I noticed this CD comes without a back cover insert - Anyone who's thinking about buying take note of this before you put money down...

If it had the back insert, wouldnt it be worth $61? I cant wait for the day when I go to the rec store and find this one in the used, cut-out bin etc.

And here in the UK the price of "The Family" CD in reasonable condition (not "still sealed" nor "mint condition", just "reasonable") can easily range from between £90 and £120 - that's in sterling. The same goes for the Madhouse "8" CD.

And providing that you can find "The Family" on CD in the first place! I've only seen three copies for sale in the past three years, one a Japanese import and the other two were German pressings.They were snapped up in the blink of an eye...


I would strongly suggest you hold on to your copy, SkletonKee.

I have the Japanese pressing of this, and it's pretty good. I ordered that one. The most fun finds are the ones you stumble upon. I found Jill Jones in a used CD store about 10 years ago...for 5.99!!! smile

And GOD, look at this...

I agree. I picked up The Family cd for $5 dollars a few years ago. I was looking around the store waiting for someone to tell me it was a mistake.

I actually picked cassette copies of The Family & Mazarati at a used wrecka store in Dallas about four years ago...bought them for .50 cents a piece. I was about to have a heart attack. The entire time I thought some record geek would come out of the back and tell me it was all a joke...

There's written: "The album was only released on CD in (Germany and Japan)"

This is not True. no no no! I've got it on CD AND Vinyl. The Vinyl-Cover has got much more fotos than the CD booklet. I've also got an Extended Version of "Scrams Of Passion" on Vinyl.

Only four weeks ago (or something like that) I bought this cd new in a recordstore for 8,35 euro (approsimately 9 dollars). And they also had madhouse 16, but that was a little more expensive, that was 13,65 euro (approximately 15 dollars). Already sold them both. They also have the cd Remix-in-carnation by Wendy and Lisa. Should I pick this one up?
