Vinyl pressings
by Mano Negra · 1989
Puta's Fever was first pressed on vinyl in 1989. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.

19 vinyl pressings of Puta's Fever are listed here, from 12 countries, released between 1989 and 2018.
The earliest pressings are from 1989, in France, US, Australasia, Canada and more. One of them is Virgin 70721.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 70721, 91352-1, V 2608, VL 3086) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, M6 362800 2 70 721 A 1 and M6 362801 2 70 721 B 1. 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.
