Highlights
Subjectively speaking, the rarest or most special pieces in my collection:
Demo tapes
With Big Black Bus, Grist-O-Line, Lunchbox, Family Jams and also (most likely) a counterfeit of Family Jams, I call myself happy to own a few of the very first releases.
Non-commercial tapes: POAAF-era
The Portrait-Promo-Tape and some early-stage Get Your Gunn-tapes: there is stuff around, you do not even know, that it exists, before you buy it.
SLC
recalled promo
The famous original version with unauthorized samples from the films Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang as well as some other sound snippets. Matrix nr with ### instead of *** is the collector's gate to heaven.
Vinyl
testpressings
Quiz question for an audiophile collector: what is better than an 180g-LP? Correct, it is the 180g testpressing! Only a very few ones exist per release, what makes them very hard to find.
Rare video formats:
U-Matic &
Type-C-video
I will never ever be able to watch these but I am more than happy to only look at the physical releases.
