Along with Pearl Jam's Binaural this is the album I find impossible to find for a fair price.

Rush Vapor Trails. A sealed copy currently on EBay for $250. Extremely hard to find LP at less than $100.

I have a first pressing, mono copy of Sgt. Peppers, with a huge boot print across it from some drunken party back in the day. Wish I could replace it :cry:

I mainly collect electronika now but will give up my left nut for...

Bangor Flying Circus - they only made one LP (members from HP Lovecraft and Shadows of Knight) and then shortly after that became Madura

There is a copy of BFS on ebay at the moment for a reasonable price. I sold my copy about 15 years ago.

1st pressing of Motorhead's first album. Only 600 pressed with the silver cover. Now approaching the £300 mark when they pop up.

By the Beta Band:

the Patty Patty Sound
Los Amigos del Beta Bandidos
Champion Versions

...3 separate EPs that were later combined into one album called (most creatively

) the 3 EPs...

Would be awesome to have these in my grubby mitts.

Weasels Ripped My Flesh with the alternate German cover art.

I'd also love to own vinyl pressings of Neil Young and Crazy Horse Weld which I find to be superior to Live Rust and Roger Waters' Amused to Death.

Somebody to Love Aguaturbia's 1st 45 on the Arena label. Last copy went for about $100

I would like to have some more on MFSL in good condition but the prices are way to high for me. I have about 10 albums on MFSL which I also have on the normal vinyl. It noticed some are better than the regular and some are so much better. So in which one to invest?

And I finally found my holy grail

Managed to buy Rammstein's Mutter on vinyl this evening on E-Bay at not too bad a price either. Still a bit more than I'd ever usually consider, but sod it, pay day.

Pity it's on picture disc, but I can live with that.

Frank Sinatra's entire Columbia catalog on 78 and LP's, Paul Whiteman and his Orchestra's entire catalog (all 78's) and the entire Steppan Grappli catalog, especially the Hot Club of France trios with Jingo Rinhart, again all 78's. Then I can get real obscure....
