No offense, Danny, but this is the funniest thing I've seen on IDM for
a good long while now. I, too, would certainly love a copy of
"Newbuild." (I'd just settle for a copy of the "Quadrastate" EP,
though.) "Newbuild" probably takes the trophy as the single most
desired trainspotter item in dance music history. Which is
unsurprising, considering that every track on it is an acid house
masterpiece. Unfortunately, I think you'd have to offer substantially
more than your _entire_ trade list below to score a copy of
Newbuild. It's as close as vinyl gets to being priceless. Damn the
pesky label that put it out in the first place, anyway! Not only have
they been total patootie-heads about rereleasing the record or
releasing the pressing rights back to 808 State, but they never even
pressed it on CD, so we can't make high-quality bootlegs of it! Grrr...

I didn't know these early 808 releases were so rare.
I have various bits of vinyl from around that period which I don't play very
much any more, including 808/Gerald material. I would be interested to know
what they might be worth. Your message indicates that they might be quite
valuable.
Can you tell me of any other early acid/techno rarities/valuables that I
should know about and might also have lurking in my collection?
