Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Bazuka are there?

When was Bazuka first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1975, in US, UK, Argentina, Australia and more. One of them is A&M Records SP-3406.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP-3406, AMLH 63406, SP-3411, SP-3412) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, A+M SP-3411 P2 and A+M SP-3412 P3. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Bazuka 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.
