And here's a bonus from John - What makes Paul McCartney’s Ram album worth $5,000.00? Ram is the only Paul McCartney LP credited to Paul and Linda McCartney. If you have the album on Apple records as a monaural copy, it could be worth up to $5000. Monaural is only listed on the record, and not on the cover.
