36 vinyl pressings of Do Ya Wanna Get Funky With Me? are listed here, from 21 countries, released between 1977 and 1982.
The earliest pressings are from 1977, in US, UK, Argentina, Australia and more. One of them is Drive DRIVE 104, released December 1977.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DRIVE 104, 104, DR-104, TKR 82514) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, DR-104-A (MR) △22907 (1) STERLING and DR-104-B (MR) △22907-X (1) STERLING. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
