Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Let It Be are there?

When was Let It Be first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1970, in UK, US, Germany, Italy and more. One of them is Apple Records PXS 1, released May 8, 1970.

How do I tell if my copy of Let It Be is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PXS 1, PCS 7096, PPCS 7096, AR 34001) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, YEX 773 - 2U and YEX 774 - 2U. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
