True story...I just found a Beatles butcher cover album for $1 at a garage sale. This is just AFTER another collector had gone through the box of records ahead of me. How he missed it, I will never know.

Would enjoy a top 10 most expensive albums Noble Records has ever sold

the "butcher" album by the beatles is one of my favorite albums by them and I think it's their best "USA" album, because you know they had some completely different albums in the US and UK.

The yellow third man pressing of McCartney iii are going for $2000 on eBay and the album isn’t released yet. Paul is so good that you don’t even need to listen to the album to know it’s great.

I was able to get a 2nd state butcher album , stereo ex-mt for $1 at a Second Hand store. It doesn't happen every day though.

Great video!! I really enjoyed your content & the storys behind them. Excellent bro!!✌🏻✌🏻

I enjoy your videos bro. Keep em’ coming.

Awesome video as usual. Thanks Dylan

Great stuff many thanks !!!

I just sold my second state Butcher Cover for $1,000.00. Pretty stoked...I found it at a flea market for $25!!

that was cool, interesting. I'd love a Top 10 most expensive "normal", shop released albums, not signed, not one-offs.

That Beatle one I remember that was a featured item on "antique roadshow" once. I recall the woman said she walked into Kmart bought it the day that they had it and then I guess they pulled the rest from the shelf shortly thereafter.

That John Lennon record was the most expensive... it cost him his life. This list is basically top 10 most expensive Beatles records lol.

Great episode. Like to see more like this one

Thanks for uploading this today. I'm so obsessed with grails lol. My dad gets hundreds of records from house clearances and I buy them to sell online (apart from all the ones I want to keep now I'm slipping into collecting) The thought of finding those grails keeps me going every day, but there's so much Herb Alpert to search through! ( :

I visited where Lennon was shot at the Dakota Apartments. I recall going to the UN Building after. It was part of our Senior trip in high school.

Cool video and WOW . I don't think I am in for these lol . But the number ! I didn't see that one coming !!! Take care and rock on :)) !!!!!!

Great video!! Interesting for sure

It amazes me that the Beatles after so many decades still rule the roost on so many levels.

Always dig yer vids bro 🤟

Excellent reviews, Greetings from Liverpool England. 👍🏻

New record on Frank Wilson £110,000 in September 2020 there are four white demos, one white label test pressing and one ISSUE (which turned up in a little mom and pop shop in Detroit). It's important to know that there are lots of copies of the later British reissues - indeed it actually kissed the bottom of the charts. Jack White also bought one of the copies (£50k) for the city of Detroit.

I have an Elvis Acetate of Hard Headed Woman that I have Not been able to find out a value for it. Any Idea where I could look

I recently found out a $15 Sinatra record I bought is worth $1000

This makes me feel a little better about how much I spend on records...

I own a sealed test pressing of Tool Aenima that Classic Records made. There is rumored to only be 10 or 20 copies in the wild.

Cool video! One of my best finds gotta be around one month ago. I found a single from David Bowie ‎- Memory Of A Free Festival (dutch pressing) at a garage sale for 50 cents and some other less colllectable david bowie singles (they where all 50 cents each). The weird thing is that they are never played because they where given a long time ago to the person who sold them to me and she never liked David Bowie so she never played them :')

I had a total brain fart about a decade ago and it was whilst flipping through goodwill albums. I passed up a bunch of John Mayall in the interest of coming back to him. At the counter I recalled that I had planned on getting them but being in pain I passed. Then a couple days later I realised that I had confused Coltrane with Mayall and my heart sunk. I have never skipped over another album ever whilst flipping through goodwill albums or any other! To think that I could have about a dozen Coltrane LPs in my collection is a nauseating feeling to even admit the blunder. -✌🏼

Great stuff! Imagining Bill Murray breaking into the FBI vaults without any legal repercussions is just fantastic. Wouldn‘t mind a low numbered White Album either, doesn‘t have to be 0000001, I‘ll settle for 0000004. Thanks for the video!

How much you reckon the Canada butcher sleeve would go for?

A Comic Book Artist friend of mine, one of his first paid commissions back in the early 80s was a cover for a band called "Third Quadrant". They couldn't even afford proper covers so the album comes in a plastic outer sleeve with a single sheet insert with that artwork and another for the credits. I thought it would be even too obscure for Disocgs, it's not, it's not daft money but on the rise. The Kosmik Artifact edition of King Buffalo's EP from earlier this year is already fetching north of $100.

You can _steam_ the cover off the repurposed Yesterday and Today albums. You don't want to try to peel it off, you'll damage it.

Stories about Beatles albums (and singles) always makes me curious as to whatever happened to my sister's collection (she was an avid fan, she even had each member's solo material after the breakup).

