Royksopp — Melody A.M (2001)
Royksopp is still providing fans with incredible electronic music albums these days, but their peak was undoubtedly back in 2001 with the release of ‘Melody A.M’. It didn’t take long for the project to achieve platinum sales, but that isn’t what makes it so rare these days. It’s rarity stems from iconic graffiti artist Banksy hand painting one hundred copies of the album. As you can imagine, the value of these “paintings” increases tenfold each decade. If you have a copy, hang on to it for a while longer.
The Beatles — Yesterday and Today (1966)
Another day, another rare collectible from The Beatles. This time around, we’re talking about ‘Yesterday and Today’, which was released in 1966. In an attempt to be edgy, a version of the album cover featured the band pretending to be butchers, with dolls all around them, most of which had severed heads. Fans were not happy at all, so Capitol recalled a million copies from retail. A couple were snatched up before it was reissued, and today is worth over $15 000.
