Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Blue Train are there?
199 vinyl pressings of Blue Train are listed here, from 18 countries, released between 1958 and 2026.
When was Blue Train first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1958, in US. One of them is Blue Note BLP 1577, released January 1958.
How do I tell if my copy of Blue Train is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BLP 1577) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, RVG BN-LP-1577-A... P 9 M and RVG P BN-LP-1577-B... 9 M. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Blue Train 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.
