21 vinyl pressings of Feel The Darkness are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1990 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 1990, in UK, France. One of them is Vinyl Solution SOL 25, released September 24, 1990.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SOL 25, JH 120) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SOL25A1 PR-R and SOL25B1 PR-R. 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.
