by Jackson Browne · 1973

68 vinyl pressings of For Everyman are listed here, from 16 countries, released between 1973 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 1973, in US, UK, Brazil, Canada and more. One of them is Asylum Records SD 5067, released October 1973.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SD 5067, SD-5067, SYL 9013, ASYLP 50.001) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 1 SD 5067 A 2 I S and 1 SD 5067 B3 P TML. 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.
