Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Festival are there?

100 vinyl pressings of Festival are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1975 and 1986.

When was Festival first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1975, in Netherlands, UK, France, Italy and more. One of them is CNR 539.001.

How do I tell if my copy of Festival is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 539.001, 539.002, 9299 514, 2383 341) 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 Festival 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.
