Re: Lots of rare items for sale
In due time... I'm seeing hipsters in the city pay $20 for freaking mix-tapes these days. I never would have thought that cassettes would make a come-back, but they are. I think cassettes might be where vinyl was in the late 90s/early 2000s (i.e. just starting to make a popular come-back). So I wouldn't doubt if the PB cassette lot sells for a pretty penny.
As to the LTI master reel-to-reels - I don't really understand what role they served. I mean, I don't doubt that they are authentic, but just based on what I know about recording, I'm curious why foreign markets had their own master reels. Why didn't Def Jam just send plates over to Yugoslavia so press records? Maybe it was cheaper this way? I guess Def Jam was still tiny back then and probably couldn't afford to mail heavy plates to an Eastern European country, so maybe tapes just made more sense. I would be super nervous about a country like Yugoslavia (no offense to my Cold War comrades) fucking up the plate manufacturing, but again, maybe it just made business sense. |

Re: Lots of rare items for sale
Just checking in out of curiosity - did you have any luck selling those Paul's Boutique cassettes? Even though I don't collect tapes, I'd definitely want to go look at them all together in some sort of Beastie museum or something (along with the still-unlocated orange tape).

And it is sitting on my kitchen table. And if you want it to be sitting on your kitchen table you can do that for $400. Last edited by bigfatlove06 : 04-11-2019 at 03:48 PM. |

I do wonder how your reels sound after all these years. I think the quality of the tape mattered a lot. I know guys who have reggae reels from the 70s and they still play (not superbly, but it's fine), meanwhile I know musicians who've pulled their old reels out of their closets and they were basically dust. Then again, they probably bought shitty tape from some drug store to record their garage band while professional producers would buy actual good quality stuff. |

Re: Lots of rare items for sale
It's all very fascinating. In the world of master reel collecting, the price may be arbitrarily high or low. I don't know. I valued it about the same thing ProfD paid for it when he grabbed itit.

Re: Lots of rare items for sale
Something I've noticed while going through all these is that because I got a ton of stuff from other collectors, I see tons of copies that have stickers, condition issues with the sleeves, split seams and stuff. Then you pull out the vinyl and it's pristine. Just an observation.

Re: Lots of rare items for sale
Third post in a row to my own thread is usually a good sign that I need to stop posting. For anyone interested in the items for sale, PB related vinyl is completely listed and I will start CYH items shortly. I'm going to go silent on this thread to keep from bumping it and using the bbs to sell. I'll respond to questions.
