14 vinyl pressings of Everybody Dance (The Horn Song) are listed here, from 6 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1998, in UK, US, Spain, France and more. One of them is Positiva 12TIV-96.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 12TIV-96, 12 TIVDJS 96, 12 TIV 96, SR 12552) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 12 TIV 96 A-01-01- and 12 TIV 96 AA-01-01-. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
