Manic Top 30 Collectables

Trying to choose which release would make it into this listing was not easy, not helped by the fact that the Manics popularity has risen quite steeply over the past 2-3 years hence prices for certain items have been and still are, quite hefty.
Just because an item had a limited pressing doesn't automatically suggest it will become a mega rarity later on down the track - for some, such as the legendary "Suicide Alley" it has been the aura surrounding it that makes it stand out.
Unfortunately a fair percentage of "rare" recordings are promotional items or studio acetates etc. which the "ordinary" fan  wouldn't know about but for hard-core collectors these items are what we fork out an incredible amount of money for. As you can see, these make up a fair portion of this listing with the "standard" releases scattered infrequently in between.
