About this record
Pressed at Columbia Records' Terre Haute plant for the US market in 1982, this Full Moon/Epic compilation carries catalogue QE 38308 and draws its 10 tracks from Fogelberg's output spanning 1974–1982. The runout matrix strings—AL 38308, BL 38308, and the stamped Customatrix variants o T1 PAL 38308-1D and o T1 PBL 38308-1C—confirm the original pressing rather than a later reissue.
Demand remains modest: 22 collectors want it against 2483 who own one, yet 48 copies are currently for sale, suggesting steady availability at low entry prices.
What drives its value
A Mint copy commands 32.78 USD, while NM drops to 29.33 USD and VG+ settles at 22.43 USD; the VG grade holds at 15.53 USD. The lowest asking price across 48 active listings is 2.66 USD, reflecting the glut of copies in the secondary market.
As an original 1982 pressing rather than a reissue, this edition carries modest collector premium over later variants, but the 1974–1982 retrospective nature and soft-rock genre limit appeal to core Fogelberg enthusiasts. The 4.07 rating from 57 community votes suggests solid but not exceptional regard.
Supply far outpaces the 22 want entries, keeping prices anchored to the lower end of the price guide even for VG+ and NM specimens.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number QE 38308 on the front cover and label. The dead-wax etchings on Side A read AL 38308 and on Side B read BL 38308; the stamped (not etched) Customatrix codes o T1 PAL 38308-1D and o T1 PBL 38308-1C appear in the runout and distinguish this from any later reissue.
The pressing plant credit—Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute—may appear on the label or inner sleeve. Grading hinges on vinyl surface condition: check for hairline scratches under light, listen for surface noise in quiet passages (particularly on A5, recorded at The Bennett House, Franklin, TN and Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA), and inspect the jacket for seam splits and ring wear.
The barcode is present on this edition. A NM copy should show minimal signs of play; VG+ allows light surface marks that do not affect playback.

Frequently asked
What is this pressing worth in VG+ condition?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 22.43 USD. This estimate reflects the original 1982 pressing; later reissues or different pressings may vary. The actual market price depends on seller and buyer negotiation.
How do I tell this 1982 original from a later reissue?
Check the dead-wax runout: the original carries AL 38308 on Side A and BL 38308 on Side B, with the stamped Customatrix codes o T1 PAL 38308-1D and o T1 PBL 38308-1C. Reissues will show different matrix strings. The pressing plant credit—Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute—also confirms the original.
Why are so many copies available if only 22 collectors want it?
The 2483 community members who own this album far exceed the 22 actively seeking one, and 48 copies are currently listed for sale. This surplus reflects the compilation's broad initial pressing run and modest collector demand, keeping prices low even for higher grades.
What is the price range from Mint to VG?
A Mint copy is priced at 32.78 USD, while a VG copy is valued at 15.53 USD according to the price guide. The spread reflects condition sensitivity; however, the lowest asking price across active listings is 2.66 USD, showing that real-world sales often undercut the guide.
Which tracks on this compilation are from the most recent year?
Two tracks—A5 and B2—are from 1982, the year of this album's release. A5 was recorded at The Bennett House, Franklin, TN and Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA; B2 was recorded at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA. The remaining eight tracks span 1974 through 1981.
