?Was it a good deal?

back in 85 i made a trade with a guy i met at a roger waters concert in toronto. i gave him a bootleg of a concert double album clear vinyl recorded in toronto in 1975 (i don't remember the title). the guy told me it was a limited edition of 500. mine had a serial number on the cover (200 something). he gave me 25 bootlegs of my choice all on 4 tracks tape.

was it a good deal?


this question is flashing in my head for the last 20 years!!!

I would say it was a fair trade.

I have a limited edition pressing (blue vinyl, #366 of 1000) of Elvis Prestly's Moody Blue, his final album..I bought it new in "77 when he died for about $12.00... Current value on the collectors market.....$6500.00. I'd a hung on to the vinyl..

Don't you hate things you can't undo? Maybe you have some crap in your attic that is worth buttloads of money. Make up for that poor choice!

The Floyds will never die! They're immortal! So that means the records aren't worth shit
