21 vinyl pressings of Twist And Shout are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1988 and 1992.
The earliest pressings are from 1988, in Netherlands, UK, US, Australia and more. One of them is High Fashion Music 110072.7.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 110072.7, 110072.6, FFR 16, FFRB 16) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 11.0072.7.A HC3S71698 and 110072.7.B HC3S71698. 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.
