10 vinyl pressings of Sahib's Jazz Party are listed here, from 6 countries, released between 1964 and 2025.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in Denmark, Netherlands. One of them is Debut Records DEB-141.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DEB-141, 688 604 ZL) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 6 AA 688 604 1L 1 670 111C and 6 AA 688 604 1L 1 670 111 C. 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.
