Aerosmith records value
Our catalog tracks 345 Aerosmith releases across 58 albums and singles, in 26 countries. No two pressings of the same album are worth the same money, so the useful question is not “what are Aerosmith records worth” but “which pressing is this” — the guides below answer it album by album, with original catalog numbers and runout etchings. The ones RecordScout users check most: Toys In The Attic, Greatest Hits, Get Your Wings.

Where the money usually is
Pressing counts are a decent proxy for what people own: the albums at the top of the table sold in huge numbers, which means ordinary copies are common — and the premium sits in their earliest pressings, imports and limited variants, not in the title itself.
The pattern to remember: an original pressing was made once, in one plant, in one run. Every year that passes removes clean copies from circulation. Reissues can be repressed whenever demand justifies it, so age alone never makes a Aerosmith record valuable — the specific pressing and its condition do.
Questions
Are Aerosmith records worth anything?
Some are, most are not — the pressing decides it. Aerosmith records were pressed in 26 countries over decades, so the common later copies vastly outnumber the early ones. Originals (for Aerosmith (self-titled), that means 1973), promos and limited variants are where the money concentrates; condition does the rest.
Which Aerosmith albums should I look up first?
Start with the ones pressed most — they are the ones people actually own. Permanent Vacation, Aerosmith's Greatest Hits, Pump lead our catalog by pressing count, and each guide lists the original catalog numbers to check.
How do I find out what my exact copy is worth?
Identify the pressing first — catalog number on the spine, then the runout etching. The album guides below list both for the originals. Or photograph the label in the RecordScout app and it names the pressing and shows a current value range for its condition.
