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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PWLT 81, PWL 81, PWLP 81, X 14991) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PWLT-81-A1 * TRANSFERMATION MAX. and PWLT-81-B1 * MAX..
