Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Aline are there?

27 vinyl pressings of Aline are listed here, from 11 countries, released between 1965 and 1982.

When was Aline first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1965, in France, UK, Italy, Brazil and more. One of them is Disc'Az AZ 1202.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use AZ 1202, VRS 7003, J 35078 X 45, 1088) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AZ AZ 1202 PPN 2189 380 and AZ AZ 1202 PPN 2190 380. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Aline 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.
