How do I tell if my copy of Bad Ocean is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PIAPTK - 248, PIAPTK-248, AHT064) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, KCV057-PIAPTK248A Diet and KCV057-PIAPTK248B Diet.
