What separates the pressings

Oldest we track, 1987First released 1970; our table starts at 1987 (Receiver Records Limited, UK). A copy older than 1987 predates everything here. Treat it as the find.
Collector variants1987 UK: Reissue, White Labels; 1987 UK: Reissue, Yellow Labels; 2004 Italy: Reissue, Clear Opaque. Short runs like these often bring more than a standard early copy.
Reissues, 2002+3 pressings. Easy to find, priced as listening copies.

How to identify your copy

Three checks, in the order worth doing them.

  1. 1

    Match the catalog number. It is printed on the spine and the record label. Check it together with the country against the pressings table above: the same number can appear in more than one country.

  2. 2

    Read the runout. The code etched in the dead wax near the label names the exact pressing. Jackets get swapped over the decades; the runout does not.

  3. 3

    Grade the condition. The same pressing can be worth several times more in near mint than in VG. Grade the vinyl and the sleeve separately — our grading guide shows the standard scale.

A 1970 jacket with a later disc inside is a reissue in an original sleeve. Judge the pressing by the runout etching and the label, never by the cover.

Questions

Which pressing of Soul Rebels is worth the most?

Original 1970 pressings lead; they predate everything in our table, and that scarcity is the point. Among tracked copies, the 1987 pressings come first. Scarcer variants (the 1987 “Reissue, White Labels” and the 1987 “Reissue, Yellow Labels”) can beat an ordinary early copy. After that it is all condition: the gap between near mint and VG is usually larger than the gap between pressings.

How do I tell which pressing I have?

Match the catalog number on the spine and label against the table above, check the country, then read the etched code in the runout groove. A period jacket with a later disc inside is still a reissue.

How much is Soul Rebels worth today?

Market prices move, so a static number goes stale fast. Scan the record in the RecordScout app: it identifies your exact pressing from the label and shows a current value range for its condition.
