Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Woodstock are there?

When was Woodstock first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1970, in UK, Australia, Belgium, France and more. One of them is UNI Records UNS 526, released July 1970.
How do I tell if my copy of Woodstock is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use UNS 526, UNS.526, MCA 1175, 6073 015) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7-1194 and 7-1195. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Woodstock 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.