I have a 3rd state Beatles Butcher Cover West Coast pressing I won on an auction on Ebay. I also have the American Standard "The Bathrooms Are Coming!" Industrial Musical album that I paid over $500 for on Ebay. It's the most expensive record I've ever bought.

If I remember correctly, Shkreli has played snippets from the album on stream sometime before he got arrested. He also claimed his cat knocked the package off his table causing the CD to fall out and get scratched, but take that with a giant rock of salt.

Crazy funny story about the Wu-Tang clan...lol very good video man who would have thought all that money spent on albums

Enjoyed the video. I was wondering if you could list the albums in the comments. You held up a few albums but I couldn't read the labels because my phone's screen isn't very big.

Very interesting top ten.

I actually have an original copy of the beetles butcher album, Yesterday and today. Its perfect condition. The problem is finding someone that is willing to pay that price.

Lol I was thinking that Wu-Tang would rank at No. 1. The story is unreal.

I'm only about an hour from you guys. I'll have to come visit sometime. Do you also sell CDs?

I have 2 rare records 1 only 500 were made and the other 1000 world wide and never got a reissue..I thought about selling them but who knows but not worth nowhere near what the one you mentioned. Great video Dillon

I’ve come across a few heavy hitters over the years but always find selling them too tempting when I can get over $500 for them

I found a Pitman pressing of Jimmy Buffett's first album at a thrift store for a buck. In really nice shape but with a small corner cut. Discogs shows it as a nice value.

great video

Dylan, What is the background music in your video? Saw 1 other post with no reply.

Wasn't there a Velvet Underground acetate found at a yard sale for 75 cents? If I remember correctly it had some early cuts from VU and Nico and was estimated into the hundreds of thousands of dollars? I was waiting for that one to be number one.

What is the name of the webbsite or app in 7:58 i need to see if my vinyl records is worth a price

Enjoying all your videos but I have to chuckle when you have to explain who some of these bands where from the 1960's like Velvet Underground in one of your other videos. I must be getting really old because I was born only 4 years after the introduction of the 33 1/3 and 45 rpm record :)

Cool I will check mine

how many of us paused the video to check the number on our white albums???

That Wu Tang Clan story is incredible. Never heard that before

What is the track playing in the background?

I possibly came across one of those Holy Grails, where is the best place to convert it into Cash? Is ebay the way to go or is there a more promising auction house?

Question...the Beatles album Yesterday and Today which has this cover on it and was taken off, why does the, THE BEATLES RARITIES album feature on the inside of the album cover this same picture if it was banned from the front. Curious

I have like three or for beatles albums from the 70's haven't been played in almost 40 years, I want to see if there worth something

What's one expensive record you own that you had no idea was THAT expensive 'till long after you bought it?

Hey, what turn table do you own?

I heard the sex pistols black single went for over 20k pretty impressive for punk

I have that sgt pepper album .. parlophone 1967 dam near shat myself till you said signed by all 4 .. mine unsigned 😞

The Yesterday and Today replacement cover shows Paul in his box.

Chris Clarke did the mainstream release of "Do I Love You" and its great. Readily available.

I thought for sure that #1 would be Prince "Black" album. Dang 2.2 million though...

The Xanadu Picture Disc was rare and expensive too. Only 31 copies of the record in the world. It’s because MCA Records didn’t like the way the movie’s poster was cropped in the record. Its price is $8,655.00!

Would you do a list of the most expensive records you have sold at the shop

Loved this video. I’m to poor to know expensive albums. I am regulated to the Dollar bin. Maybe the 5 dollar bin. :) peace love and rock and roll ✌️

RE blues 78's --there have been higher $$$ ones sold privately beatles white album, I have heard there were multiple copies of #1 ...band members , employees. etc Also of #9

Got to go home and look at the number on my white album.

I've got a box of 45s from the '60s, 70s and 80s that I bought new and need to find out what they're worth because I'm ready to sell. I've had them a LONG LONG time and just don't play them anymore. I can find and play the same songs on KZfaq without any hassles..... ;-)

Hi from the UK, not quite on the the scale of some of these valuable items but I was recently with someone I know who went through a box of old vinyl he had for some 30 years and he pulled out a Jimi Hendrix red vinyl with no cover, Cry of Love but.... on the reverse was a red poly door label for Bert Kaempfert. Turns out it was one of only 5 known test pressings to try out reaction to the coloured vinyl. He was shaking when he read up on it. This was a few weeks ago so is looking to sell if you or anyone is interested.

Thank you for the Beatles! And John Lennon!

I always found some records to be expensive... Mostly artists such as Leadbelly Tim Buckley 13th Floor Elavators John Lee Hooker The Leaves Index Iggy Pop /The Stooges Just to name a few

I hate to burst the bubble re: the Wu-Tang album contract's "Heist" clause, but sadly, it wouldn't hold water in court. It would be like writing a contract that said, "Party 1 agrees to be murdered by party 2. Said murder can only be committed by Party 1, as agreed upon by both parties, with no legal repercussions." So just bc u wrote in ur contract doesn't make it legal. If we could do that, we could still have things like duels to the death, etc, provided both parties agreed prior. But we don't have that. Bc these are all crimes, and hence, contractually void/unenforceable. As much as it pains me to acknowledge that Bill Murray can't do a heist to recapture this baby, I have to be real ab this.

A promo copy of The white album should be even more rare than number 0000001.

How does one know how many were pressed?

I remember an ad either in Goldmine or Rolling Stone magazine back in the late 70s or very early 80s someone had a box of Sealed butcher lps. Some were moron and a few stereo being sold for $1000 and $1200 respectively. How I wish I’d bought a few.

It is believed that the most valuable classical record ever sold was the 10-LP Mozart in Paris that sold for $27,000. Of course, the classical market has come way down in the past 20 years, so now you would be hard-pressed to get $5000 for the set. If you only look at recent sales, someone sold the three Martzy mono Bach Violin sonata records on UK Columbia for $9999 on eBay, which is only down slightly from the peak price of 20 years ago. A record I actually own, the first pressing of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto/Bruch Scottish Fantasy on Decca SXL 2026 sold recently for $1599. Made in England at six o'clock, half-moon flipback cover. These are all stock production records that were sold in stores between 1950 and 1965.

Phafner "overdrive" is rare if your looking for psych..

Frank Wilson . The collector who bought an original here in the uk, paid £15,000. Last year ge was offered £125,000. But woukd not sell it.

Pink Floyd The Wall is in it's very first print. The first case sent out goes to Long Beach California. To a Tower records. Second case goes to London. Before a third case is shipped, they realize they messed up the inside cover. It did not have Pink Floyd and then the band members names. The called the two stores that got the misprints and told them not to open the case and send it back. And they do--sort of. Did any of the others make it out into the wild?

Damn that wu tang story is wild

@Noble Records jackie wilson on brunswick gold double A side ?

Cool video. Didn’t see if someone else pointed this out but I’m pretty sure the Wu Tang album is actually a CD.

Wasn't there a Sgt. Peppers pressing with an alternate cover featuring Capitol Records Execs that sold for over $150,000?

got alot of albums... should look through them...

Prince's The Black Album from 1988, if recall correctly has sold for over $50,000. That should but it on this list too?

How about this one: Krokus' first album, self titled, and a prog album at that, only had 560 copies made in 1975! And it has not been made available since! That album, I am sure, would be some $$$!!!

I remember when that wu album got solved to that POS smh. Really hope we get to listen to it one day

gotta go to my grandmas and check her White record, haha !!

Some one should make a movie on the #1 selling album contract.

I was just given led zeppelin 1 2 and 3 first press. Not being a huge fan I decided to sell them on until.....I was made aware that I had a rare turquoise first press...in vg+ condition. I don't know what to do now.....

Hmmm...It would be interesting to see if you could do a FOIA release for a recording of the Wu-Tang Clan album from the FBI.

My buddy has a first state butcher and a couple of second states. Peelers abound.

I never understood why chapman has killed Lennon... until I saw the movie Joker.... it makes sense now in some way...

Aphex twin is a legend. What are you even talking about ?!?!

My accidental grail story: found a 2nd state butcher at a local record store in the Beatles section for 9.99 Let me tell you, the feeling is unbelievable when you know something the person at the record store apparently didn’t or missed. I played it cool and bought it with some others and walked out. I already have two other butchers, one peeled one not (I’m obsessed with beatles records and have disposable income), so this a flip piece. Invested 150 dollars to have it peeled by a dealer I know and sold it on EBay for 800. Ahh good times. :)

Wow. 9:36 Wu-Tang Clan really aint nothin to fuck with.

Dark around the edges, By Dark, great album ,super rare, and expensive, with a great story attached check it out

On the Shaolin I would’ve added a clause: “Purchaser has option to fire upon any current member of Wutang and/or actor Bill Murray if they bust in his house.” Actually I wish pharmabro would’ve got Clan-ganked the day before the Feds busted him.

I have a partially peeled butcher block album. (I got tired of peeling, so I stopped.) When I check prices on EBay, they're all over the map, ranging from 2 digits to 6. Not sure what the proper price is. My White Album number is $1m+. Guess it isn't worth anything. Have lots of 45s. One is a single by John Lennon's father, Freddie Lennon. Bought it a long time ago in Woolworth's bargain bin.
