...Which reminds me of a story I heard some years back from an American
friend who's a bit of a name on the obscure metal scene (!). The leader of a
little-known band from Backofbeyondsville, US, died, and was allegedly
buried with the remaining copies of his band's stupidly collectable album.
Two collectors were ∗apparently∗ all for exhuming him to retrieve the rare
vinyl (do they know nothing about bodily fluids?), although I believe it
never happened. For which we should all be truly grateful.
