19 vinyl pressings of Hillbilly DeLuxe are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1987 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 1987, in US, Australia & New Zealand, Canada, Europe and more. One of them is Reprise Records Nashville 9 25567-1.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 9 25567-1, 25567-1, 92 55671, 925 567-1) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 1-25567-A SR-2 [SRC logo] MASTERED BY CAPITOL and 1-25567-B SR-2 [SRC logo] MASTERED BY CAPITOL. 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.
