Edit: I seem to recall something about the VU music being released?

it was seeded at DIME a few months ago. I believe it's the same one. The seeder remarked that no one should have to pay thousands for it.

I also snatched a '58 Flatt & Scruggs soundboard & the '49 John Coltrane with the Navy Band that were seeded recently.

There is a "klang" box set of 4 LP's by Kraftwerk on ebay which says is one of only 200 made and its not much coin. Maybe its new.

Probably the shining score by wendy carlos. I don't collect but that's a really really hard one. I really want to find that one in some format.

this one is super rare too

I have that Music To Grow Plants LP! Got it for 25 cents.

We have The Shining soundtrack on original LP at my work. It's not that expensive and it's a nice copy.
You can PM if you want the hookup.

the sex pistols were signed to a&m, they'd just recorded "god save the queen" but the label dropped them before the single was released..

the vinyl was already pressed, but they decided to destroy the copies..
a handful remains intact, going for a lot of money..

A very enlightening thread, thanks to the people who posted, real good read. Savage Clone has the most enviable job on the planet; and the VU vinyl porkmarras linked to looks incredible. :)

I have the Gun Club - Fire Of Love on blue vinly limited to 3000 copies. That's about the rarest shit I own, and Ciccone Youth on Blast First LP..

I'm more into rare jazz, soul, reggae vinyl. For instance on that list of records to look out for: any James Brown on King records, Miles Davis - Pangaea, Cecil Taylor - Spring of Two Blue J's, Bag's Groove, and atari said it best with the Parker as Sadik Hakim.
