Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Bayou Country are there?

180 vinyl pressings of Bayou Country are listed here, from 37 countries, released between 1969 and 2025.

When was Bayou Country first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1969, in US, UK, Australia, Denmark and more. One of them is Fantasy 8387, released January 5, 1969.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 8387, FANT-8387, F-8387, LBS 83261) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, F-2715 H and F-2716 H. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Bayou Country 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.
