Another month, another chance to rifle through your old CD collection to see what the most wanted items in the format are on Discogs for June 2025.
With the UK summer festival season truly underway – Download Festival and Parklife taking place this week, and the mighty Glastonbury Festival at the end of the month – has that led to a change in what items users of the online marketplace are after? Or, is it much the same as last month?
We’ve taken a look once again at the most wanted items on compact disc, and compact disc only (no LPs featuring CDs this time), to bring to you this month's essential items for collectors. And as always, if you’re in the market to sell or buy one, a word of caution.
Prices regarding musical releases can and do fluctuate, so keep an eye on both the highest price an item has sold for when looking through your catalogue you’ve uploaded to Discogs, and more importantly, take a look at the median (average) sales prices. Just because someone wants a certain release, doesn’t mean that it might be worth the fortune you think.
Maybe keep it in that instance?

14. Nirvana - In Utero (DGC, Sub Pop DGCD-24607)
Following the colossal success of Nevermind, In Utero was a deliberate shift back to a more abrasive, less polished sound, reflecting Kurt Cobain's discomfort with mainstream stardom. Despite its rawer edge, it still produced iconic singles like Heart-Shaped Box and All Apologies. For many UK fans, In Utero is considered a more authentic and artistically profound statement than its predecessor, making it an essential and highly cherished part of their CD collection. 🔎 3243 wants | Getty Images/Discogs

15. Nirvana - Nevermind (DGC, Sub Pop DGCD-24425)
Still topping the CD-only Most Wanted on Discogs, Nevermind was a global phenomenon, and its impact in the UK was immense, shifting the musical landscape towards grunge and away from hair metal. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" became an anthem. Its enduring relevance and critical acclaim mean it remains a staple in any rock fan's CD collection, regardless of its original US pressing. 🔎 6209 wants | Getty Images/Discogs
