When was Feelings first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1975, in US, Australia, Canada, Colombia and more. One of them is A&M Records SP-4541.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP-4541, L-35,660, AMS 5113, LPS 88525) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, A&M SP4819-P2 and A&M SP4820-P2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
