Your 'holy grail' records? (any genre)

What are the records you would like to own but possibly never will (unless you were to pay silly money for them)? I don't mean for the purpose of re-selling them or solely for the reason that they are rare / collectable, more stuff you really want but for whatever reason it's hard to track down a copy.

Some of mine are:
DMZ001 + DMZ002
Groove Chronicles - Another Endless Groove (The Power) EP
Dem 2 - Boston Experiments EP
Kromestar - Jasmine / Trust (dunno why this is is so hard to come by?!)
Loads of grime stuff pressed in small numbers but DJ Marsta - Hollow takes the cake in terms of rarity. I've only ever known of one copy of this to exist so starting to wonder if it ever got past the test press stage lol.

Most of these are for sale on Discogs for £££ but I find I find it's always more satisfying to be patient and wait for a bargain to show up.

What are your 'holy grail' records?

I'm glad he's a bit more focussed with his releases now. For years it seemed like he'd sign tracks with whatever label would put them out there. Some of his back catalogue is pretty hard to track down!

Wanted Rumours & Revolutions for a long time, its not overly pricey but still a lot for one tune. Its by far my favourite zombles tune tho.
