When was Brass Impact first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1967, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Command RS 33-910.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RS 33-910, RS 910 SD, SCOM 112, SNDL-932,237) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 33-RS-910 A-1SS XX and 33-RS-910 B-1SS XX. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Brass Impact 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.
