Travis Tritt — It's All About to Change.
First-press value.
Travis Tritt's second album came out May 28, 1991 on Warner Bros. Nashville, reached No. 2 on the country albums chart and went triple platinum, with 'Here's a Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares)' and 'Anymore'. Discogs lists retail copies only on CD and cassette. The only vinyl Discogs lists is a 1991 Columbia House record-club LP, 1P 8138, made under license from Warner.

02
How to confirm a first-press
Three things separate an original from a later reissue beyond the catalog number.
- The LP reads Warner Bros. Records 1P 8138; the 1P prefix is Columbia House's numbering, and Discogs notes 'Manufactured by Columbia House under license'
- Runouts read 1P-81381-1A and 1P-81382-1A
- Retail copies were CD (9 26589-2) and cassette (9 26589-4); Discogs lists no retail LP under the 26589 number in any country
- More Discogs users want this LP (348) than own it (331)
The matrix runout etched in the dead wax is the definitive identifier when label and catalog number both look era-correct.

If you have one
Pull the record. Check the label first against the Warner Bros. (Columbia House club edition) design. Confirm the catalog number on the label matches 1P 8138. Then check the matrix runout in the dead wax. All three lining up is the first-press confirmation.
Or scan with Crown Vinyl. The app reads the label, catalog number, and matrix runout from a single photograph, returns the exact pressing, and pulls a current value from recent real sales. Free on the App Store.

The ones that come up.
Check the label design (Warner Bros. (Columbia House club edition)), the catalog number (1P 8138), and the matrix runout etched in the dead wax. All three need to line up for a confirmed first-press. The LP reads Warner Bros. Records 1P 8138; the 1P prefix is Columbia House's numbering, and Discogs notes 'Manufactured by Columbia House under license'.

No. As of October 2026 Discogs lists only the 1991 Columbia House LP, 1P 8138, which sells for about $40–200 with a median near $85. Tritt's recent vinyl is new albums and a 2023 reissue of his early Proud of the Country, not this record.
It's All About to Change was issued in stereo only as a first-press. The 1P 8138 pressing is the reference.
