Jean-Michel Jarre – Music for Supermarkets

In 1983, Parisian artists collaborated to create an exhibition that had supermarkets as a theme. Jean-Michel Jarre, the experimental electronic composer, was invited to join the project, where he produced a single record called ‘Music for Supermarkets.’ This was his work of art, one which was bought at the time of the exhibition for $14,000, which becomes $33,500 with inflation today. The master plates were trashed by Jarre, so there is no doubt that this is the sole copy.

Ferris Wheel – Supernatural Girl

While you might not know what ‘stoner-folk’ is, or who Ferris Wheel are, but obviously they are a big deal if their one record is worth $15,000. If its sleeve is the original one, has the ‘blakeyburch’ copyright seal of approval, and is jet-black in color, then you could stand to earn $15,000 yourself! Then there is the fact that this record sleeve’s pocket opens at the top of the sleeve, rather than the right side.
