Never believed in Cracks until proof of it was found. You’re telling me that some anonymous source DOXXES you, gives you a copy AND THEN YOU LISTEN TO HIM? If someone gave me a 4K UHD render of MAMF I would IMMEDIATELY post it here
Tinkerbell's Fairydust: The Wood Spryte Goes to Boompsyland
When I saw that on someone's want list, I thought it had to be a fake! You see, just as Rand McNally put fake streets on their maps to protect their copyright, a lot of record collectors put "ringers" in their want lists to catch out others just copy-pasting stuff from them without doing any research on the albums in question.
As it turns out, Tinkerbell's Fairydust were a very real band, who recorded two singles and an album for Decca (UK). I think I heard somewhere that there was some involvement from guitarist Andy Summers (later of the Police), but I might be confusing them with someone else. Their album was definitely withdrawn by Decca after only a microquantity (like, four or five copies) was pressed, making it an instant rarity. Their album has since been reissued a couple of times.
The only fake thing about this, I am sad to say, is that album title. Where on Earth did it come from?

The album title sounds like something that was made as a joke.

I mentioned this before in another thread and got some flak for it given all the controversy behind it, but might as well give it a go...
Go For A Punch/Saki Sanobashi. Yes, really.
BUT with the caveat that Go For A Punch is actually someone misremembering the ultra-grimdark 1986 hentai OVA "Feast of the Fallen Angels", which does have violent gory scenes and a prolonged scene where a character is sexually assaulted in a basement that vaguely resembles a public bathroom or locker room, along with another scene where someone's head is violently crushed.
The fake titles of "Go For A Punch" or "Saki Sanobashi" could be a case of the bootlegged copy of "Feast of the Fallen Angels" being mislabeled/given a fake title or mishearing a bit of dialog as the gibberish "Saki Sanobashi"
The guy on Reddit who claimed he was the "Saki OP" and made everything up was a troll who had no real evidence (and I honestly suspect Saki OP was Chris Able, another troll who DID go out of his way to fake evidence, even creating fake screenshots based on an actual defunct hentai site)
The actual 4chan user from 2015 probably downloaded a copy of Feast of the Fallen Angels from a pirate website or saw it on either a porn site or a pirate video streaming site in 2011 and was shocked at what he saw (even by the standards of 80's and 90's hentai, Feast of the Fallen Angels is seen as extremely rough) and misremembered some of the details when he talked about it on 4chan a few years later.
Here's the thing, I'm not alone in this theory, as there's at least one major blog that mentions this as a possibility.
So it's not "Fake Lost Media" per se, but "Misremembered Obscure Media"
