I've also been there. I generally try and sell off a few dupes I've had around to soften the blow. Sometimes just selling things off I'll never miss in order to pay for those "must haves". It's worth it to have those special things in minty shape, and you are worth it. Tell yourself that!

wow.. I don't want this one particularly I'm not into BTO enough (though if I came across a cheap enough copy I'd go for it of course who wouldn't!) but dearie me the prices these things are going for on eBay is quite something.. people literally must have more money than sense.. some QQ-ers think I am profligate with my spending but $306 US is roughly £230 at the moment and in an average month I can pick up a load of albums on various formats in Stereo/Quad/5.1 for that kind of money, its mad! :yikes

Well, there is a song on the album called Gimme Your Money Please. I think it applied in this case.

My favourite BTO Album is the first album . Love "Blue Collar " the hit single. I find the rest of their albums a little hard core , but still worthwhile .
Don't think I'd pay that much for it though . (Oh yeah don't play CD-4 anymore---a great reason not to collect 'em.)
Looks like a very good disc though.

Wonder why Mercury Records doesn't re-issue them ? They have released other surround titles like Rush , Allman Bros. and recently Alan Parsons ?
They seem willing, maybe the artist has to drive the demand ? Oh well in time perhaps.

I love BTO! They were very popular in the midwest US during the 70's. Everybody I knew had BTO playing in their cars. A nice clean Quad SACD of them would be an instant purchase for me.
