The Pop Group: For How Much Longer Do We Tolerate Mass Murder?-We Are Time $80
as far as vinyl goes...probably $30 for Sonic Youth: Confusion Is Sex on Neutral...
then there's the Throbbing Gristle: TG24...of course, getting 25 discs, it was a relative bargain per disc...but a big expensive mass of music...i forget how much that was as i had to pay in pounds...in dollars, less than 200 i think...

I paid $45 at Reckless for a copy of 'Are You Experience' that was from the original pressing.

that beefheart record with trout mask outtakes that came out about five years ago...I think it was around $25 for a double LP.....worth it
or the Drunks With Guns album = $20... not worth it.

$50 for a bootleg of Katy Lied sessions. That was worth it, though - you don't often find a window into the working method of The Dan.

Wow. I was going to list this as one of mine, but I only paid $22. This was 13 years ago, though. I did buy the other two EPs for roughly corresponding prices at roughly the same time.
$20 for Tad/Pussy Galore split 7" on Sub Pop - Damaged I & II
$20 for Ugly American Overkill 7" that featured the best TAR song ever recorded (Compaction).
And that "Smells Like Smoked Sausages" double 7" was an excellent value at, yes, roughly $20.

WOW
hope you get the heads-up before it's reissued, so you can sell it and hopefully make some of that back
no disrespect intended, that's great stuff.
i'm with you O H Lee. if you wait, you will find. meanwhile, buy what's cheap and available, discover new things. increase your musical knowledge/appreciation and be amazed at the kind of things you've been passing up for years in dollar bins at thrift stores..
