10 vinyl pressings of I'm Talking To You! are listed here, from 6 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1997, in US, UK, Belgium, France and more. One of them is SFP Records SFP 9612.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SFP 9612, 582 357 1, DIFF DJ 007, LBN 089701-12) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SFP-9612-A SFP 9611-A EUROPADISK DMM NY USA 18176 & and SFP-9612-B EUROPADISK DMM NY USA 18176 &. 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.
