10 vinyl pressings of Digan Lo Que Digan are listed here, from 6 countries, released between 1967 and 1969.
The earliest pressings are from 1967, in Spain, France, Mexico, Nicaragua and more. One of them is La Voz De Su Amo EPL 14.372.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EPL 14.372, EGF 996, EPEM 10259, 0-10.000) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 1 7TKA 2984 ◊ P and 1 7TKA 2985 ◊ 0. 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.
