Vinyl pressings
by Right Said Fred · 1992
Up was first pressed on vinyl in 1992. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
15 pressings came out in 1992, the album's first year, in 14 countries. Compare the label and catalog number on your copy, then the codes etched or stamped in the runout groove (the dead wax around the label): they are the surest sign of an early pressing.

19 vinyl pressings of Up are listed here, from 15 countries, released between 1992 and 2023.
The earliest pressings are from 1992, in UK, Guatemala, Argentina, Bolivia and more. One of them is Tug Records SNOG LP 1, released March 16, 1992.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SNOG LP 1, 920306-1, TLP 81002, HL/TIL 71-28) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SNOG LP 1 A 1U 1 1 MICK LOUES WENDY and SNOG LP 1 B 1U 1 1 GIVE US A KISS.... 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.
