Rare CD: Skinny Puppy - ERROR


"Skinny Puppy / Sinead O'Connor - CD Single with RARE ERROR: The CD, insert and inlay all say that this is a Skinny Puppy CD single. But, when it's played instead of hearing Skinny Puppy's "Worlock", "Tin Omen" or "Brak Talk", you hear Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U"

People are willing to pay a lot for mistakes! This CD single containing the wrong artist sold for $395.00 on ebay (13 bids).

Rare CD?: Kings of Leon "Aha Shake Heartbreak" - ERROR

I am posting an email I got regarding an unusual version of this Kings of Leon CD...we'd love to hear from anyone with some info on this...Bill

"Hi,

I'd appreciate your opinion on a CD I have. Outwardly it appears to be the Kings of Leon CD 'Aha Shake Heartbreak' which seems to have a perfect CD booklet and CD image. However, the music is classic pop and country & western tunes redone in German (I think). I understand that this does happen occasionally during the manufacturing process but my questions are:

1. Just how rare are CDs like this?
2. Does it have any value over and above the second hand value of a perfect album?
3. Where on the net would I go to find people that might see it as valuable?

I presume that the music on the CD, albeit the wrong music, also affects the value and in my case it may lower the value considerably!!"

Rare CD/DVD: Tool "Salival" - ERROR

There is one sure fire way to make the price of a product increase: made a few typos. That is what happened with this combo CD/DVD from Tool. Check it out:

"This item is THE SUPER RARE 1ST PRINTING [Decembern 12, 2000] with the typos and printing errors in the booklet...

The first pressings of Salival contain typographical errors. Later editions do not have these typos.

1) Aloke Dutta and Paul D'Amour's names are misspelled as Aloke Dutto and Paul D'Mour.
2) "Pushit" and "Stinkfist" are listed as two words.
3) "Message to Harry Manback II" is spelled "Messege to Harry Manback II."
4) The playing order of the videos are in reverse order.
5) The track ordering of "Merkaba" and "You Lied" is incorrect.
6) Also...The front of the booklet included with the package has a small glossy square on its front.

Again this is an EXTREMELY rare item that any true collector must have."
