28 vinyl pressings of Andy Gibb's Greatest Hits are listed here, from 22 countries, released between 1980 and 1981.
The earliest pressings are from 1980, in US, UK, Australia, Brazil and more. One of them is RSO RX-1-3091.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RX-1-3091, 2394 287, L 37503, RS-1-3091) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, RX-1-3091 AS and RX-1-3091 BS. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
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.
