28 vinyl pressings of Listen To Cliff! are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1961 and 2017.
The earliest pressings are from 1961, in UK, US, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Columbia SCX 3375, released May 1961.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SCX 3375, 33SX 1320, ABC 391, ABCS-391) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, YAX 699-2 and YAX 700-3. 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.
