Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Beck-Ola are there?

86 vinyl pressings of Beck-Ola are listed here, from 16 countries, released between 1969 and 2025.

When was Beck-Ola first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1969, in UK, US, Japan, Australia and more. One of them is Columbia SCX 6351, released November 1969.

How do I tell if my copy of Beck-Ola is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SCX 6351, SX 6351, BN 26478, OP-8814) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, YEX 3870-1 and YEX 3871-1. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Beck-Ola 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.
