Ever have those times where you look back and feel like kicking yourself for not buying certain records?
My big three "pass-ups"
1. Pyramid-Soul Brothers, Inc. - on Craig Moerer's lists for a whopping $100 years ago.
2. Quicksand-Kell Osbourne - Could have bought a mint demo of this and a mint demo of "Ain't That Just Like a Woman" by Doug Banks...$250 for the pair
3. Steinways-$30 for a VG styrene issue in an Oliver sleeve. Three years later-$40 for a VG+ vinyl demo. Both times, I wanted to hold out for a better copy. :angry:
Let these go different times during the early 90s:
1. The Big Change-Anna King - had a mint copy and let it go for who knows what.
2. Hit and Run Lover-Sonnetts-K.O. - had an almost unplayed copy. Barely got anything for it.
3. Promise Me-A Group Called Us - don't remember if this was good or not.
4. Time Was-Chosen Lot on Sidra - another one-don't remember the sound.
Well, at least I didn't let anything major or really good go (except Anna King). But OH! the stuff I passed up! It's enough to make you sick!
Share a story or two about those times-that is if you can stand the pain!
