Vinyl pressings

56 vinyl pressings of Cannonball's Bossa Nova are listed here, from 21 countries, released between 1963 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in US, Australia, Ecuador, France and more. One of them is Riverside Records RM 455.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RM 455, RS 9455, 12 10113, DDL 99990) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, RM 455 A M HG 142 A CDK and RM 455 B M HG 142 B CDK. 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.
