Can’t believe the value of the Beatle LP’s, since I bought the mono and stereo when they were first released in 1967. I’ve not payed any money on records for over 30 years, so my collection of 2,000 or so albums and probably over 1,000 singles, going back to 1956 included 78’s maybe worth something, but I have no intention of selling them, sorry!
Nice! I’d love to hear that Wish You Were Here I bet that sounds awesome!
Just had a look and my top 4 (and 7 out of the top 10 most valuable) are box sets so I’ve excluded them altogether.
1. The Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers.
2. The Rolling Stones - Let it Bleed (mono).
3. Sex Pistols - Never mind the bollocks (no track names on rear of sleeve).
4. Pink Floyd - DSOTM.
5. PiL - Metal Box.
I have a copy of sergeant pepper lonely hearts club band . Rolling stones with a cover where they look like a bunch of high school kids. Has little red rooster on it . Got some other Beatles and rolling stones. Been buying records from strange places for a few years now and have maybe around 4000 lot of African artists too. About 1 euro average I have been buying. Told people I take any records so yes I have 78s and lots of 45s but few covers am in the kingdom of Eswatini. Going to post videos soon
Completely agree with DSOTM its probably the "best" vinyl copy you should own probably the last time the analogue tapes will be used as James Guthrie dropped them into digital not long after Doug Sax and Kevin Gray did an excellent job on it. They had a good opportunity on the 50th anniversary to give it another outing but the release is just a cash grab in my eyes...shame
Congratulations on the views. Well deserved..
Thanks
I am no expert, but wouldn't be so quick to discount the Beatles stereo mix as a throw away effort. Stereo was new at the time and mono was the established tried and true format. I consider it reasonable to think the beatles took great care with the mono mix, and since it established their sonic priorities, these known priorities were understood and applied to the stereo mix by experts in the field who worked on the project at the same time, in the same location. There was no reason to do double work, and I would expect they had many other pressing demands on their time.
I don't believe a slap dash or uncaring approach was applied by professionals of such stature that they were selected for mixing an important product, and they just decided to phone it in just because the format was not mono. I suspect a lot of the clamor for a mono mix is snob appeal, and the implied credibility of having something only a collector would bother with, since today most people own only a stereo playback system. Everybody wants to be special , it's the human condition. If one or two slight artifacts are different, between mono and stereo records, to a guy like me, it usually doesn't change the artistic statement of the music.
It is true that in the early stereo days , some stereo mixes were whacked out sonically , in the mistaken belief that customers wanted to hear a hard left and right effect, so they got their moneys worth with the new format. The beatles stereo mixes are not that, but it is reported there are differences , I would guess more so on some of the tracks where the sound effects run around the room, as on the white album. I am just not hard core beatles collector enough to care, although I did buy every album they made, and one of the collection albums.
Everybody loves lists…lol. Enjoying,
Gotta love a list
Okay all ready , took over 3 minutes just to Get on with the music . Love to see other people's valuable records .
Didn't know there was a time limit
A modern reissue of sgt p going for more than an original? Mad.
I know, but the mono reissues aren't pressed anymore so they've sky rocketed
The price of vinyl at the moment is frankly a joke. I think most, if not all collectors are being ripped off. I had all Beatles Mono UK originals in the 90s and they were £15-20ish. Even allowing for inflation that's around £38-45 now. Its been beyond fetishized.
Mike from the In Groove Records had a couple of those Pink Floyd DSOTM 30 anniversary records on what not auctions. I believe one was sealed one wasn’t. The sealed one went for over $500 and the open one at least $300.
I paid £60 for my sealed copy about 18 months ago
That WYWH is a beautiful copy.
The most expensive albums in my collection are.deep purple .shades of deep purple 1968 mono copy ..the clash first album red sticker copy ..
What's the most expensive album you did have, prior to the sale. I've looked and it really does suck, but it is what it is :)
A2/B2 of DSOTM, but you know what it isn't worth it, my 30th anniversary is good and so too is the recent remaster, I don't see the reasoning about the prices on what are not technically rare albums.
Before I sold my original collection in the early 2000's I was lucky enough to have a number of super rare records. The Jewel of my collection was an original Joy division ideal for Living 7"
@@suffolkaudiophile Really, amazing what a piece of history. I've seen it twice in record shops in Manchester im the late 80's and even then it was lots of ££..
@@dazaaw I never played it... It sounded awful. I have the recent RSD 12" version and sounds fantastic. The original is a conversation piece and in my mind now a total waste of money. If I won the lottery I wouldn't buy it again
Hmmmm….good question….hard to say. I had all sorts of vinyl and forget a lot of the ones I had. I also never got into researching the unique minor details that could mean the prices rocket up. I was silly like that and lost out on selling off lots of vintage Star Wars and Spidey comics. Some of my rap records I sold off are now with crazy money. Those old classic rap records are now very collectible.
My Beatles records were probably the most valuable. I sold my entire Prince and Bowie off within a year of each passing.
Most expensive album I’ve got is Micheal Jackson history past and present 1st pressing still sealed
Beatles albums ? Really? You can pick those up fairly cheaply if you go to record shops, I'm not joking, here in Melbourne there would be about 100 record shops so there is a fair bit of competition,I reckon I could get 2014 magical mystery tour for about fifty bucks Australian.
I will go and see how long it takes me
Good luck with that... please report back your findings 😁 and don't forget, were talking about the 2014 MONO reissues
Vinyl prices are silly. Rich geezers with too much cash sitting around. Hi-Fi dealer I know said during covid his profits went through the roof.
I sold off my vinyl when I was skint for peanuts 10 years ago. Sad times they were.
How much was your 30th anniversary DSOTM??
I paid around £60 sealed
Bargain of the decade!!!!
Interesting , anyone out there got any idea if a first run copy of Faust , with transparent vinyl, transparent sleeve with x-ray hand and also transparent lyric sheets .
Any comments welcome .
According to discogs, nm record and nm sleeve... you're looking around £180
@@suffolkaudiophile thanx
Can anyone tell me the present day price of Electric Ladyland ,London 1968, Naked women cover? Sorry Jimi..

Hi just wanted to ask your opinion on bi wiring speakers have you tried or do you know is there any difference
Hi Simon, By saying Bi-Wiring i assume you mean Bi-amping by adding a separate amp for the bass and a separate amp for the treble on the speakers. Although my speakers are capable of bi-amping I've never done it as I don't have a second amplifier. I've heard it does make a difference. I can highly recommend checking out PS Audios channel. Paul McCann is a font of knowledge on all things high end audio and has produced a number of videos about bi-amping or bi-wiring. Here's one to get you started ruclips.net/video/aGm0B-_CejY/видео.html
@@suffolkaudiophile thanks I take a look
Pink floyd dsotm which copy is the best
The original A2/B2 pressing with solid prism on the label is the best.... 2nd best is probably either the 30th anniversary pressing or the second pressing
@@suffolkaudiophile cool I have original
@@simonkenny8924 nice... does it have the solid prism?... if so, does Money skip??
@@suffolkaudiophile no unfortunately but it’s got original poster and stickers , I wish it was I do have first pressing of the wall, final cut and animals n preordered 2018 version
Has anyone ever commented that you look like Roger Daltrey...?
Eeeerrrrr... no, not really, but thanks anyway.. I'll take that as a compliment... I've had Rodney Trotter though
