The earliest pressings are from 2016, in USA, Canada & UK, Europe. One of them is Empire ERE222, released April 15, 2016.

How do I tell if my copy of Malibu is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ERE222, SW234223) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 140027E1/E and 140027E2/E.
