The earliest pressings are from 1969, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Columbia 4-44818.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 4-44818, 4062, BA-221630, 10331) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ZSP-138665-1C TII and ZSP-138664-1D TII. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
