When was Sleazy first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1979, in US, UK, Australia, Brazil and more. One of them is Casablanca NB 2213.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use NB 2213, NB 2213 DJ, NBD 20194 DJ, 9198 478) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Sleazy 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.
