Complete item notes

Released in 1988,"Autumn Moods" (Autumn Colors) is undoubtedly one of Priscilla Chan's most iconic works. This album not only perfectly encapsulates the golden age of Hong Kong pop music in the 80s,but its early vinyl pressing,recorded entirely in analog,boasts warm and delicate sound quality and strong vocal presence. To this day,it remains a rare "audiophile" test record for many audiophiles and vinyl collectors.

With the recent vinyl revival,demand for well-preserved early Cantonese vinyl records has surged. We have many years of experience in second-hand vinyl record trading and are committed to buying 80s Cantonese vinyl at high prices,ensuring a fair price.

Priscilla Chan's "Autumn Moods" Vinyl Version Identification Guide

Different pressings released at different times have vastly different market values. Many people may not know how to distinguish valuable first-pressing vinyl records. The following table lists the characteristics and collection potential of common versions of "Autumn Moods":

Version TypeIdentification Features and DetailsCollection and Resale Potential
Hong Kong Original 1st PressingPressed in 1988 by PolyGram in Hong Kong or West Germany. The key is the matrix number in the run-out groove of the record,which usually has sharper lettering. The sleeve printing is vibrant and the texture is thick.Extremely High. The most sought-after version by audiophiles,offering authentic analog sound. This is a primary target for our top cash appraisals.
Early Reissue / Other Asian Region VersionsReleased slightly later than the first pressing,or distributed by agents in Taiwan,Singapore,Malaysia,etc. The matrix number in the run-out groove differs from the first pressing,and the back of the sleeve may have different distributor logos or regional barcodes.Medium to High. The sound quality is still excellent,making it a great alternative for collectors who cannot find a first pressing. Resale prices are stable.
Modern ReissueNewly reissued vinyl records in recent years (e.g.,180G ARS series,picture discs). The sleeve usually has a modern barcode,the record weight is significantly heavier (180 grams),and it comes with new promotional stickers.Medium. While they have listening value,due to large print runs and easy availability,second-hand buyback prices are usually calculated based on second-hand depreciation and do not have the historical premium of a first pressing.
