If You Have Any Of These Classic Vinyl Records, You're Actually Holding On To a Small Fortune

David Bowie, David Bowie

David Bowie's self-titled debut was released in 1967 under Deram Records in London. The content of this record has virtually no resemblance to his later eclectic style that he was known for. If you're partial to Ziggy Stardust or Space Oddity, you'll find this record jarring. However, it sells for $6,000 today.

Wings, Love is Strange

Paul McCartney's band, Wings, covered this song by Mickey and Sylvia in 1971 and featured it on their debut album, Wild Life. Wings was McCartney's project after The Beatles, and his wife, Linda, was featured among the band members. A version of Love is Strange sells for $5,000.
