How do I tell if my copy of Shine On is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP-4819, AMLH 64819, SP 4819, 170.022) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, A&M SP04819A-S2 C2 15 and A&M SP04819B-S4 A2 15.
