Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Heartwork are there?

When was Heartwork first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1993, in UK. One of them is Earache MOSH 97.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MOSH 97) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MOSH 97 A1 MPO and MOSH 97 B2 MPO. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
