22 vinyl pressings of Deep Inside are listed here, from 7 countries, released between 1993 and 2026.
The earliest pressings are from 1993, in US, Italy, Netherlands. One of them is Strictly Rhythm SR EP2, released June 30, 1993.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SR EP2, UMM 117, UMM 114, NT 6704075) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SR-EP 2-A Dmm Europadisk NY USA S1 and SR-EP 2-B - Re 2 S2 Dmm Europadisk NY USA. 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.
