The earliest pressings are from 1971, in UK, US, Germany, Greece and more. One of them is Charisma CB 153.
How do I tell if my copy of Lady Eleanor is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CB 153, CB.153, EKS-45744, 6073 306) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CB 153 A-2U and CB 153 B-2U. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
