15 vinyl pressings of In Concert are listed here, from 12 countries, released between 1973 and 1979.
The earliest pressings are from 1973, in UK, Brazil, France, Germany and more. One of them is A&M Records AMLS 64378.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use AMLS 64378, SP 4378, 87 081 IT, SLAM 64378) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AMLS 64378 A-1△X and AMLS 64378 B-2△G. 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.
