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

The Quarrymen, That'll Be The Day

In 1958, Kensington Records released the first single from Paul McCartney's band before he was a Beatle. He, John, and George had their own project before adding in Ringo and forming the supergroup we know them as. That'll Be The Day is a Buddy Holly cover, but there were 50 copies pressed for friends and family that are worth around $3,500 today.
