    That's because it is the famous bootleg recording officially released by Neil (think Frank Zappa's Beat The Boots). However, the other two titles in this series (Dorothy Chandler Pavilion 1971 and Royce Hall 1971) replace the bootleg recordings with Neil's own (much higher quality) recordings.

    I love Camelx3 graphs that look like this:

    This is one of several live albums from BabyMetal, the Japanese female-fronted metal band. (They have several live albums.) This is a good old-fashioned 5xLP Box Set, no CD's, no DVD's. Legitimate Japan-only release I think. Probably weighs a ton? I paid real money to see them live in concert and it was a hoot ... Price down to $60.41.
    https://www.amazon.com/Live-Tokyo-Babymetal-World-Legend/dp/B0969RZL3K

    Enuff Z'Nuff's 4xLP box of demos, rarities, live etc is colorful, and big price drop to $29.30
    https://www.amazon.com/Rarities-Demos-Enuff-Znuff/dp/B097XCXGB2

    Not a huge price drop, but a new low and a great album at a good price. You probably own Blue States if you buy this electronica / trip hop / downtempo stuff that I like - he's been around forever, his old vinyl LP's don't get re-pressed and sell for premium prices. On Cream Colored wax from Memphis Industries with limited US distribution, down to $17.99:

    (As an aside, that third-party seller's listing for Peter Gabriel 'Birdy' is no longer there, so it was either purchased or removed. Price of Birdy back up to regular levels.)
    ====================================
    ELP's 10LP Box Set 'Out Of This World Live' is at a new low Prime price of $101.30. Moreover, there are several "Very Good" condition copies for $84 in the Amazon Warehouse. I scanned the handful of negative reviews and none made mention of pressing problems or such with the vinyl boxes, so the Warehouse copies might be a good option. (Sometimes you read the poor Amazon reviews and they say things like "I'm returning this for the third time, it's warped like the others." That is NOT the case with this set.)

    I have had two Royce Hall LPs and both were badly warped. It may just be how they were stored at my local distribution center, but I returned them, and advise to check right away if you have ordered from Amazon.

    You guys wanna hear a nice story? Mr. 'Los Toros" was as good as his word - my adult son, who lives in New York City, joined Los Toros at the Roxy Music concert last night and had a wonderful time. Floor seats too! Gotta love this Forum .... thank you sir!

    I'm seeing lotsa movement on Amazon prices. Perhaps they are clearing their shelves of backstock as well?

    Andra Day's soundtrack to "The United States Vs. Billie Holiday" is basically a Billie Holiday Tribute album, sung by one of the finest singers of our generation. Just $9.29 .... Five-Star Rating on Amazon with 687 reviews ....
    https://www.amazon.com/United-States-Holiday-Picture-gold-colored/dp/B08Y4RLQ4D

    Danko Jones is still going? I saw them in concert a couple times many years ago. Their 2021 album 'Power Trio' just $7.88 .
    https://www.amazon.com/Power-Trio-Danko-Jones/dp/B0947RRGJB

    https://www.amazon.com/One-Way-Out-Melissa-Etheridge/dp/B095JKDDFT

    Angel Olsen's covers EP (includes Gloria, Eyes Without A Face, others) well worth $9.92, IMO:
    https://www.amazon.com/Aisles-Angel-Olsen/dp/B098Z3RRYT/

    The Network is a silly Green Day side project. But their latest 'Money Money 2020 Pt II: We Told Ya So!' is only $9.74, and reviews were generally good from diehard fans:
    https://www.amazon.com/Money-2020-Pt-II-Told/dp/B08VYBFTR8

    The Meteors' 2012 album 'Doin The Lords Work' reissued in 2022, just $8.92:

    https://www.amazon.com/Surrounded-2LP-Justin-Sullivan/dp/B08XNBY7ZZ

    Something completely different? A very pretty classical vocal album, accompanied by just an acoustic guitar. On the Warner Classica label of Europe, 2021 release. Philippe Jaroussky, Thibaut Garcia – À Sa Guitare. Just $9.19. Check your Christmas shopping list for a snooty friend ...
    https://www.amazon.com/Sa-Guitare-Philippe-Jaroussky/dp/B096TTSDTT



    ... other titles we've mentioned before, including Mandy Moore, Rufus Wainwright, Matraca Berg continue to be offered cheap as well.

    Sorry to hear about that but I just want to say that not all copies are warped. My copy was purchased from Amazon last week through a link posted here and it is perfectly flat.

    Also, not my cup of tea, but this might be of interest to some.

    Great lead, thanks for sharing. I haven’t listened to it in a while but Sullivan’s first solo album is a classic.

