10 vinyl pressings of Shake It Up are listed here, from 8 countries, released between 1980 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 1980, in France, US, Argentina, Brazil and more. One of them is Jonathan 2473 935.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 2473 935, PRL 12180, 12180, AVI-4860) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, JOH 168 2473935 1 380 POLYGRAM / A7 and JOH 168 2473935 2 380 POLYGRAM / A2. 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.
