A lucky gentleman by the name of Warren Hill, from Montreal, was able to get ahold of this classic vinyl album for a measly 75 cents when he happened to spot it on a sidewalk sale in New York back in 2002. His excitement was flowing simply because he wanted to enjoy the music, not because he got it for dirt cheap.

Once he learned that it was a rare EP demo that the group did for Colombia Records in 1966, he nearly lost his mind! It also happened to be the only known copy of that session. He posted it on eBay and the final bid came out to $25,000!
