This particular record is one of 900 stereo edtions on Parlophone made from the mother stampers designated 1R and 1G.

David Bowie is here again. In the #2 spot, the original Mercury U.S. 45 from "Man Who Sold The World" bids past $3.7k.

The next two entries are new to the list and both are very rare soul and funk LP's. The first, a private press LP out of Indiana from Uncle Funkenstein sells for almost $3.4k. In the #4 spot, the never released Dynamic Five promo LP peaks a third of the way past $3.3k.

Lastly, another recent visitor to the list, Led Zeppelin's entire catalog on 12" 45 RPM 200 gram records, "The Road Box" sells for a little more than $3.3k
