Might be wrong but I'm pretty sure no more than 10, remember seeing an old forum from 2013 saying that there was 8 or so. Would the label or camp have any more of these in the vault do you think?

Hypothetically you see the CD Red hand cover for the cheapest you've ever seen it which is still ridiculous money, what do you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I don't really need two copies, I paid about $150 US for mine but if I saw another one for say, $50, I'd grab it. I think the days of expecting $500 for a Red Hand copy are long gone, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them for $200-300 either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen it for around 200 US, 150 maybe, but to anyone who paid 500 they must have lost their mind on the highway on 65. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you see it for 200 you could probably talk the seller down to 150 or less. You should at least try for 100-150. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiff Competition Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) My rarest and most collectible album is probably my white label promo of KISS' first album. It was sent out as a promo a few months before the actual release of the album in early '74. some other rare ones are live like a suicide, live era, subhuman race, kills at third man records (attendee version), a couple jack white tri-color singles, etc...

Swedish Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Probably my 2001 press of Ozzy's Down To Earth album, I had 2 copies at one time but sold it way to cheap to a record shop in town... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janrichmond Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I have some old punk stuff, Anti Nowhere league, the damned, Clash, Peter and the Test tube babies and the Oi! compilation albums plus a few hundred more. The last vinyl i bought was AFD and the Cult-Electric which we got when they were released. They are all in the loft and haven't been played since...early 90s i guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't like the 80's Clash so much Sandinista was a big sprawling sort of thing weren’t it? I adore it myself but its very hard to get to grips with, triple album, all them genres. You should give it a re-listen though. Combat Rock I guess is...yeah, its a funny one. The Clash to me are like the air I breathe, each album is fantastic but I can see why someone might find the last two albums troublesome.

luciusfunk Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 According to discogs, barring any box sets, it would be Raven Songs 101 by Kevin Max and Adrian Belew. Box sets would be The Lot by Roger Taylor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
