Brute Force — King of Fuh (1969)
This album was printed by Apple Recordings, the label of The Beatles. Can you believe that it was almost not released? It nearly happened because of some obscenity in the lyrics. When EMI and Capitol expressed a lack of interest in the record, The Beatles wanted to release it on their own. In 2010, they gave it a proper release date. That is nearly five decades since its first recording! However, you can only get the $5,000 if you have a copy from the original release.

Elton John — I’ve Been Loving You (1968)
This was the debut record of Elton John himself! Bernie Taupin, his collaborator, received credit for writing the lyrics. However, Elton John later admitted that he was the one to compose them. He handed Bernie the credit to help him with his first publishing royalties. This is a rare single, but you have a sizable fortune if you own the rare copy released exclusively in Portugal. That version comes with “Angel Tree” and “Thank You for All Your Loving”. You can get $5,000 for it!
