What is your Holy Grail vinyl? - Blu-ray Forum

What is that one vinyl that you consider to be like finding the Holy Grail and you so desperately want in your collection?

For me it's
Kate Bush - This Woman's Work anthology set

Goes for 1,000 dollars on Ebay

Right now it would probably be "The Latest" by Cheap Trick. It typically sells for $100-150, however I always seem to miss it when it comes up for sale.

I already have it....a UK pressing of Dark Side of the Moon with a3/b3 matrices in the deadwax.

I think I own or have owned every LP I ever wanted. I am drawn to some of the new releases and I am looking forward to THE FORCE AWAKENS release and the STAR WARS gold vinyl edition. Sometimes when I come across an album in my local used store and play it back I am surprised how much I love it and where was I back then. My recent pickup of Dave Mason"s self titled Dave Mason LP circa 1974 is one of those. The only lp over the last few years I guess I had to have was the original limited edition and numbered red vinyl release of BLADE RUNNER.

I finally was able to score a copy on ebay a couple months ago. Now it would probably be a first pressing of KISS's debut album or a copy of "Cherry Pie" by Warrant.

I would love to have a complete, and in perfect condition, Depeche Mode 7"/12" singles collection

Eric The Duke · 05-19-2016, 06:23 PM

My holy grail is the Michael Jackson HIStory set. I remember seeing it in Tower Records when it came out and I regret not buying it!

OI8T12 · 05-19-2016, 06:33 PM

Even though I haven't played any vinyl in a long time, I would ahve to say my Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti album.

This is a great set. I picked mine up from the local Best Buy with a gift card...ended up only paying 10 bucks.

gilapimp · 05-27-2016, 12:39 PM

I don't consider my Fight Club soundtrack my "Holy Grail" vinyl, but it is the most I paid for a record and its OOP. I bought it Used on ebay two years ago, imported from Germany for $150. It plays fine, no skips or pops.

[Show spoiler]

I recently picked up the green vinyl edition (a supermarket exclusive at the time, bizarrely) and it totally blew away my cynicism regarding new remasters. This is the best Aqualung I have ever heard - it sounds like it was recorded yesterday! The package is lush too - I love the booklet.

Nightman · 02-15-2017, 02:22 AM

I would have to say that the Bad Religion box set is my holy grail. I wanted this set even before I got into vinyl. I finally got it yesterday!!!

Filmasong · 06-19-2016, 09:13 PM

I've been trying to find a copy of[Alone With No Love-The Contemplations]for oh about twenty years.

Snowmaker · 07-22-2016, 06:21 PM

Only one of the greatest albums of all time signed by the man himself:

JeffTheMovieGuy · 07-30-2016, 12:50 PM

I'd love to buy most if not all the Amon Amarth albums I could get my hand on but unfortunately they aren't in stock at the moment on Amazon, I wish there was a definitive time when they do that.

GipsyDanger · 08-27-2016, 07:47 PM

An original pressing of The Stone Roses - Garage Flower is what I am really after.

I could easily get one off of ebay or discogs in the $100 price range but none of those are in that great of conditions. If I'm going to get it I want it to be a condition I will be proud to showcase not "good or very good"
