The earliest pressings are from 1965, in US. One of them is Blue Note BST 84154.
How do I tell if my copy of Idle Moments is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BST 84154, BLP 4154) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, BNST-84154 A VAN GELDER STEREO <ear> and BNST-84154 B VAN GELDER STEREO <ear>. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
