Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Revolución are there?
28 vinyl pressings of Revolución are listed here, from 14 countries, released between 1971 and 1977.
When was Revolución first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1971, in US, Australia, Brazil, Canada and more. One of them is Kapp Records KS 3640.
How do I tell if my copy of Revolución is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use KS 3640, MAP/S 4495, MAP/S-4495, 245013) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, KS-3640-A T1 JcS 211 and KS-3640-B 2111 JcS. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Revolución 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.
