Some record collectors aren’t necessarily music fans, but moreso completists. I listen (or would listen) to most of the records I own, however there are some records that I know I wouldn’t enjoy, but I’d still like to have due to their scarcity.

So a list of the most “sought after” albums would be albums that are difficult to obtain and contain great music in some combination but not just one or the other.

While Tenorman is one of my favorites and is very rare it’s clearly not one of the “five rarest jazz albums”. There are tons of 78s that have only a handful of copies in existence, while Tenorman goes on sale 5+ times a year in VG+ or better. Now if we are saying it’s one of the “five most sought after” albums I could definitely see that argument. But I would love to hear the seller say what the other five are too just out of curiosity. Anyone want to come up with a list of the five most sought after albums? I think it would be fun.

No “P” means Liberty and in that case I feel that $273 really is over the top. I mean, what would a copy that does have the “P” and deep grooves fetch? I think it’s weird that with the currently available information it is easy to figure out in less than five minutes what kind of copy this Duke Pearson is and still folks are willing to fork out serious money.

Happy new year everybody 😉

He has a lot of listings, and we know it’s sometimes hard to keep track, even with the best intentions. And, he answered questions directly and clearly right away, which is great (and has a 100% feedback rating). However, I looked at a lot of his listings, and while he uses a lot of label lingo to try and puff his sales (like you, I have no problem with this), he does not actually show any of those labels, despite the nice “posing” and lighting of the photos, and all of the vinyl is hidden in the sleeves. So, despite the nice titles (and there are many), I would be a bit suspect.

I was watching this one as well.. I’d love to have an original copy. The seller calls it one of the five rarest jazz albums in existence… Any idea what the other four are?

His copy of the Helen Merrill with Clifford Brown is already up to $360 with 5 days to go. It’s going to go for a big price: http://www.ebay.com/itm/300837847894
