On Sound Workshop?
I'm pretty sure there isn't a repress other than the US Makossa and the Kalakuta from the box set.

mc richie rich & scratch lp. this was a cassette only release but a few vinyl test pressings were made. old school milwaukee rap from the early 90's. the only one that ever sold on ebay went for $1800.00. a 7" of 2 songs from the lp was re-issued on jamille records.
Finally got a working jpeg of the Black Seeds up. This was from the same series as the East of Underground LP. The first and second place winners of a military band competition in Germany got to record their set and release this album. Picked it up at a record swap in Newark, CA about 10+ years ago for something like $25.
A test pressing of "Ice Ice Baby" by what sounds like a black guy called "Kamil Nice". I assume that it's the only one in existence.
Probably a mispressing with Neil Young Hey Hey My My b/w Dave Edmunds Creature From the Black Lagoon.
I remember asking for it in the local mom n pop record shop, Reggie Reed's in Rye Lane, Peckham. The old granny with the blue rinse beehive had been there since the 50s, and knew every catalogue number of the new releases off by heart. As she pulled the 45 from a box she said I'd been lucky as they were just about to reseal the box and return them for destruction. Apparently her shop had been unlucky enough to get the only dud batch. Eyeroll.
I walked out thinking one day this will be worth a million, y'know, once Dave Edmunds took his deserved place at the top of the pop hitmakers parade, austerity Britain's low-rent but real 'n' raw blue collar rocker.
Well it is worth a million now - a million fucking Zimbabwe bingbangs.

I guess this is my rarest record. Not an insane $1000 Grail, but pretty tough to get still. Mine's mint too:

This has "The Name of the Game" right?

I also have some awesome song poem stuff, but I'm not sure of the numbers pressed on any of them --
Anything else monumentally rare has been cashed out.
