Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Hawaii Five-O are there?

41 vinyl pressings of Hawaii Five-O are listed here, from 19 countries, released between 1969 and 2012.

When was Hawaii Five-O first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1969, in US, Canada, Argentina, Australia and more. One of them is Liberty LST-8061, released April 1969.

How do I tell if my copy of Hawaii Five-O is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LST-8061, 5061, SLYL-933,364, FLP-35073) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, LST-8061-A-1 4-1-69 and LST-8061 2 3-28-69. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Hawaii Five-O 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.
