Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Tijuana Moods are there?

64 vinyl pressings of Tijuana Moods are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1962 and 2023.

When was Tijuana Moods first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1962, in UK, Canada, France, Germany and more. One of them is RCA Victor SF-7514.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SF-7514, LPM-2533, LSP-2533, 430.537 S) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, N2PY-1337-IG and N2PY-1338-IG. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Tijuana Moods 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.
