Sub Pop LPs, Page 2. Some of the prices on this one are conjecture...some of the ones on the later part of this page are not my areas of expertise, so I am missing some images, and am guessing at a couple of the values. As always, if you have any missing images or information, please .
Live'r Than God was the debut LP from this UK band, originally released as a 12" EP on Situation Two in the UK and Beggars Banquet in Italy. The Sub Pop version had more tracks and came on both clear and black vinyl. In 1990, Situation Two released a Canadian version as a double 12" with extra tracks (but different ones than were on the Sub Pop edition).

According to Sub Pop, there were 57 (!) copies of this record on orange vinyl, and all others were on black. I have never seen an orange one, and do not believe it exists. The original pressing came with an insert and poster. As far as I can tell, the insert continued to be shipped with the later pressings as well. Also released on black vinyl on Glitterhouse in Germany.

This was the first Afghan Whigs album released on Sub Pop. There were two versions of the sleeve and several colors of vinyl to go along with each. The first pressing was of 1000 copies on orange vinyl. Accompanying these copies was the the first sleeve above, with the horizontal arm and orange print. These copies came with lyric sheet inserts. The orange first press is attracting more interest again, but the price has stayed pretty stable.
There were also black vinyl copies pressed with the original sleeve. Glitterhouse Records in Germany pressed it (GR0092) with this sleeve as well, also on black vinyl. The cd version was one of the earliest Sub Pop Europe releases (SP5/116).
Later pressings had the second version of the sleeve shown above, depicting a vertical arm with more shading and white lettering. This version was pressed on black, green, blue marble, and blue-green marble vinyl, and came with no inserts. All of the blue and green varieties are all fairly rare. The blue-green is less common than the green, and the blue marble is typically a really tough find. The craziest collectors (myself included) have locked up their blue and blue-green copies, so the prices have come down a bit, but the green ones have gone up in recent years. Now, all three of those versions seem to fall in the same range.
There were also a few copies out there on the 1st press black vinyl, but in 2nd press sleeves. These copies, unlike the rest of the 2nd run, did come with inserts: letter-sized Singles Club enrollment forms. The first time I saw one of these, I thought it was an anomaly, but I have since seen five or six copies that meet this description, which tells me otherwise.
2017 brought us some fabulous re-presses of Up In It. The U.S. "Loser Edition" variant was a deep blue marble (closer to the Nirvana Bleach blue marble than the previous Up In It variant). Although it is a distinct color, it is bound to cause some confusion. A black vinyl re-press was also released. There was a separate Loser Edition pressed in Europe. It had unique matrix codes and the color was different - this one was more of a solid blue.

The Winding Sheet was Lanegan's first solo effort. It was a bit of a departure from his work with Screaming Trees to this point. This one has some fun guest appearances, including Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic. Can't imagine where Nirvana got the idea to do "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?"...the original Leadbelly version notwithstanding, of the cover versions I have heard, I prefer Lanegan's. His deep voice lends itself well to that song. Anyway, the red vinyl copies of this record generally sell for a lot. The first 1,000 copies were on red vinyl. The black one isn't the cheapest either, but it's more manageable. It was also released on Glitterhouse in Germany. That version is quite easy to find.
In 2015, Sub Pop re-pressed The Winding Sheet on 180g black vinyl as part of the Mark Lanegan One Way Street box set. Then, in 2016, they released in on its own (on standard weight vinyl).

Glue...the last Fluid release on either Glitterhouse or Sub Pop. It was later combined with Roadmouth (minus two tracks from Roadmouth) for a Sub Pop CD/cassette release. Glitterhouse copies of the Glue EP were all on black vinyl. The first Sub Pop pressing was on purple vinyl, limited to 1,000 copies. Later pressings were on mint green marble and black vinyl. The prices on all of the above have dropped way down. I have been told by a reliable source (i.e. in the band) that a grey version also exists, but I have never seen one. I have always wondered if he was confusing this with the grey Roadmouth. I will only know for sure if I find a grey Glue.

