Vinyl Records You Might Own That Are Worth a FORTUNE! $$$ 

Any clue what a pre released Molly hatchet promo record might be worth? Won it in a radio station call in give away , says not for sale promo only stamped right on it ,

@@robertgembala8532 WOW! You scored in my opinion, either way!

@@rileyreckoning3831 yeah I’m pretty happy with it, got it back in the 70s when they just started getting big, Can’t be the album art either, Hard to know which ones better Molly hatchet or Nazareth when it comes to album covers

Do you have any african American records that are rare?

@@chloeannmills8599 Good question. Although it falls in the Reggae/Jamaican category...I have an old Peter Tosh album must be from ...hmm...mid 70's.🌟

Wow that’s amazing! 🤤

Keep that home address confidential, bro !!! I've had so much of my collection stolen,smh

That's awesome

Well you made your money back

Is there a Discogs link ? so I can marvel at your collection like the record nerd I am lol

I still have mine, too..74. I wore out my player 🤷‍♀️

You are so lucky. Mr. Cooke passed away when I was a toddler so I never got to see any of his TV appearances

Same I have records since I was 7 reggae ,I'm 55 and yep they're going to my kids 🍀🇬🇧👍🏼

I guess I’m an outlier here considering I’m just 18, but I’m really glad I decided to start vinyl hunting. It’s a wonderful hobby

@@nitro5247 it'll never let you down,being so young has its plus sides, unlike a lot of us at your age ,you have lots of us at YOUR AGE so be lucky and maybe some old collector may donate to your collection,good luck from the 🇬🇧🍀👍🏼 UK

I agree! Thanks for watching! 🙏

But , if you play them on a cheap system , it's useless.

You can always start again. Hope you left that human slime!

I feel you.

@@Plarocks Thnx n yes I did, only I had to lie in order to get away. In 80 he had moved me n my unborn baby boy to his Rez, (we're Native Amer), within a month the A-hole had cheated, he was drunk, came home, brought it with em, they'd been laying together n had dirt n weeds on themselves n when I questioned em he had beaten the crud outa me. Unfortunately, it was the start of me being violently abused for 4 yrs. He had threatened me saying that if I had left em, he'd break my bones n mess my face up so nobody wud want me n I believed em, which is why I had lied saying that I'd be visiting my family n wud return to em, I didn't, thank God. I came close to being killed several times. The worst was having my jaws broken, eyes sealed shut, had a concussion n cracked ribs. Unfortunately, I had never put his ass in jail for fear I'd pay for it even worse. I was beaten 1-2 times a month during those 4 yrs. My 4 late bros n I had gone thru various abuses as children. Our mom was murdered when we were 4-8 yrs old n lived with other family afterwards, which is why I ended up being in abusive relationships. I've been single for 16 yrs, gave myself time to heal, I'm good now. I kept the truth from my family until a yr after returning back home, I tld one of my older bros n had to talk him out of traveling to AZ to get em, we live in NV/ID, I had never seen him that mad, angry. A part of me wanted him to pay em back but he wasn't worth my bro getting in trouble. After I had left was when he tossed my belongings in that ditch. There were two letters from our mom asking our dad's family how we were doing, they were also a great loss to me. Hope u dnt mind my long comment. God bless*

make better life choices.

@@MAGAMAN make better comments.

Hahah wow

I had that album. Not anymore though. It got thrown out.

He'd be rich if he could go back in time. buy them all and properly store for 50+ years. Well you know what they say about hindsight.

@@whichgodofthousandsmeansno5306 Yeah they say hindsight is $$$$$!

Hindsight is 20 20 😁

Good on you for keeping them!!!!

@@noblerecords you just gave me a good idea for a RU-vid video. I will make a video going through the titles. Probably have a few jewels in that bunch.

Granny was a rocker. A family treasure. Make sure they are stored and preserved correctly!

