Piece Of Mind

I've got seven pressings of this record, from five countries. Every one's been read off the copy itself: four pinned down, one likely, one I still can't settle and one still sealed, read from the printed outside, where the release itself narrows to one candidate.

Median of completed Discogs sales, read 2026-10-04. Five priced against the release it was pinned to; one still up in the air, shown as the span across their candidates; one never sold, counted at the lowest asking price. One of the figures is a single recorded sale rather than a median, because that release has sold once.

The collection

Each tile shows the part of that copy where these pressings actually differ — the label on a record, the shell or the packaging on a cassette or CD — because the sleeve artwork is the same on nearly all of them. Every one links to its own page with the full photographs and evidence.

How rare is any of this?

Every other number on this page describes a record I own. These describe the world around it: for each version Discogs lists, how many collectors say they own one and how many are still after it. Real counts, not guesses — but not a pressing run either, and no proof that a record is rare. They count only collectors who log their records online, and those aren't spread evenly across the world. Read it as demand against supply, and trust Want per owner over the raw number of owners.

One of the seven copies here has no counts to measure it against, so it is left out.

What the grades mean

One candidate left standing isn't proof. Discogs lists what collectors have catalogued, and nobody's catalogued every pressing ever made, so I can't rule out one that was never listed.

Confirmed
Country and catalogue number match, and so does at least one mark that belongs to this release alone: a barcode, a printer code, a legal-deposit number, a label matrix.
Likely
One candidate matches on country and catalogue number, and nothing else in the photographs was legible enough to check it a second way.
Still up in the air
Two or more editions still fit. Each page names the ones left standing, and the one photograph that would settle it.
