl is pretty special.....slipknots debut album on vinyl from 1999 that i stumbled on in a small record store brand new and goes for big money now idk im like you the list goes on and on i have some rare 45s korns song here to stay only 5000 copies pressed on a 45 in blue vinyl i have to many vinyls also rare original tapes idk i try to stay away from remasters even though thats how i got into vinyl but i buy most every thing on discogs unless i see something in a vinyl store that i know is worth it and analog i have near the same audio set up as you i love pioneer equipment. oh i also have a promo signed copy of eddie money has the song baby hold on his self titled debut album was signed for some one that worked on the album so there is no other copy like that in the world......if you sell records on discogs let me know your user name i would like to take a look at what you got!
I wouldn't recommend anyone to use discogs for a credible valuation of their records. The users there tends to overvalue quite alot. Don't get me wrong I use discogs aswell, but I cross reference evey record I find that I'm interested in. Most times the records are found cheaper on for example eBay or a regular records store.
Reissues, bad sounding Coloured Vinyls ? Rare ? Wtf!! I own a lot from Vertigo , Uk First Presses. Lot of Progressive Rock and Beat. Not a lot under 200.- One of the best is a Cressida- Asylum. See my Collection on Discogs : da.tanzt.der.berner Maybe you will sell one from my searchlist. Peace
You are right my friend. I have too a lot of originals from sixties bands and Vertigo and the two Cressida albums. The friend on the video thinks that has rare records .O.K. id dont disagree but these bands he shows i dont believe they worth so much money.Anyway anyone is free to show what he owns. Peace.
i have 3 og Led Zeppelin albums and first US presses of In The Court Of The Crimson King, The Wall, and Close To The Edge. Apparently they're not that rare but I still treat them like my babies 😭💞
Anamanaguchi's Dawn Metropolis. I've had it for almost a year and it's only been played like twice. Also, I don't know if they're all that rare or not, but I order a lot from the web label Radiograffiti, and every time I order, I'm sent one or two test pressings of upcoming EP's. The EP's are super limited to begin with, usually about 300 records per EP. Still, though, it's kinda cool.
Great video. The change is from the old shows is transitioning nicely.

WHERE'S THE PICTURE
I have a helplesness blues white record that I think only got 200 prints. Have you heard of it? How much would you say its worth?
I have a hand-stamped copy of FKA twigs' record EP1. It has sold for over $300 on Discogs. I got it signed by twigs 2 years ago, so it's probably worth more now.
I don't have many rare records (I'm 14 so don't have that much £ to spend on vinyl) but I have a few ltd releases (the most limited I have is to 75 copies) and some Record Store Day stuff. Also I have The Who Live At Leeds 1st pressing with all the original inserts (posters, lyric sheets etc) which I got for about £50 but I've seen some around without all the stuff inside be sold for around £120 so that's really cool.
Favorite rare/most valuable album in my collection - Sun Kil Moon's "Ghosts of the Great Highway." I picked it up at retail back in '03 or '04. Didn't realize how rare it was at the time. Maybe paid $30 for it. Not just a rare/valuable record but one of my favorite albums. Also, have original Gold Standard Labs pressings of De-Loused in the Comatorium & Frances the Mute.
That Guster record is one of my favorites.
For sure. I just wish they'd press Goldfly already!
My "rare" records in my collection are probably Ritual Day's Sky Lake on blue vinyl, Be Persecuted's End Leaving, and Sigh's Imaginary Sonicscape boxset on green/orange swirl colored vinyl.
I have a NM copy of "In their own time" by Legend. I am one of 10 people on discogs that has it. Last sold for $572.29 a few months ago, 23 of June 2020. It was NM.

