Most of us probably have some of these. List some records that you want that are eiter:
  • Rare
  • Out of Print
  • Ridiculously expensive
  • Some of the above
  • All of the above

Here's one that comes to mind:

Out of print, and i havn't seen it for under $50 so far, and to get it in sweden is just impossible.
Live in Japan 1966. Coltrane, Coltrane, Sanders, Garrisson & Ali. 4 CD's, 6 ridiculously long "songs" of total free-but-not-too-free-jazz Cool

Oddly enough, "babacar" is the title of a song by France Gall, which was a big hit in France :
The bassist is Jannick Top (Magma)...

The connections run deeper than that even - Thompson & Williams also contributed to Shelleyan Orphan's Humroot album, along with Soave from Presence (more Cure connections in that band - founded by two founder members of The Cure and a Cure roadie); the Orphan's second album was produced by Cure producer David Allen, and their debut album, Helleborine, featured two members of the Kate Bush Band (including Paddy). Both Presence and Shelleyan Orphan toured with The Cure. For a prog-related connection, Babacar & Shelleyan Orphan singer Caroline Crawley contributed to This Mortal Coil's Blood album with a Syd Barrett cover.

maudlin Of The Well was out of print, but now they are being re-issued! Anglagard is also out of print ( I think), because at my local record store, I asked for Anglagard and the shop owner said they have been out of print for a while.

I think Änglagård's records were reissued not too long ago (a few years maybe), but maybe those went out of print aswell LOL
Never heard them, though, but they seem exciting!

Chicago punk band The Effigies put out three excellent albums on the Enigma label in the 80s (For Ever Grounded, Fly on a Wire, Ink). They went out of print, and have never been issued on CD.   I have old LPs, but I'd love to have them on CD.  A lot of great stuff released on that label has vanished indefinitely, it seems.

Don Shinn (organist) made a solo album called (I think) Temples of Phrophets which despite years of searching, I've never been able to locate a copy.
Tender Lugers only album Johnny Orgy (I owned it on vinyl and erm...lost it)
Noel Coward (yes really) recorded an album called The Girl Who Came to Supper (just him and a piano - it's beyond brilliant BTW) and yes, I had the vinyl version and see above

You can get both albums here:  http://www.alvarsdotter.com/Welcome.html.
I got Epilog there last year.
A bit expensive, but probably worth it.

If anyone knows anyplace that CD or LP versions of these lie, I'd be grateful followed by angry as I was doing so well at saving my money.

^ I didn't know that Jean Louis was OOP - you can try e-mailing the band to see if they have any still in stock, I think their contact info is on their MySpace. But Wayside (where I bought my copy) is indeed out of stock.

I share Frippism's pain RE: Cardiacs. A few others from my list that I have resigned to probably never owning:

The Dear Hunter: Branches EP
Guruh Gipsy
Peter Hammill - The Fall of the House of Usher
Quasar Lux Symphoniae - anything
Graduate - Acting My Age (Curt and Roland pre-Tears for Fears)

^ I'm not implying it is out of print, I'm just unable to find it anywhere. I'm not great at looking for stuff beyond Amazon, eBay and Wayside.

Oh, and the Cardiacs pain is also mutual Unhappy

Yeah, the owner said they've been out of print for the second time now. LOLUnhappy Hybris is a masterpiece. They only have two studio albums, but definitely start there if you haven't listened to them. Love your Daydream Nation avatar, by the way - my favourite Sonic Youth album. Cross The Breeze is extremely frantic, I love it.
