Most treasured

[The Black Adder]

Hello all.

So, what is your most treasured bit of media be it LP, CD, TAPE... Of course, no download pish, lol.

Show us whatcha got... Piccies please!

Well, here is one of mine.

Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen we are floating in space.

I've had these since new and boy, what an investment.

Produced by a real pharmaceutics company each pack is a drugs packet with the useage leaflet. The most rare one out of the lot is the 12 pill pack, (never opened), each mini cd is sealed in a real enlarged drugs blister pop pack with foil seal, each mini cd containing one track. Only 1000 made.

The album cd is the same containing one huge cd pill and the LP version as two even bigger pills...!! lol

Love the design and imagination of this as well as the album itself. One of my all time faves.

That's got to be the coolest packaging I think I've ever seen.

For me... Hmmm... I'd have to think on that...

Mine is 'Raw Power' by Iggy and the Stooges; first UK pressing, completely knackered, tatty cover, but quite possibly the best record ever made by anyone in the history of the world.

Pink Floyd - Pulse on vinyl...analogue mastering and sounds superb..cost over £100 though.

Probably my autographed copy of Holiday by Madonna - not my picture, but pretty much the same:

Ultra rare Roger Taylor 'strange frontier' withdrawn sleeve. Apparently only a few exist.

Sadly I had to sell it last year for £700

I still have my Zappa in New York with' Punkys whips' on the sleeve and album. Although all my Zappa LP's hold a special place in my heart...:)
