What's that one holy grail record that's missing from your collection?

Paul McCartney Flaming Pie. An original is just TOO expensive.

Still waiting for a re-issue to ever happen...

 

Little Roy - Tribal War (Aires LP 1975)

Little Roy - Tribal War

 

Interesting question. I have assumed it was released as a singe. I got the image from Wikipedia, which is not always 100% accurate. If the single wasn't released, the record would certainly be a "Holy Grail" for a Hunters' collector!

 

If you want to sell it for a resonale price PM me.

 

NM copies are going for $400+ USD...one day! I have the Classic Records' No Angel and it's stunning. Maybe the best-sounding LP in my collection. I'd love to see Safe Trip Home and Girl Who Got Away reissued on vinyl. I'm not hopeful

 

Well, I certainly did not see that coming. I built a summer cottage out of R.E.M. Monster CDs.

 

Louvin Brothers Satan Is Real. Only song I've ever heard is the Byrds' cover of The Christian Life.

 

A clean original copy of Alice Coltrane- Journey In Satchidananda

 

Yes! That's one of my grails too. The originals are going for insane prices. Have you heard the Impulse reissues? Are they any good?

 

Floyd's P.U.L.S.E. vinyl version

 

This is a self defeating thread since Sellers will now charge even more for these unobtainables. I post mine here in invisible ink. So there.

 

Have you read some of these grails that people desire? Apparently R.E.M. - Monsters on CD would be a dream come true for one user. I wouldn't call that unobtainable.

 

Never got a Butcher cover....and it annoys me.

 

What's the going rate on these now?

 

People are not getting the REM Monster joke. IT'S A JOKE!!!

Why is this annoying me so much?

 

I think he's kidding on that perennial 99 cent CD.
I could be wrong ...

 

When man finally discovers life on other planets, the first thing they'll see in this alien civilisation will be a CD of Monster.

Had I known how desirable this was, I'd have taken much better care of my copy, which I bought in 1996 with my first ever weekly pay. Its not terrible, but the outer box certainly has the battle scars of moving house about eight times…

 

I have a copy and yes I think it sounds good. I think I paid $12.

My father-in-law has an original copy of El Daoud that I have to constantly force myself not to steal I know for sure he wouldn't notice.

 

Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left - Island Records, U.K. pink label 1st pressing

 

First 2 Floyd albums in mono. Reissues would do me...

 

Third state Butcher Cover... have first and second state and looking for a very good copy of a third state...

 

I guess for me it is a copy of Buckingham/Nicks on CD, would really love to see a nice reissue of the album.

 

I think I have everything I want/need, that's already been released. Unreleased stuff, that's a whole other ball game

 

Saw a really nice one at Amoeba SF for $2000 last week.

 

I asked because my local store got one in and are asking $800 for it. I didn't really check condition, as I have no desire to own it. I thought it was interesting they had one though.
