    If you bought that on the tour and the matrix numbers are right then that is something.  I have never seen or heard of a single LP version being authentic. So seeing this is interesting.

    Pretty cool piece of history right there.  I bought the repress from 2011 and that wasn't cheap for $100.

    Yup. Matrix numbers match. I think I paid $20 at the show. It’s definitely my prized possession as far as vinyl goes. Alternate cover for this version too.

    Where is the UFO pic?  I have to go look at my copy again, lol.  There are sooo many boot versions of this.

    So cool to get this.  Ialmost bought their RSD version of Like Clock work at the show but figured why bother since I have a copy already?  I wonder if it was some crazy variant too?

    I don’t know anything about the RSD Like Clockwork version. I just have the original.

    No UFO pic. This is the inside of gatefold. That’s it. Nothing else but the record.

    I love this thread, thanks OP!

    Beach Boys Endless Summer was the first non-children’s album I owned (was a gift) and MJ’s Thriller was the first album I bought with my own money so those are both very close to my heart and have received regular play over the years.

    As an adult, I stumbled across a Led Zeppelin bootleg, For Badgeholders Only (part 2) in a used vinyl shop in the early zeros, bought it for $30 or $40 (Canadian, lol). While I eventually tracked down a download of the full concert the vinyl gets more regular play, lol.

    I knew a person that would buy any Led Zep boot he could find.  He had shows that were never released, albums with the full banter of the band.

    He would tell me stories about the records.  One of them included Robert Plant asking the crowd "is there anyone NOT on ludes tonight?"

    I don't do vinyl-recreating my CD collection would bankrupt me. But I have the two PJ super deluxe sets which have vinyl and my brother got me the deluxe Nevermind reissue. TBH those would have been at the top of the list anyway unless I had some other signed stuff!
