Aren’t the original pressings of the Martzy EMI records much more expensive? I don’t buy any top of the food chain records as an investment. If you watch the market for "rare" records over time, you will see that some stuff commands a big price, then drops. (Not always, but I’m not looking for "blue chip" records, I’m after stuff I ’m interested in musically). Buy it if you want it to listen to it, not because it is an investment.
