JOHN LENNON – MIND GAMES: SELLS FOR UP TO $250 (£193)

John Lennon’s third solo album, Mind Games, released in 1973, continues to attract attention from collectors. A sealed copy fetched $250 (£193) on eBay this February, while standard editions in decent shape can still command respectable prices—around $70 (£54) today. Though it wasn’t Lennon’s most critically acclaimed work at the time, its legacy has grown steadily over the years.

Beyond autographed first pressings, the most valuable edition is a limited Grammy Award-winning reissue released last year. Only 1,000 copies were produced, each selling at launch for a hefty $1,745 (£1,350). These deluxe reissues are the holy grail for fans and collectors alike. If you’re checking your copy’s value, platforms like Discogs and eBay listings are helpful, or you can consult a trusted vinyl expert.

NAT KING COLE – L-O-V-E: VALUED AT $250 (£193)

Nat King Cole’s L-O-V-E carries deep sentimental value, being the final studio album recorded by the beloved jazz icon before his passing in 1965. This emotional weight, combined with Cole’s timeless vocal charm, keeps the album in steady demand among collectors and fans. Its place in music history makes it more than just a record—it’s a cherished farewell from one of jazz’s greats.

A sealed copy of L-O-V-E can command up to $250 (£193), and even well-kept used versions fetch respectable prices on the resale market. While not especially rare, its significance and condition play a major role in its value. If you’re unsure what your copy is worth, resources like Discogs or a visit to a reputable record shop can offer solid guidance.