@@unabonger777 I will. I need to get them all together and go through them. Who knows. I know I saw some awesome labels when I was hurriedly putting them in boxes. My grandparents raised 8 kids spanning the 40s through the 80s. My dad was a WW2 baby and his youngest sister probably left home in the early 80s. They collected albums from every era in-between. I saw Hank Williams, Johnny cash, Dolly Parton, Led Zeppelin, Elvis, The Beatles, Madonna, some old Christmas shit, chipmunks crap, and all sorts of stuff. I also have an old turn table and radio set, 60s style that I kept from my wife's grandparents. It was filled with old LPs. The sound that comes from those 15s in that player is golden. Too bad I don't get to enjoy it like it should be.

I’ll give you $500 for all right now

Thanks for the kind words! I’m trying! Tell your friends 🤣

Agreed

Too bad he didn’t spend his entire paycheck on copies. Selling them would’ve been helping him in retirement.

Rush isn't from Canada. Rush is from another universe. 😉

Hahahahaha why thank you!

So nice to hear that i have the friendly version 🥰

@@noblerecords I have the Bowie album, Diamond Dogs. The cover is not in a good condition. How much is it worth ? Ps, I live in South Africa, bought it here in Cape Town. Hoping to hear from you.

Haha yes

Mountain's first album. "This record was made to be played loud".

David Bowie. ..The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars... PLAY AT MAXIMUM VOLUME.

LOL And Loud we did!!!

True!

I just asked another poster if they heard that same story. I remember about 30+ years ago that Sears put them on sale for one day before they were pulled off the shelf. Thanks for your post.

@@riverraisin1 You are welcome 😊

only if you can find a buyer

I’m so happy a rush fan said this , I was thinking hmm I’d just like to have it on vinyl ….lol I love that first album !

To me, it's the best record they ever put out. On the back of yours does it say "For best results play at maximum volume" as the US pressing does?

@@Jreb1865 Yes it does say that even on this Canadian edition! And it all True!

@@northernhoser Cool! I always wondered if it did...

@Victor Smit My keyboeard ies fucked up & puts extra "e"s everywhere, see what Ie mean? Occasieoenally Ie miess oene. Soerry about that...

I’ll try! Thanks for watching! 🙏

Thanks for watching! 🙏

I've got The White Album in white vinyl. I don't know if it's worth anything but I've been dragging it around for years now.

What I recall is that Sears used to have quite a record department in their stores, back in the day. They were able to put that album on sale before other stores got it (in the USA). it was only on sale for one day before they were all pulled off the shelf because of the graphic cover. Have you ever heard that story?

i could have bought a copy for £25 in 1980

I would open up the record and play it . Drive My Car , Dr Robert , And Your Bird Can Sing .........its a very good butcher job if you ask me !!!

Big Deal!!

You can still do that today. Most antique stores I go to will usually have at least one seller with a crate or two of vinyl. I always go through them

In the white room with black curtians. Rock and Roll will never Die. Neil Young Right on !!!

Thanks man! Nice to see you!

There are about a dozen versions of those Australian AC/DC pressings. Depends on which one you have that has the most worth - like the blue labels with the yellow kangaroo on its label. Secondary, you have the condition both the cover and especially the condition the vinyl is in that sets its price. No one wants a worn out G+ vinyl.

I hear you Larry. But at least you tried and that counts.

I would really like to have one!

@@noblerecords one was signed by Getty Lee to his dentist lol

Definitely a rare pressing. What may be even more rare is the Moon Records 7” that Rush self-released that features their cover of “Not Fade Away”. I have an original Moon 45 but havent’t checked in a few years to see what they go for.

I'm in the toronto area, and that's my holy grail! Maybe I'll find it at a thrift store one day!

@@thatmatt41 you will have better luck at estate sales bro, I'm in TO, if it's in a thrift store it's gone already by the workers and they are either keeping it or passing off to a collector they have a side deal with that pays. I have several employees on the look out for a list of stuff and they get a "finder's fee"

Me to! I am going to get them out as I just bought a turntable off Amazon LOL

I remember throwing everything out at 18! Wtf was i thinking?

