All of what has been said above is true.
There's no way of knowing and most are mixed.
My point would be, to hear the record *as produced* one needs to know if the playback system inverts or not.

Follow Ups:
Back in the 1990's I had a client at the recording studio who was obsessed with absolute polarity.
John had a little "clicker" that he would click at the mic and a box that he would place close to the monitor speakers and "prove" that everything was in polarity.
I just looked him up. He did release the songs we worked on when he got back to Sweden in 1999.
I looked up the album and knew for sure that I had the right guy (even before finding his picture on the cover of the album) when I saw the title of the last track.

Bingo!
On the subject of recorded music, I have one CD of an older British group (Yardbirds, I think) where the left channel is inverted from the right. Played normally on stereo speakers, there's virtually no bass at all. Invert one speaker, and Voila!
