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.
Including tax.

Recorded 1960-61
According to the Book "Discography of the Riverside label" by Stella Taylor the release date was 1961, she based the release dates in her book on the following: This Riverside Label discography was compiled using Schwann catalogs from 1950 to 1982, Phonolog from 1963, The Complete Library of American Phonograph Recordings (1958-1968) by Jerry Osborne, The Jazz Discography Project Website (), The American Record Label Directory and Dating Guide, 1940-1959 by Galen Gart and her record collection.
Also the "Billboard " of 10th March 1962 carried an announcement of the release on page 28. which means release could have been very late 1961.
