[www.Discogs.com] , [www.eBay.com] , [www.eBay.com] , [www.eBay.com] . Currently 26 for sale - [www.Discogs.com] - but most of them are the different Australian RS-3006, not the rare U.S. RSD-1.

I have a couple of the Aussie ones, and a fake of the actual US version. Two hundred were rumoured to be printed of each and given to radio stations.
You have to be really careful when buying as there are fakes out there.
I almost pulled the trigger on one in Fair condition for $350 on Ebay but decided not to. Wondering if I made the right decision but this thing was grotty.

Are the Aussie albums legitimate releases?

I've probably said this already, but a reprint of this would make a great Record Store Day item. It's even got the ideal serial number prefix.

I own both, and the RSM-1 is acknowledged in the collecting world to be the rarer of the 2 LPs.
There were approximately 12-15 RSM-1s signed by the whole band (except Bill signed for Charlie!) at a press event in October(?) 69. There were also hand-alterations to the publishing printing on the back covers of some of the RSM-1s, because publishing credits were either wrong or unauthorized, as I recall. www.stonesondecca.com will tell all.
The RSD-1 (US version) is known to be much more available, but also much more counterfeited. The phakes tend not to have matrixes.
Jan Richardsson's incredible Stones on Decca is the state of the art website to research these.

I have posted this before in another thread, same topic. I had two of these albums in my hands at two different times. It was at second coming records, mass Ave in Cambridge ma back in the late 1980s. Both times I convinced myself that a bootleg of a show was worth more than a compilation. Damn. Anyways I have a question, if this was a promo album for American radio stations for the upcoming American tour, why is Brian on the cover? When was the tour planned? When was the album made?

I would say b/c all of the songs have Brian Jones on them (except for Love In Vain).

SS...are these the most valuable in your collection? How long have you had them and when did you get them?

Treacle, blessings upon you!!!! No, I am blessed to have been lucky enough to pick up other things that eclipse these, though RSM is in the top 10!!!
I obtained the RSD-1 in 1995 and the RSM-1 in about 2007, I think.
IMPORTANT to all - beware of phakes!!!!!!
Treacle, shine on you crazy diamond!!!!!

One is selling on discogs for $220 without the cover though. I wonder if that's worth a purchase.
