The first few times I saw the cover to #1 RECORD, I kept thinking "That looks *really* familiar..." Finally, it clicked: the LP remainder bins in my dad's store in the late '70s had been filled with 49-cent copies of #1 RECORD.
I guess record collector mags, such as Goldmine, could provide the information, but I am sure someone on the Audites list would probably know what an original pressing of #1 Record or Radio City would be worth these days. (Just curious...I don't have one....)
Incidently, I was in a local record store that has a pretty good vinyl selection and I saw a Japanese vinyl reissue of Radio City. It was pretty cool to see the cover in its full 12 x 12 glory. Prior to that, I had only seen the cover from CD reissues.
I have been enjoying the discussion on Big Star / In Space. I enjoy most of the Big Star output and some of Alex's solo work, so chances are good that I will pick up In Space.
