Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Dionne are there?

37 vinyl pressings of Dionne are listed here, from 21 countries, released between 1972 and 1975.

When was Dionne first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1972, in US, UK, Argentina, Australia and more. One of them is Warner Bros. Records BS 2585.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BS 2585, 46140, K46140, 13.005) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S40057 and S40058. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Dionne 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.
