The market for collectible alternative albums is virtually untapped - a resource of unlimited wealth just waiting for you to claim a chunk of the change. Now you can pocket the profits with help from the Goldmine Price Guide to Alternative Records.For the first time ever, nearly 12,000 recordings by alternative music's front runners have been valued and priced in three grades of condition. That's 36,000 prices for recordings by 900 alternative artists from 1976 to 1996.
Annoyingly left out certain key underground artists so as to include...Madonna?
Also, I found this guide had so overestimated the values of the records listed that it was of no use to me. Oddly enough, now, 11-odd years later, those same prices are probably just about accurate.
