Questions

How many vinyl pressings of I Got Lucky are there?

When was I Got Lucky first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1971, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is RCA Camden CAL-2533, released October 1971.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CAL-2533, INT 1322, OCL-2533, CALX-2533) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ACRM 5837 2S I B2 and ACRM 5838 2S i B1. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is I Got Lucky 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.
