Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Radio-Aktivität are there?

When was Radio-Aktivität first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1975, in Germany, UK, US, Philippines and more. One of them is Kling Klang 1C 062-82 087.

How do I tell if my copy of Radio-Aktivität is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 1C 062-82 087, 1 C 062-82 087, E-ST 11457, E ST 11457) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 82 087A-1 and 82 087B-1. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Radio-Aktivität 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.
