Got them in Nashville decades ago. The vinyl used for the pressing was of poor quality with resultant ‘Rice Krispie’ sounds(snap, crackle,pop). At least on copies I had.
To me back then, it was an okay record. But I guess one person’s okay is another person’s “mega-rarity.”

The next highest sale was for $3500 but the vast majority closed for under $1k.

That way, people looking to sell ephemera or looking to buy a specific rare LP could post their wishes and email contact, and then simply be contacted directly?… Best, Todd
