The Index -- "Fire Eyes" (1968)
The Index were a peripheral part of the great '60s Detroit scene. This album was allegedly recorded in a basement at home. Supposedly 100 copies were sold and the rest thrown out by the parents of the band members when they moved out of the house.
An original of the album was recently offered on eBay for over $3,000.
