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.

General notes about this release (please note: our version may differ a little. see the comments above):
Condensed from liner notes: Recorded throughout the south on a reel-to-reel tape recorder in 1980 by two young German blues enthusiasts. Their hundreds of hours of recordings were distilled and released on a series of 14 LPs between 1981 and 1983 (L+R Records and Bellaphon Records of Germany). This 3-disc set is a selection from those LPs and the first appearance of that music on compact disc.
