Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Dr. Feelgood are there?

58 vinyl pressings of Dr. Feelgood are listed here, from 23 countries, released between 1989 and 2025.

When was Dr. Feelgood first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1989, in US, Australia, Brazil, Canada and more. One of them is Elektra 9 60829-1, released September 1, 1989.

How do I tell if my copy of Dr. Feelgood is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 9 60829-1, 60829-1, 670.8123, 96 08291) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, st-e-60829-a-dmm-1 sr2-1 and st-e-60829-b-dmm-1 sp1-7. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Dr. Feelgood 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.
