If You Have Any Of These Classic Vinyl Records, You're Actually Holding On To a Small Fortune

U2, Pride (In The Name Of Love)

Arguably U2's most iconic album, Pride (In The Name Of Love), was released in 1984 with Festival Records. Though the record was pressed and distributed worldwide, it's the Australian copies that will get you the most money - some sell for more than $9,000. There are only about 50 copies of the coveted translucent vinyl, but don't ask Bono to sign it; he doesn't actually love this song.

Irish Roots

U2 has always been a politically-informed, equality-seeking band. Known best for the track "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and their Live Aid performance, lead singer Bono has solidified himself as a socially-conscious rocker. Their fifth album, Joshua Tree, brought them success outside of Europe.
