by Pat Boone · 1961

21 vinyl pressings of Moody River are listed here, from 12 countries, released between 1961 and 1972.
The earliest pressings are from 1961, in US, UK, Canada, New Zealand and more. One of them is Dot Records DLP 3384.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DLP 3384, DLP 25384, HAD.2382, SAH-D .6182) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, M50647-1 and M50648-1. 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.