Certainly one of the more memorable album covers of all time. This band has always reveled in its shock value and misogyny. Something keeps people coming back. This was probably their most collectable album. The first pressing was of 1,000 on red vinyl. That one can sell for a fair amount, but not nearly as much as the other color vinyl versions. There is a grey vinyl pressing of 112 copies. That pressing came with a copy of the She's Dead 7" on black vinyl (minus the sleeve). One would think the grey version would be the most valuable, but not so...there is also a pink marble version out there that is somehow rarer. The last time I saw it auctioned, it went for almost $600, and that was years ago. I don't know how many of the pink copies were pressed, but it can't be many. Later on, Sub Pop pressed 1,500 picture discs, using outtake pictures from the original cover photo shoot. These sell for a few bucks as well. There were then lots of black vinyl Sub Pop pressings. A German version came out on Glitterhouse, which was on black vinyl.

Solid debut EP from L7. The first pressing was on purple marble vinyl. The U.S. pressing also exists on black vinyl. The German one is black, too. Then, there are the Australian ones...there were a whole bunch of colors released there on Waterfront, all on 10" vinyl. Known colors: black, blue, green, orange, pink, red, yellow.
The pricing has been rather weird for this one. The purple vinyl dropped a ton over the years and was down in the $15-20 range for a long time. Then, it started climbing again (I am assuming this was due to the band reuniting). It is more expensive now than it ever was. The black vinyl one is up as well, but not by as much. The Australian ones are all somewhat scarce, but seem to be sitting in the $30-45 range.

There are a few different versions of this album floating around. The color vinyl versions can sell for some healthy sums. The first 1,000 copies were on blue vinyl. The green marble is rarer, and the yellow marble version is crazy rare. Really tough to find. There is also a black version and a German pressing (also on black).

The original sleeve for this record was banned. The story is that the girl shown in the picture was born again or something, and didn't want to image published. It was eventually pulled, and the CD cover art was replaced, but it is still fairly easy to find on all formats with the retracted sleeve. Available on green and black vinyl in the U.S. The price of this one has gone way up recently.
There were also German and Australian pressings of 8-Way Santa. The German ones were on both black and yellow vinyl. The Australian ones, on Waterfront, appeared on red and white vinyl.
In 2016, Sub Pop re-pressed this one as a deluxe version (with the secondary artwork). The Loser Edition was on "Pepto pink with blue splatter" vinyl. The European one was on blue and red swirl vinyl. It was also released on black vinyl. True to form, Sub Pop put out a promo version of this record, which was the black vinyl version in a plain white sleeve, with a promotional label attached.

The Reverend's first Sub Pop album is a true classic. Annoyingly, this album has the same catalogue number as the Singles Club single that came out around the same time. The initial 10" pressing was on black & white swirled vinyl (Sub Pop called it "checkered"...checkered is not a concept that works very well when pressing vinyl). It also appeared on blue-grey vinyl (more of a blue than a blue-grey, to be honest) and white vinyl. Those are both somewhat scarce, but the white is really rare. There was also a black vinyl LP version (and another in Germany). All of the above are somewhat pricy, but the German LP isn't too bad. Apparently, someone bootlegged the U.S. LP...I just learned of this recently. It has different labels (they are green). I'm still trying to confirm that this one was unofficial. I'm not completely convinced.

I think this one was a co-release with K Records...the original pressings all say Sub Pop, but it was given an early K catalog number (KLP 003) for its K re-release years later. The Sub Pop release had three vinyl variants: dark grey marble, light blue marble, and black vinyl. It was also released in Germany (on black vinyl). The light blue one is by far the rarest of the bunch. I didn't know it existed until fairly recently.
In 2000, K Records re-released Dreamy on black vinyl. This one is readily available. In 2017, K found some more copies of the vinyl in their warehouse, and released those in plain white sleeves with color copies of the front and back artwork. There were only 32 of these.
