What determines the price?

Why is one record cheaper than another?

Some albums were released in multiple versions (pressings). There is the first pressing, which can be very valuable to collectors. When that stock runs out, a new pressing is made, called a repress or re-issue. These are often slightly different, such as a different sleeve or heavier vinyl.

Sometimes older albums are remastered, improving the sound quality. A new pressing is made for this as well. Differences in artwork or small production errors can also make a specific version more attractive.

What makes the difference in price?

For records that are not new, the market value is determined by scarcity and the condition of both the record and the sleeve. Pricing is based on supply and demand, and whether a version is limited or numbered.

Which variant should I choose?

If it’s mainly about the music, a repress is a good choice. An original or numbered edition has a different kind of appeal.

- This Edition has a unique matrix on back of disc and the runout shows only the catalog number.

- This edition's disc print has a different tone and no silver border as the French Edition.

- This edition is the First Edition as it contains the "early versions" of "Strange Ways", "Whispers In Blindness" & "My Déjà Vu" which were refined released to the rest of the world and for Europe released on reissue editions.

The version of "Whispers In Blindness" on this release has a tiny difference in backing vocal arrangements compared to the regular album version at the time stamp of [1:40 to [2:00:

On this version the vocals go (backing vocals in brackets):
"...they say it's only once
(Only once my dear)
In a life we love.
I can hear the soft bells ring,
Through a thousand years
They call out to me..."

while in the regular version they go:
"...they say it's only once
In a life we love.
I can hear the soft bells ring,
(Only once my dear)
Through a thousand years
They call out to me."

The version of "My Déjà Vu" running [3:20 can only be found on this version of "The Bridge" aswell as on the compilation albums "The Collection" and "All That She Wants".
