The earliest pressings are from 1976, in US, UK, Australia, France and more. One of them is Round Records RX-LA600-G.
How do I tell if my copy of Diga is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RX-LA600-G, RX-110, UAS 29952, RXLA 600) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 33 RX-LA-600-1 [artisan logo stamp] and 33 RX-LA-600-2 [artisan logo stamp]. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
