How do I tell if my copy of Somewhere… is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SX 6097, SCX 6097, 33OSX 6097, FB 181) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, XAX 3229-1 R 1 and XAX 3230-2 R 1.
