John Lennon & Yoko Ono — Double Fantasy (1980)

Although Yoko Ono has never been revered for her singing voice, when she paired up with Beatle John Lennon for ‘Double Fantasy’ in 1980, fans and critics were in great appreciation of its artistic merit. Unfortunately, this isn’t the only reason it is so highly valued. It is also one of the last recordings Lennon did before his tragic murder. Astonishingly, a signed copy from just a few hours before it happened fetched $150 000 in 1999.

The Beatles — Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967)

There’s a slight caveat with this particular album that we should mention first. Although ‘Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ was a popular release, the original vinyl is not worth quite as much as one that has one or more signatures of the band on it. In 2013, one seller was looking for a five figure payday when he put a signed copy up for auction. Instead, he walked away with nearly $300 000, and a massive smile on his face for weeks to come.
