    imagine finding that in your loft!!!
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I found a vinyl copy of U2's debut "Three" from 1979 in the plain black sleeve. It's not the original numbered version, but a second run, but still pretty rare. In my 20+ years as a U2 fan, it was the first time I ever saw it in a store and snatched it up immediately.

    Is that really all that rare? I've seen it in 3 or 4 independent record shops. Generally around £30 right?

    I have a 1st pressing of the Rolling Stones "Their Satanic Majesties Request". You know, the one with that crazy 3-D cover. Not sure how much it's worth or even if it's considered "rare". I do know that later pressings did away with the 3-D cover.
    Rock on!

    I also have an original American pressing and a later Japanese pressing of the "Immigrant Song" 45 rpm by Led Zeppelin. It, of course, had a very interesting B side.

    My original collection was trashed by a girl with a pin, but from my recent newb collecting activities, I have Floyd's Piper at the Gates of Dawn on white vinyl, and an original Led Zep 4, which is probably not rare, but has great mojo, with a shabby aged cover and inner slip, which matches the artwork perfectly.
    Nicely reliced, if you will.
    I did have a red vinyl Under a Blood Red Sky by U2, and a red Rocky Horror Picture Show, which was ultra-cool, but no more.
    Music is not a competetion.
