I will definitely not pick this up as the price tag is ominous...
Yea the problem is it comes from across the pond, that postage has been expensive since Covid days. My total came to about USD102. I will say since 2020, this is only my 3rd order from BurningShed or KScope.....Regarding the album, I'm always onboard for PT live material as it's always recorded very well and SW mixing is excellent. Considering this might be their last tour if the "Closure" part comes true, I'm glad I ordered it....Probably will be a USD200 record minimum if they don't tour again.

And an article from a post on SteveHoffam Forums, in case you haven't seen it.

On the Atomic Rooster, seems out to lunch. There is no other info other than vinyl is shinny......I suspect this has not been repressed? If not and this is the only issue available then has some value but based on previous sales not that much.

On the Discogs article, I've not read it but have seen other threads about it on SHF. My take is this is about the Sellers, and sure it suxs that it is costing them more to do business on Discogs but that could be happening everywhere these days.
I don't shop records on eBay, mainly due to my guess is sellers are not well informed. I like Discogs because you get more info on the record via the database and have a very good idea what you are buying.
At the end of the day if the Seller does not like my offer then that's fine.

If you guys wanna see how valuable records can get, this Sunday 11/12 at 10am AZ time, The In Groove from Phoenix is having a monster auction of a ton of still sealed MOFI, Japanese pressings and rare stuff. He does these on WhatNot, so go there and search for "theingroove". I have bought a few things on his past auctions......But I think this Sunday will be the biggest he has ever done. He's auctioning off about 230 albums from a consignment lot, here is Mike's preview video of what will sell....I promise you some of this stuff will go for 4 digits. Shocked

I was at that ELP - High Voltage performance and have never purchased a copy of the live album or listened to it ever again. I was happy to be there and it was a great festival, lots of brilliant bands. Shame it didn't continue. Dream Theater headlined the following year and then after a run of 2 it died. They were only selling about 50% of the capacity and it was unsustainable sadly. I did get to see the Carl Palmer band at a later festival and that was way more fun. In fact any of them playing in some solo incarnation over the last 20 years was better than ELP at High Voltage. Too many issues and Palmer refused to even consider continuing with the band any longer (don't blame him)

I've done a few. Don't really have the time I'd like to make it a habit. If/when I write, I write original material like lyrics, poems or stories.

Here's a few.

Off-topic here but I'm curious, JD, how things have been going with your thoughts about maybe writing reviews in somehow 
mysterious way.

It is a very good article and it explains a lot for why individual sellers and business owners have astronomical shipping prices.
Discogs raised prices because of tax support and privacy protection Internet costs? I don’t buy it. They are just getting greedy, cutting corners and trying to have a more cost efficient relationship with their customers. Discogs is currently charging 9% commission costs. That is insane. My god. It is no wonder my music purchases have gone way way down.

Again. Great article though. As a consumer you can certainly learn a lot here.
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣
