About this record
Teldec-Press GmbH manufactured this 1987 Austrian compilation under the Dino Music imprint, pressing it from the DMM lacquer master marked 76.42612 — a detail visible in the dead wax that confirms the West German pressing facility rather than a later reissue. The catalogue number 1471 and the stereo master runout DMM C-76 612- 01- 1 BN 0 (side one) and DMM C-76 612- 01- 2 BN (side two) are the fingerprints of this specific pressing.
What drives its value
Condition drives nearly all value here. A Mint copy fetches 13.52 USD, while a Near Mint drops to 12.10 USD — a narrow margin that widens sharply as wear accumulates: VG+ sits at 9.25 USD, VG at 6.41 USD, and G+ at 3.56 USD.
The lowest asking price across 55 active listings is 1.02 USD, signaling a soft market for worn copies. Community demand is minimal: only 1 collector wants it against 174 who own one, reflecting the compilation's modest collectibility.
As an original Austrian pressing from Teldec-Press, it holds slightly more appeal than later reissues, but the Funk/Soul and Pop styles and 14-track format do not command premium interest. Grading accuracy is essential; even one grade shift costs 2.84 USD or more.
How to appraise this pressing
Verify the pressing plant by examining the dead-wax runout: Teldec-Press GmbH pressings bear the code DMM C-76 612- 01- 1 BN 0 on side one and DMM C-76 612- 01- 2 BN on side two, printed radially near the spindle hole. The label should read Dino Music with catalogue number 1471.
This 1987 Austrian pressing has no barcode. The LP is stereo and contains 14 tracks across two sides.
Grading requires close inspection: play-test both sides at low volume to detect surface noise and tracking issues; examine the vinyl under raking light for hairline scratches and scuffs that separate VG+ from VG. Check the sleeve for seam splits, foxing, and writing.
A Mint copy shows no signs of play; Near Mint may exhibit minimal surface marks under magnification only.

Frequently asked
How do I confirm this is a Teldec-Press pressing and not a later reissue?
Inspect the dead-wax runout groove with a magnifying glass under bright light. The original Teldec-Press GmbH pressing carries the matrix code DMM C-76 612- 01- 1 BN 0 on side one and DMM C-76 612- 01- 2 BN on side two. The DMM prefix indicates a direct-metal-mastered lacquer; the plant code and serial numbers are unique to Teldec's 1987 production run. Later reissues will show different runout strings or plant identifiers.
What is a VG+ copy worth, and how reliable is that estimate?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is estimated at 9.25 USD. This figure reflects recent sales and asking prices but is a snapshot estimate, not a guarantee. Market conditions and individual buyer demand can shift the actual selling price. The lowest current asking price across all 55 listings is 1.02 USD, so real-world prices vary widely depending on condition and urgency.
Why is there such a large price gap between Mint (13.52 USD) and VG (6.41 USD)?
This compilation has minimal collector demand — only 1 person wants it against 174 who already own one — so buyers are price-sensitive and condition-conscious. Wear reduces playability and aesthetic appeal on a record with modest cultural value. A Mint copy commands 13.52 USD because it is rare and unplayed; a VG copy at 6.41 USD reflects audible surface noise and visible wear that many buyers will reject at higher prices.
Is this Austrian pressing more valuable than other editions?
As an original 1987 Teldec-Press GmbH pressing from Austria, it holds modest appeal over later reissues, but the market does not strongly differentiate. The community data shows 174 collectors own it, suggesting multiple pressings exist in circulation. The low want count (1) indicates the pressing is not sought after as a rare variant. Value depends almost entirely on condition, not pressing origin.
What does the DMM code in the runout tell me about the master?
DMM stands for direct-metal-mastering, a high-fidelity lacquer-cutting process that Teldec-Press used in the 1980s. The code 76.42612 and the serial runout DMM C-76 612- 01- 1 BN 0 identify the specific metal master and pressing session. This technical detail does not affect sound quality audibly on a worn copy, but it confirms the pressing's authenticity and manufacturing facility.
