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):

In spite of the "PR" on the labels, this was pressed by Rainbo Records, as indicated in the runout etchings

Likely released ~2001, from pressing number.

Duration of track A2 ('Island Cry') is 3:05 on label and 3:52 on rear sleeve; sleeve is correct.
Writing credits for A4 is erroneously given to Rahsaan Roland Kirk.
