Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Hawaii are there?
18 vinyl pressings of Hawaii are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1961 and 1963.
When was Hawaii first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1961, in US, Canada, New Zealand. One of them is Canadian American SCALP 1004.
How do I tell if my copy of Hawaii is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SCALP 1004, CALP 1004) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Hawaii 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.
