Brag About Your Vinyl Collection


There are a couple of posts for listing your favorite albums, but what about those albums that you've collected simply for value or rarity? Here is your chance to tell about some of the rare and valuable records in your collection, where you found them, how you store/display them, etc.

"How can the record Bad by Michael Jackson be rare. They made plenty of copies. Just because your friends don't have it doesn't make it rare."
'Cause most folks used them for skeet!
I have two one-of-a-kind Lp's. Sheffield Direct-to-disk Lincoln Mayorga. One album is comprised of two side A's back to back, the other is two side B's. Don't ask me why I did it... it was 1973 and I was still in high school working at the pressing plant where they were made. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Guaranteed to be the only copies like this in the entire world. Also have a really cool "Tubular Bells" picture disk I'm really fond of. Clear vinyl is the ultimate in quietness, btw.
Have two copies of Amused To Death also. One still sealed. Original issues, not the new 180Gram reissues which I'm not even sure if they are legit. A few other of my PF vinyl rarities:

WYWH Nautalis Super Disc
A Saucerful of Secrets mint US first press
Final Cut Mastersound DM
PRos and Cons Mastersound DM
Rick Wright Wet Dream Mastersound 76

Have tons more floyd vinyl, but those are my standouts.

And for the ultimate in Analog Audiophile medium:

15ips 2 track Master Dub reels of The Final Cut which I obtained from the wife of a deceased employee of Columbaia Records.

I believe that I have most direct to disc lp's ever released to include the 45rpm's. One of these days, I think I'll catalog my collection. I'm sure I must have some disc's that are worth some bucks. I know I got a lotta of outta prints. My mother's best friend and my first tutor left me her collection of opera recordings. Thinking about all that I own and haven't listened to in years . . I'm startin to get excited! Thanks.
Mono and Stereo copies of the Butcher Album in very nice condition.

Thousands of first releases (mostly rock/jazz/blues) from 1961 to current.

I hope one of my kids gets interested fast.
