The Undertaker original CD Gett Off (damn near 10 minutes) 12" Sexy Dancer U.K. 12" Soft And Wet U.S. 12" Mazarati Japanese CD Apollonia 6 Japanese CD Hell, I have almost all of the Paisley Park associated artists albums on CD. And an original Grey Album CD by Dangermouse (not a copy with the caricatures on the cover). Those were hard to come by for awhile. What do you mean "Undertaker" original CD...it exists? You know what...I might be losing it. I think I was looking for that like ten years ago and either couldn't find it or found it too expensive. | |

Sander said: Nice examples! Not just because they are rare, but because they kick-ass!
My rarest would probably be Prince - Letitgo on vinyl. It's a promo, white sleeve, with the Dorothy Parker samples. Not really sure if it's rare though. I have never seen another one and rarely hear about it on here, so I guess it could be. You know I have been asking people about that remix and NO BODY believes me!!! I have wanted that DP remix forever!!! | |

Yes, a few copies of the Undertaker weren't destroyed and made it into circulation. They are usually in a white jewel case with no inserts--just a silver CD with an abstract swirl design on it. Then there are pirate copies with a fuchsia-colored cover circulating too with extra tracks. The quality isn't as good on those. | |

Ooh, I forgot to say earlier, I have an original 7" of "I Want You Back" by the Jackson 5 from 1969. The B-Side is of 'Who's Lovin You', if I recall correctly. |

well thats slightly wrong i spent £5 on the ET boxset MJ did i dont have any record stores near me so i only ever get stuff at bootsales etc though the amount of people there who go round just for records amazes me and the fact they seem to be trying to out do each other all the time is amusing i do sometimes wish i had more of an idea about what is rare etc  With Love there is no Death | |

I have an original CD still glued and unplayable, and it is exactly as described above. On a side note, if I'm not wrong the pirate fuchsia-colored cover CD you refer to has the audio of the "Undertaker" movie with "Dolphin" slightly different instead of the audio of the original CD. | |

The rarest I own is a one sided 12 inch gramophone record, with the Gramophone company angel etched into one side and the tune "Way Down Colon Two Step" by "Iffs London Orchestra" on the other side, black HMV label about 1910, very heavy and scratchy sounding. Its a Sousa style military march. Paid $2 NZ for it in a garage sale in 99, probably priceless now.
Another rarity is a 7 inch vinyl single from 1949 (1st year commercially released) of a song called Blue Smoke by Ruru Karaitiana and Pixie Williams (Think Hawaiian style steel guitar). Not only is it rare but the first song recorded and produced in NZ under the first local label TANZA (To Assist New Zealand Artists). Its a family heirloom thats seen better days. I also have several obscure disco albums of my mothers from the 70s by Ohio Players, Fatback band, Osibisa, Tina Charles etc More modern, a copy of Royal Blue by Tyka Nelson would be worth something "Not that I have it" 17 Years ago I made a commitment to Prince | |

Weeeell, it was years ago, and I was still getting into the funk mob, so I naturally wanted to explore this album as well. I also got it for a ridiculously good price. Have to admit though, I've only spun it once or twice It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I got this cd set called Studio Nights consisting of a lot of demos and outakes from Prince from 1976 through like 1983. Pretty slick. It is about 8 cds, one cd is Dez, Andre and Prince on some other shit. Another is some outtakes from the For You album and a lot of funky pre-The Time grooves. I am sure someone here has it. I paid like 70 dollars for it USED ten years ago.
Also have a sound board recording of the Dirty Mind tour on vinyl, a german pressing. Imagine that one. Paid about 40 bucks for it 15 years ago. Just to hear I Wanna Be Your Lover and Head played live back then is bananas. Also got a second generation vhs of Prince, Time and Vanity 6 1999 tour in Minneapolis. Oooh Wee. Got this cd from an artist named Santessa called Delirium. Produced by Stuart Mathewman? from Sade's band. I saw it on Ebay for like $300.00. It was an import when I bought it. I paid $26.00 for it about 6 or 7 years ago I believe. [Edited 9/17/08 17:40pm] [Edited 9/17/08 17:49pm] Upper persuasion for the lower invasion | |

I have no idea what's rare. I've got some 2nd-hand vinyl that might be:
A version of Sly's "Dance to the Music". The Temptations album with Papa Was a Rolling Stone (these could be a dime a dozen, but it took me ages to find one...) The Family - is that so rare? I've also got a bunch of P 12"s but I don't expect they're so rare... And I LOST the original WAR cassette that was sent me in the mail after the CB fiasco...

FuNkeNsteiN said: The Gap Band - The Gap Band (Tattoo) The Gap Bands self-titled release on the Tattoo label (not to be confused with their self-titled Mercury album). I've only seen one copy of this album ever in my life (... and I, of course, immediately bought it )
The Eight Minutes - An American Family Rare r&b album released in the early seventies. Mine is in near mint condition 
I saw that Gap album one time and never seen it iagain. I didnt get it because the songs werent that good....however I regret it now..only being $5. The 8 Minutes...jesus it took me YEARS and YEARS to get that album on a cd....however the songs on that werent that great either, but the guy who gave it to me put their b-sides on it "Lets Sign A Peace Treaty" and "Looking For A Brand New Game" (which I posted on youtube with rave responses). my rarest.... Prince - Modjo interview 1984 Prince - Charade Brothers Johnson - Blast (greatest hit collection with 3 new songs, i never seen anywhere else). Executive - Celebrate Your Love Manhattans - (I Wanna Be) Your Everything single (chile thats tore up) The Family Circle - If You Really Wanta Make It Jackson 5 - Joyful Jukebox Music 
lastly..... We The People - You Made Me A Brand New World Rare and out of print Japanese pressing of this great funk album. Amazon has one copy on sale at the moment, the asking price is 328.10$ What rare stuff do you have in your music collection? Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records. |

Until, one day, I went to East Texas to a very small used music store and found it for $5. Online, I couldn't find it for under $50. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-
