There's no prize, other than your own satisfaction, but since Mike B. started it, let's see just how many official copies of "Tijuana Taxi" that you own. Count all formats and any compilations, singles, EPs, official interviews, plastic inserts in music books - as long as it's not homemade, or a CD-R made by you or anyone else.
Here's Mike's original post in the 'eBay madness' thread:

Mike Blakesley said:I never thought of that....I thought he was talking about the fact that the same songs get repeated over and over and over and over and over again on every compilation.
I've lost count of how many copies I have of, say, "Tijuana Taxi."
Let's see...off the top of my head, I have it on:
LP Going Places
8 track Going Places
CD Going Places (Japanese)
CD Going Places (American)
8 track Greatest Hits
LP Greatest Hits
CD Greatest Hits
CD A&M New Gold Series
CD Definitive Hits
CD Very Best of Herb (Canadian)
CD Classics Vol. 1
LP Foursider
CD Foursider
Not to mention it's on a couple of my own homemade compilations!
...and I'm not even an uber-collector who has it on 45s, import LPs, promo copies, reel-to-reels, cassettes, etc. Come on everyone, who's got the most copies of "Tijuana Taxi?"
