50 vinyl pressings of Hall Of The Mountain Grill are listed here, from 19 countries, released between 1974 and 2025.
The earliest pressings are from 1974, in UK, US, Japan, Malaysia and more. One of them is United Artists Records UAG 29672, released September 1974.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use UAG 29672, UA-LA328-G, LLS-80068, UA-LA-328-G) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, UAG 29672 A-2U and UAG 29672 B-2U. 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.
