Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Lonely Woman are there?

When was Lonely Woman first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1962, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Atlantic SD 1381, released February 2, 1962.
How do I tell if my copy of Lonely Woman is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SD 1381, 1381, HA-K 8016, SH-K 8016) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ST-A-62385-A and ST-A-62386-A. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Lonely Woman 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.
