Junior McCants – Try Me For Your New Love / She Wrote It I Read It
Junior McCants, like many of the artists on this list, was tragically taken from this world far too soon at the age of 24. His life’s works immediately became highly prized and protected when cancer claimed him in 1967, weeks before Try Me For Your New Love / She Wrote It I Read It was released. Its circulation quickly ended when the label decided to withhold it. Record experts report that those in possession of the few copies that remained in public hands will sell for anywhere between $7,500 and $15,000.

A mint condition first pressing with the banana intact sold for $25,200, a testament to the album’s lasting impact on rock and art.
