When was Try first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 2002, in Belgium, UK, UK & Ireland, Italy and more. One of them is Freestyle Records FS 2027, released September 16, 2002.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use FS 2027, FS2027, NUX 53, NUX51) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, FS 2027-A- and FS 2027-B-. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Try 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.