What's your Discogs username? Would love to see the complete collection.
Still working on updating my collection on there and stuff -- I'll make a post about it when it's ready to be seen :D
Soooo Discogs username so I can stalk your collection?
If you want expensive vinyls, there's these, and then there's Skinny Puppy's Last Rights 2009 vinyl reissue. You'll easily expect to pay $400-$500 for one in good condition. A holy grail for industrial albums. If only I had the money to buy one. Really, a lot of Skinny Puppy albums are worth a lot on vinyl.
very cool Matt!!!
How much would you say your whole collection costed
well, I have two that I think are my most rare. 1. Test pressing of Supertramp's breakfast in America. It's never been sold on discogs and eBay had a few averaging 200-500 dollars. 2. An original mono copy of Introducing the Beatles. Yes, I have a REAL copy of this. I took the authentication test by the fan website and everything checked out.

i have the record store day exclusive of melanie martinez's dollhouse ep (out of 3000, numebered, baby blue/baby pink split), evanescence's fallen 10th anniversary release on dark red/purple and sky ferreira's night time my time on black vinyl and the rsd picture disc :) those are the only 'rare' records i own really haha. great video!
The most "rarest" record I have is the Mondo release of The Last Of Us 4X LP box set. Being that its one of my most favorite games of all time, I jumped on the Preorder for it and got it for about $70. The median on Discogs is $155, with the highest being sold for $221.
The rarest one I have is "Dear" by Keaton Henson. It's being sold for $860 on Discogs right now. I got it for $20 a couple of months ago
His version he is selling is a rare wooden box version /50, but that price is still insanity! They did just reissue it, so make sure your copy is the original!
my rarest ones are probably the postal service - give up on white vinyl. its a double LP. g n r lies original pressing from 1987 (both of these are out of print) and a very hard one to find by a 60s band called love - forever changes. original 1967 copy
You might want to check out the Luke Cage Soundtrack coming out on "powerman yellow" vinyl if you're into marvel. I think it's a limited pressing out for pre sale atm
You have a weird but interesting taste. I will check out those albums. Thanks.
I have 2 colored versions of pardon my French by chunk, no captain chunk! And they're medium is like 50-60 bucks :) both were limited at 300 and they didn't press a black version.
I think the rarest one I own is Panic At The Disco's Pretty Odd Box set. It's currently on Discogs for $150. I also have Something Corporate's Leaving Through The Window on red vinyl which is also $150 on Discogs. I got both of them when they came out so I only had to pay retail price for them.
i found a record called affinity at a garage sale in the box of records i bought, the columbia edition to unfortunately not as rare as the UK release but still nice!
Got a few but I have a mint copy of Marilyn Manson-Lest We Forget which sells for over £200! I also have the only 3 test pressings of The Wildhearts-So Into You and Vanilla Radio!
my rarest is probably The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place by Explosions In The Sky, but the etched side arrived scratched :/

I own a copy of a M/M Funkadelic Maggotbrain, 1st pressing. In that condition, it goes for about $300 now. Highest it ever sold $221.
Color me jealous. Been looking for an early pressing of it for a reasonable price for a while. I hear the 4 Men With Beards repress sounds like crap.
Believe it or not, picked mine up at Permanent Records (you know the place) for $150 and thought to myself, "no way, there has to be something wrong with it". Checked out ok. I refuse to play it yet - might not at all. I also own an unopened Pet Sounds, first stereo pressing, but I know that one sounds not as great as it should.
Great video.

Sigur Ros second album, first pressing, $97
Daughters- you won't get what you want (clear with black smoke) $88

UK first press of Zeppelin IV, Killer's Hot Fuss blue vinyl with an unworn promo shirt, Counting Crows August & Everything After 1994 Colombian pressing,
Here's my Top 5 :
5. Weezer - Green Album (Transluscent Green 1st press /???) Median $45 / High $65
4. The Ataris - So Long, Astoria (Black 1st press /???) Median $50 / High $95
3. The Receiving End of Sirens - Between The Heart & The Synapse (Black 1st press /???) Median $60 / $100 {1 for sale now for $100}

