15 vinyl pressings of Spanish Album / Volume 2 are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1970 and 1976.
The earliest pressings are from 1970, in Germany, UK, Australia, El Salvador and more. One of them is A&M Records 2320 008.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 2320 008, AMLS 969, AML-33753, LPS 77610) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 00 2320 008 S1 ℗1970 C70 ◇Z A1 and 00 2320 008 S2 1 ℗1970 C70 ◇Z B. 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.
