Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Vol. 1 are there?

17 vinyl pressings of Vol. 1 are listed here, from 7 countries, released between 1997 and 2000.

When was Vol. 1 first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1997, in Italy, UK, Belgium, France and more. One of them is Downtown Base DTR 1133.

How do I tell if my copy of Vol. 1 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DTR 1133, DTR 1138, 12TIV-83, EM 03) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Vol. 1 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.
