About this record

Stamped in the dead wax, the runout 01-25521-3A-1 timtom-cbs-London L NL carries the only mastering credit on this Dutch-made CBS pressing, which was cut at CBS in Haarlem. The label reads CBS with catalogue CBS 25521, and the sleeve states Made in Holland alongside the French distribution line Distribué en France par CBS Disques.

Because the mastering credit appears only on side A, this edition is one of three near-identical variants in the same family.

What drives its value

The price guide puts this LP at 8.65 USD in Mint, 7.74 USD in Near Mint, 5.92 USD in VG+ and 4.10 USD in VG, with the lowest current listing at 0.29 USD. Supply is substantial, with 642 copies currently for sale, so the spread between grades matters more than scarcity.

Demand is steady but modest: 12273 collectors have it in their collections and 197 want it, which places it among common European CBS issues. Its value is shaped by its position among the other pressings.

The identical versions with no mastering credits in the runouts (9333823) and with credits on both sides (13129881) sit alongside this one, and the side-B-only variant (28388173) shows how the mastering line changes by side. Buyers should treat the side-A credit as the feature that separates this copy from the rest.

How to appraise this pressing

Begin by reading the dead wax on side A. This copy should show the matrix 01-25521-3A-1 timtom-cbs-London L NL, and side B should show 01-25521-3B1-1 B NL.

Confirm the catalogue number CBS 25521 on the spine and the label, which is printed CBS. Then check the rear sleeve for the printed line Made in Holland / Distribué en France par CBS Disques and the copyright line © 1983 CBS Records.

Track A3 should be printed as Wherever I Lay My Hat on the back cover. The inner sleeve should be the coloured printed version with credits and black-and-white pictures, and some copies carry a sticker on the front, so note whether one is present.

The sleeve text also notes that the duration of Come Back And Stay is printed as 4:57 but plays 4:25, which helps confirm the edition. Grade the record by the wear visible on the vinyl and jacket, comparing it with the price tiers above.
