Oscar and Grammy-winning producer T Bone Burnett made headlines when he introduced a new music format—Ionic Original—said to offer the greatest fidelity and durability ever available on an analog record. Bob Dylan recorded Blowin' In The Wind on a one-copy-only disc of this format.
The price reached by that one-copy-only disc was exceptional too, better say quite ridiculous: 1.2 million pounds ($1.44 million). Fees brought the final price to 1.482 million pounds ($2 millions).
