20 vinyl pressings of And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going are listed here, from 6 countries, released between 1994 and 1996.
The earliest pressings are from 1994, in UK, US, France, Germany and more. One of them is Ore Music Ag 4, released August 1, 1994.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use Ag 4, AG 4F, Ag 4 DJ2, Ag 4 DJ) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AG4F A1 SIMON - THE EXCHANGE DAMONT and AF4F AA1 SIMON - THE EXCHANGE DAMONT. 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.