1. Weezer - White Album (Tri-Color 1st press /400) Median $130 / High $150
No neat stories on any of these, but i do feel awfully lucky to be one of the 400 who got the tri-color of Weezer's White Album. Just happened to be awake at midnight when the band announced the new album/pre-order. I pre-ordered so fast and about fainted when i got the email that I was one of the first 400!
I think the "rarest" record I own is Deathconsciousness by Have a Nice Life. It currently goes for $75-100 on discogs.
Fantastic record. I own it myself :)

Bought two original loveless albums over $200 each. Saetia tour edition lp. 100 made. Bought it on impulse for $350
My most rare record is either Brand New YFW on white or the first press of NFG Sticks and Stones on red. Discogs doesn't have a listing for it and the last sold on Popsike was $250.
Also, I love the new direction of the channel, keep it up.
Is that the repress cover on white, or the original chess cover?
It's the first press chess cover. I bought it from their site when it first came out.
My jealousy level has peaked. One of my holy grail records for sure.
I OWN 997 VINYL LP RECORDS in longbeach Mississippi!
Cool video, I want that Sun Kil Moon :P I guess as far as my own rare records goes, I had to check my discogs list and it seems The Wrens - The Meadowlands increased in price... median is $114.65. I paid $20 a year or so ago. also have sexwitch which is $88.31 median, wow! I don't know how much it cost before since I got it as a gift. also have some mondo; Studio Ghibli being the most pricey one, median $142.50. I used to also have the mondo Jurassic Park on amber vinyl, but gave it to someone as a gift last xmas, heh
I had The Wrens once and I sold it for like $50 which was incredibly stupid. I hope it gets a repress, such an amazing album.
Hey Matt! I've heard some awesome music on the radio (I listen to mostly KEXP and KUTX online) called shoegaze. Before recently, I really didn't know what shoegaze was. Could you maybe do a video on shoegaze music and suggest some places to start if you like that type of music? Thanks!
Love me some shoegaze. We talk about shoegaze a lot in various videos throughout the channel's history, but I'd love to make a video about it specifically.
You're one of my favorite RUclipsrs; I've found such amazing music watching your videos. Keep it up!!

The Shining OST (Gold-stamped promo)
Nine Inch Nails - "WITH_TEETH"
Also, one I feel you'd appreciate:
The Killers - Hot Fuss (box set edition, w/t-shirt.)
Nice!! I'm planning on picking up the Panic! repress from Hot Topic. I had that Hot Fuss version once upon a time but I think I traded it away at one point. Currently own the most recent UK repress, but that blue vinyl was aces.
Some of my most valuable records are out of print coheed and Cambria records, and records only released on tour and signed
Totally Cool!
I have many rare unreleased depeche mode live performance test pressings all worth $100+ that I found in a charity shop for $1 each
My ratest. Duran Duran the wedding album, new order substance and the far cry 5 xmondo soundtrack
My rarest album is Flying up through the Sky by the Oxfords (Union Jack label)
On my wish list of rare records :
Panic at the Disco: Pretty. Odd. Box Set
I recommend checking out 60 Rpm Reviews. They make grey short reviews.
Rarest I own is Esthero "Breath From Another" on blue vinyl. I think I paid $70 for it.

Seems to be worth between 40 and 70.
You have the wrong copy. mines the 4 lp issue in boxset, not 2x lp in sleeve.
Damn, I can't even find a listing for it!
I'm so jealous of that GOTG vinyl, damn
I am making this comment to help you so please don't take offense. You will diminish the monetary value of your records if you continue holding them pinched between two fingers as you pull the records out of their sleeve. The oils in your finger tips will embed into the grooves of the record and depending on how much oil you have in your fingers, the audio quality can be diminished or may cause skipping. Handle the records only by the sides without touching the surface of the record and by the label in the middle.
I too am a record collector but my main purpose of record collection is the enjoyment of the music. My main purpose in record collection is not monetary gain.

