Questions

How many vinyl pressings of España are there?

When was España first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1968, in US, Mexico. One of them is Decca DL 710160.

How do I tell if my copy of España is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DL 710160, LPI-251) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MG 711640 and MG 711641. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is España on vinyl worth?

It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
