About this record

Pressed at Pathé Marconi EMI in 1974, this French gift edition carries the matrix runouts C 164 - 15.561 and C 164 - 15.562 across its four sides—a hallmark of the gatefold format. The spread from Mint to Good is steep: collectors value it at 12.84 USD in top condition but only 2.03 USD in playable state, a reflection of how heavily condition drives price on this easy-listening compilation.

What drives its value

The price guide establishes a Mint copy at 12.84 USD, dropping to 11.49 USD in Near Mint and 8.79 USD in Very Good Plus. At Very Good grade, the value falls to 6.08 USD—a significant cliff that underscores the sensitivity of this pressing to wear.

The market snapshot shows 29 copies for sale, with a lowest asking price of 1.6 USD, indicating that heavily played or damaged stock circulates at near-remainder prices. Community ownership stands at 178 have against 6 want, a ratio that suggests modest collector interest relative to supply.

This is a reissue gift pressing on the French Pathé label, not an original first release, which limits its appeal to specialists in Pourcel's orchestral catalog or 1970s easy-listening vinyl.

How to appraise this pressing

Confirm this pressing by the Pathé catalogue number 2C 164-15561/2 and the label imprint "Pathé" on both sides. The dead-wax matrix runouts—C 164 - 15.561 A and B on the first record, C 164 - 15.562 A and B on the second—are the definitive identifier; cross-check these against the runout grooves under strong light.

The pressing plant credit reads Pathé Marconi EMI. The gatefold cover is three-part, with "Franck Pourcel All Over The World" and a text by Claude-Michel Schönberg on one face, and the gift inscription "Disque Cadeau Offert Par Franck Pourcel" on another.

The album contains 23 tracks across two sides. Grade by examining both records for hairline scratches in the playing surface, warp, and label condition; even light surface marks will drop a Mint copy into Near Mint territory.

Frequently asked

What is this record worth in Very Good Plus condition?

According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 8.79 USD. This represents the sweet spot for collectors seeking affordable playable copies; the jump from VG+ (8.79 USD) to NM (11.49 USD) reflects the cost of finding a nearly flawless example of this 1974 pressing.

How much does condition matter on this Pourcel pressing?

Dramatically. A Mint copy commands 12.84 USD, but a Good copy drops to 2.03 USD—a ratio that shows this gift edition is sensitive to every mark. The 29 copies currently for sale include heavily discounted stock at 1.6 USD, indicating that worn copies struggle to hold value.

Is this an original pressing or a reissue?

This is a 1974 gift edition ("Disque Cadeau") on the French Pathé label, pressed at Pathé Marconi EMI. It is not the original first release of Pourcel's work, but rather a promotional or premium gift pressing, which explains its modest collector demand (6 want against 178 have).

How do I verify the correct pressing plant?

Check the dead-wax runout: the matrix reads C 164 - 15.561 A, B and C 164 - 15.562 A, B. Cross-reference these against the Pathé Marconi EMI plant credit, typically printed in the runout groove or on the label. The gatefold format with three parts and the gift inscription confirm this specific issue.

Why is there such a wide price range from Mint to Poor?

Easy-listening and orchestral compilations from the 1970s were mass-produced and heavily played; most copies in circulation show wear. The price guide reflects this: from 12.84 USD (Mint, rare) to 0.68 USD (Poor, common). The 29 copies for sale suggest steady availability, so buyers can afford to wait for higher grades rather than settle for damaged stock.
