The problem I have with owning rare vinyl is I always end up leaving it near a fucking heater. Bummer.

Also: Ambrose Slade = £400 Electric Ladyland: Jimi Hendrix: Blue Text = £400
Not exactly a fortune, but good business

I have a fairly large and rare record collection, never stopped buying and collecting it, so glad I didn't, pisses all over digital music.

Great read that Ilford... I laughed at this bit....
Burrell may have wanted to own northern soul’s Holy Grail, but he wasn’t very good at taking care of it, unfortunately. In 2001, Wilson performed a one-off concert at the Togetherness Weekender soul event in Fleetwood, England, and Burrell, so excited to meet his hero, got Wilson to sign this incredibly rare record on the actual label.
“It’s like someone getting a penny black stamp and drawing a moustache on the Queen,” said Koppel. “It’s dumb.”
Luckily for Burrell, this defacement doesn’t seem to have affected the record’s price. The DJ sold his copy through U.K. soul record dealer John Manship in 2009 for, according to Manship, £25,742 – over $40,000 Cdn.
“The person who actually won it bought it for his girlfriend,” Manship told me. “But since then they’ve split up, so who knows, we might see the record back on the market.”

Totally agree, I've recently bought a record player and have started rebuilding my collection.
After listening to over compressed and remastered shit for the past few years, I need to return to the crackles, scratches and pops
