28 vinyl pressings of On A Night Like This / You Angel You are listed here, from 17 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1974, in US, Netherlands, Portugal, Canada and more. One of them is Asylum Records AS-11033, released February 1974.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use AS-11033, AS 13005, N-S-07-2, AS 11033) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, T ASS-11033 A-5 CTH 1 -1 KENDUN and T ASS-11033 B-5 CTH 1 -1 KENDUN. 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.
