18 vinyl pressings of Shut Up (And Sleep With Me) are listed here, from 8 countries, released between 1995 and 2008.
The earliest pressings are from 1995, in UK, US, Europe, France and more. One of them is RCA SINO 1.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SINO 1, LUS 031, PROTO SEB 1, 74321 337971) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SIN 01 A1 and SIN 01 B1. 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.
