    One of my fellow A&M Corner members found this on Ebay:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1593&item=2584397454

    $150 BIN price. MFSL-1-081, Nat King Cole Sings, George Shearing Plays. Is this thing all that rare, or is this one of those over-inflated sellers hoping to strike the gold mine?

    Oh, and if anyone has an extra copy or two, NOT for that much money, let me know. Anything's better than that steaming turd of a CD I bought a month ago. ;)

    Rudy,

    Not that I usually search MFSL Vinyl or anything, but it is the first time I've seen this one.

    I guess I don't read the MFSL listings all that often, but it surprised me to see it also. I also didn't remember that Herb Alpert's Rise was pressed on MoFi. Not sure if I'd get that one or not, as I have the CD, and an A&M "Audiophile" pressing of it that sounds identical to the CD.

    I'd almost be willing to bet that the MoFi is different than both of those A&M pressings. I checked and yup, Nat is a legit. release.

    A very common Capitol LP. Just buy one of those for like 6 bucks. Spend the rest of the $150.00 on Sinatra vinyl....

    I actually have one copy already, but around here I can't find good clean copies. Still looking though. I'd get the MoFi if it were like $25 or $30, tops, but $150-ish is way too expensive for MY taste.

    Dave: the "Rise" auctions I saw are for legit MoFi releases also. One, in fact, was a promo. But I don't see getting a MoFi on that one if I already have good vinyl.
