17 vinyl pressings of Emile Jacotey are listed here, from 4 countries, released between 1975 and 2026.
The earliest pressings are from 1975, in France, Canada, Italy. One of them is Philips 9101 012.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 9101 012, 9120 033 A) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, C16 H PHI 9101012 1 380 CIDIS and C4 PHI 9101012 2 380 CIDIS. 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.
