Stonewall – Stonewall

Here we have another psychedelic rock legend called Stonewall, one that would refuse flat out to cooperate with record labels and any kind of business. This meant that physical recordings of their music are incredibly difficult to locate. Stonewall would only ever record a single album, one which they did not want to be released. It thankfully was, however, albeit to a crushingly short shelf time, making this band’s name rather ironic. Just one record goes for $14,000 today!

Royksopp – Melody A.M. (2001)

As for Royksopp, on the other hand, this electro outfit was pleasingly agreeable to work with in the studio and their Melody A.M. production and release went forward without a hitch. It was an amazing success, with more than one million copies being sold. One hundred of these one million copies had their slips hand-painted by the legendary Banksy, making them incredibly desirable works of art that are individually worth $14,204. Something like this record belongs in a museum!
