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.

General notes about this release (please note: our version may differ a little. see the comments above):

Liner notes claim: "These songs were recorded in 1967-68 when Brian was working as a session singer. Before The Sweet were to gain worldwide fame.

These recordings were taken from the only available source and they lack the dynamics of modern digital sound."

In fact the first 8 tracks (of 9!) are not by Brian Connolly, but "Brian Connell & The Roundsound" resp. "Brian Connell" solo, as confirmed by Barry Morgan, former member and writer with The Roundsound: Here
also confirmed by the release Various - Fairytales Can Come True which includes one track by "Brian Connell & The Roundsound" and a short description in the booklet's liner notes.
The tracklisting lists the actual artists!
Only track 9 features Brian Connolly (and The Sweet?).
Correct, original title of track 2 is "Something You've Got".
