(Radio.com) A new round of Guinness World Records has been compiled for 2017 and Beatles legend Ringo Starr has made the list, but it's not for reasons fans might expect.

His copy of the Beatles self-titled record, a.k.a. the "White Album", has been recognized as the most expensive record ever sold at auction, according to The Vinyl Factory.

Starr held onto his first edition number '0000001' copy of the record, he never played it, and kept it in a vault until the December, 2015 auction. Read more here.