    Oh, shoot, somebody buy this. Better yet, buy BOTH copies so Amazon doesn't shoot the price higher afterwards. Only 2 available, I paid almost $30 with Bandcamp shipping for mine a month ago. Just a really good drone / ambient music album, brand new release too, limited edition yada yada ..

    Kenneth James Gibson - Groundskeeping - just $7.67 ...
    https://www.amazon.com/Groundskeeping-Kenneth-James-Gibson/dp/B09TFV24K9



    =======================================================================

    We had this before at $12, now down to $8.36 . John Lodge of Moody Blues 'Royal Affair And After':
    https://www.amazon.com/Royal-Affair-After-LP/dp/B09KNS2SQF

    Anita Lane's 'Sex O Clock' was mentioned before, and several of us enjoyed that album a lot. New low price of $8.31:
    https://www.amazon.com/Sex-Oclock-VINYL-Anita-Lane/dp/B081KRT1C6

    Mindy Gledhil's Christmas album 'Winter Moon' was here before, now even cheaper and quite good IMO: $7.74

    ... and I remember we had AOR Rock fans here. Jim Peterik's latest 2LP set 'Tigress' is old-school AOR with a slew of female rock vocalists. Check it out for $9.98 if you like Pat Benatar's sound:
    https://www.amazon.com/Tigress-Women-Who-Rock-World/dp/B09BF7VNXS

    Back up to $25ish, but still a no-brainer IMO, for 2 high quality lps of excellent piano jazz.
    Said it before and will again- she has a certain Herbie Nichols vibe while still having her own distinct sound.

  20. Agree! I bought the last copy @ $7.67 and then soon after, it shot to $24.98 (with 11 copies in stock!).

    Also : Thanks to @DapperGentleman for the heads-up on the Thurston Moore Screen Time LP. It wasn't a bore to me. I love it! That purchase also included the AutoRip feature, from which I can burn a CD.

    Claire Hamill's 'Abracadabra' at a new low price. Was this the one people were getting the wrong LP with - might be worth a spin at the roulette wheel. $8.81
    https://www.amazon.com/Abracadabra-Claire-Hamill/dp/B08YDQVX1R

    Efterklang's 'Windflowers' at $9.01. We've talked about them before, European 4AD label sound perhaps?
    https://www.amazon.com/WINDFLOWERS-Efterklang/dp/B0972D998L

    Nova Materia – Xpujil on Crammed / Made To Measure - a single 40-minute song over two LP sides. Worth a listen. $8.97
    https://www.amazon.com/Xpujil-Nova-Materia/dp/B08RRKTCXD

    SJP - you there? Just buy this one, quick, before the price goes up. There were two, I bought one just now at $8.15. You'll thank me later. Only 1 person owns it on Discogs, we'll be part of a very elite club. Kevin Keller's "Berlin-School/Ambient" album 'Shimmer':
    https://www.amazon.com/Shimmer-Kevin-Keller/dp/B09FFRYYK1

    Folk singer David Olney's final album, with Anana Kaye for $9.84
    https://www.amazon.com/Whispers-Sighs-David-Anana-Olney/dp/B093YTR4MZ

    https://www.amazon.com/Tonight-Nothing-Golden-Yellow-Bright/dp/B092QTP16M

    Jon Hopkins makes good electronica albums. He did an abstract/experimental Piano 12" EP, now just $7.91:

    https://www.amazon.com/Laysongs-Chris-Thile/dp/B08YM9XGMR

    Jeez, I didn't know there was a 2021 Skids rock album. I've checked, it's the Scottish band we know and love. I knew there was some acoustic sides, but this looks to be the full electric band. On Cleopatra Records of all things? $9.72 .
    https://www.amazon.com/Songs-Haunted-Colored-Vinyl-Skids/dp/B08XCPRNSW

    Bell Orchestre 'House Music' is a great, great record, surprised to see it down here at $8.54. This is Richard and Sarah from Arcade Fire doing very nice instrumental stuff.
    https://www.amazon.com/House-Music-Bell-Orchestre/dp/B08PJPWP24

    Caitlin Rose - Own Sides Now at $9.22
    Someone recommended it a few months ago when it was slightly cheaper so I bought it in a whim.
    Really enjoyable listen.

    Just shagged The Meteors, thank you kindly Sir! :tiphat:

    One of the EXTREMELY rare cases where I only had to hear 1 song 'Strange Times...' and that was it. Very nice vibe, at least that song strongly reminds me of an album that is easily in my all time top 10-20, The Raybeats first album. Great mood!

    Don't ask me why because I have NO bloody idea for the life of me, but I actually found that Storm Seeker rather hypnotic (maybe it's just time for some serious medication...? :agree:) But, for $8, it has become summarily shagged!

    Thanks again mate! :cheers:
