13 vinyl pressings of Since I Don't Have You / Don't Stop Now are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1970 and 1975.
The earliest pressings are from 1970, in US, UK, Ireland, Germany and more. One of them is ABC Records 45-11261.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 45-11261, 11261, SS 2170, ABC 4032) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ABC 15844 VIRTUE STUDIO and ABC 15849 VIRTUE STUDIOS. 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.
