Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Slip are there?

32 vinyl pressings of Slip are listed here, from 2 countries, released between 1993 and 2026.

When was Slip first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1993, in US, Europe. One of them is Polydor 314 517 685-1.

How do I tell if my copy of Slip is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 314 517 685-1, 314 517 685 1, 521 146-1) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 314-517-685-1-A-HS STERLING and 314-517-685-1-B-HS STERLING. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Slip 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.
