Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Lieder are there?

When was Lieder first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1955, in Germany. One of them is His Master's Voice WALP 1295.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use WALP 1295) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 2XEA 757-2 MADE IN GERMANY and 2XEA 758-1 MADE IN GERMANY. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Lieder 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.