-Self Titled Mayday Parade ~$250-400

www.discogs.com/sell/release/1323140?ev=rb
it now sells for 200€ but that's only VG+ I've seen it go as high as 700€...
but that was a while ago...and that may not represent the amount it sells for today.
I can't find among the leaves for less than $180+. I've bought it twice both around that range. Idk if I can stomach collecting his albums for a third time. It's just too much money .
The only albums of SKM that are moderately priced are Tiny Cities and Admiral. Both great albums. But the prices for ghosts, April, among and even benji are absurd. That's all that's relevant. I hate what he's done after Benji. One record I miss from my old collection was the vanilla sky soundtrack.. had the best thing kozelek's ever done on record. Also had McCartney's title track. Damn miss that one.
my rarest record is the 1st press on clear of State Champs first EP Overslept
My most rare record is frank ocean-endless which goes for around $150,I paid full price rip
Rarest for me is an original 1956 press of Elvis Presley. Cover is practically perfect, record is visibly fine but played to hell.
vinyl is just a medium and today many artists do their stuf digital... is there different approach to mastering? I mean specific mastering for vinyl format..I think if the mastering is one and only and is digital there is no logic getting it ot vinyl otherwise vinyl is the best choice out there.
I have an original orange pressing of King Gizzard's float along - fill your lungs. only 500 were pressed and they sell for about 200
So jealous! I want all of KG's catalogue... getting harder to find.
I'm from Melbourne so I see their stuff around occasionally! i'll be sure to let you know if anything pops up
I went shopping last week, at a local trader's market, and found my (second) rarest record. The Original Australian Cast Recording of Anything Goes from 1989. Paid $10 for it. So rare, in fact, that it ISN'T EVEN ON DISCOGS' DATABASE!!! The other rarest I own is a mint condition, once played (was unopened - silly me) Jesus Christ Superstar Original Concept Album, with Libretto, AND 2x ticket slips!
Luke Bartlett I've got a weird original pressing jazz album. Isn't on Discogs either

Have John Frusciante-The Empyrean, and Inside of Emptiness.
Just got a kiddo by Jessie reyez autographed record 😍😍
No ones jealous of you bud.. clam down lol
I wouldn't recommend anyone to use discogs for a credible valuation of their records. The users there tends to overvalue quite alot. Don't get me wrong I use discogs aswell, but I cross reference evey record I find that I'm interested in. Most times the records are found cheaper on for example eBay or a regular records store.
Those are all new records, not smart to spend to much on those.
Yet many, many do.
Reissues, bad sounding Coloured Vinyls ? Rare ? Wtf!!
I own a lot from Vertigo , Uk First Presses. Lot of Progressive Rock and Beat.
Not a lot under 200.-
One of the best is a Cressida- Asylum.
See my Collection on Discogs : da.tanzt.der.berner
Maybe you will sell one from my searchlist. Peace
You are right my friend. I have too a lot of originals from sixties bands and Vertigo and the two Cressida albums. The friend on the video thinks that has rare records .O.K. id dont disagree but these bands he shows i dont believe they worth so much money.Anyway anyone is free to show what he owns. Peace.
your titles of your videos are misleading ,this is the bottom of the barrel when it comes to rare records.
i have 3 og Led Zeppelin albums and first US presses of In The Court Of The Crimson King, The Wall, and Close To The Edge. Apparently they're not that rare but I still treat them like my babies 😭💞
coolbean would LOVE an OG The Wall album, you have good taste my friend
You really need to go back to school and do your history and what records are really worth
Anamanaguchi's Dawn Metropolis. I've had it for almost a year and it's only been played like twice.
Also, I don't know if they're all that rare or not, but I order a lot from the web label Radiograffiti, and every time I order, I'm sent one or two test pressings of upcoming EP's. The EP's are super limited to begin with, usually about 300 records per EP. Still, though, it's kinda cool.
