When was Like Someone In Love first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1967, in US, Canada, Japan. One of them is Blue Note BLP 4245, released August 1967.

How do I tell if my copy of Like Someone In Love is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BLP 4245, BST 84245) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, VAN GELDER and BN 4245-A.
