The earliest pressings are from 1972, in Netherlands, UK, France, Germany and more. One of them is A&M Records 12 359 AT.
How do I tell if my copy of Late Again is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 12 359 AT, AMS 7033, AM 45037) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 12359-A [Walking Eye logo] and 12359 - B [Walking Eye logo]. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