Thanks man!

Hit Pause?

Uhh...there's not too many people here under the age of seventy is there?

Cool one! Thanks for watching! 🙏

Got 1. Had 1, lost it, took close to 20 years to find another.

I have one and occasionally play it. It is still in great condition.

Yeah I should’ve mentioned that! Thanks for watching! 🙏

Yes. Good friend, Beatle nut used to buy mono lp's.

Thanks awesome!

Haha thanks man! Yeah there’s a ton. Just found a Simon and Gfunk mono! Thanks for watching! 🙏

I have the Simon n Garfnkl. Loved it. Does itvruin the value if they have scuffed covers and needle gougrs? 😊😊🍻

The black vinyl of Moody Blue is the rare copy !!!!

I’m a really big fan of the Velvet Underground, and I was lucky enough see them in concert in their 1993 reunion tour in London at Wembley arena, I’m only 61 so, I am to young to remember them in their day but over the years I’ve collected quite a few of their albums on vinyl, I know they only made 4 albums but I have many compilation albums but, I would love to get hold of the first album that you are talking about that’s for sure, with its original cover with the zip on the cover but I bet there isn’t many of them around now but they didn’t make very many of the zip cover anyway but, I would imagine that they are worth quite a bit of money now.

I don't remember a zip on the first VU album ... but a peelable banana!@@mrfugazi6713

Glad to! Thanks for watching! 🙏

I see what you mean. My first one was the orange double live in France by "The Cure" They look cool to look at.

Remember the red Fantasy records?

Had two LPs in coloured vinyl. Supercharge - I think I’m going to fall in love had this in red vinyl. The other was Elton John’s Goodbye Yellow Brick Road in yellow vinyl. Lost them in a fire, 😢

@@tedburnard841 I have the Elton John one

Thanks for watching! 🙏

Dang, I have Easy Action under the Warner label. Glad to see a fellow Alice fan!

I’ve got a rare rock and roll of fame Alice Cooper T-shirt double sided print and poison on 12” if your after any mate?

Ah! We all have regrets like that 🤣 Thanks for watching! 🙏

Bummer about missing out on that copper/silver cover! I was working in a record store when Synchronicity came out so I got to see a lot of the variations come in. I managed to grab a copy of the black and white one which I still have sealed. Never saw another one come through.

@@joxer96 awesome!

is a Japanese import version of Synchronicity worth anything?

I've got the blender cover

Really?

Back in the early 80's, my brother was a manager at Record Bar. He had several crates of "cut-outs" and was often, also, given promotional concert tickets, back stage passes and several times had various groups stop by the store to make public appearances. With all the interaction with these (mostly) rock groups, he would get the band members to autograph the many albums he had collected. It was a really cool collection until his house caught fire and burned to the ground. He and his family were not hurt but all their possessions - including the awesome record collection - was lost.

@@urbanurchin5930 Insurance?

Sounds like a deal

same with all other hobbies as well where people collect, that's nothing new

Geoff Emerick (RIP) abhorred the Sgt. Pepper reissues. There's a lack of musical literacy in the last 20 years. Case in point: The George Harrison All Things Must Pass anniversary. No understanding of what a mix is meant to do, they just put George's voice like frosting on a cake. Sounds like garbage.

Hi, what songs are on the 45 ? I’m a fan so I’m curious, thanks ! I love that first album

Wow! Wonder which 4 🤔

wasn't remixed, but lowered in sound volume. It was common back then, if it didn't work on all turntables, they fixed it. If the grooves are too big (too large waveforms), there will be large low frequency (bass) curves that made the needle jump out of the grooves. Equipment got better, so nobody cared later on about those cheap turntables.

Thanks for watching! 🙏

Thanks so much!

Well we get them very often, worth about $40 in good shape

Thanks for watching! 🙏

Quickly identifiable by the later addition of his name across the top. Originally it had the same 1/8th inch white border around a fully square art. Some of the later CD reissues I've seen use the original art
