You Gonna Make Me Love Somebody Else was first pressed on vinyl in 1979. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.

31 vinyl pressings of You Gonna Make Me Love Somebody Else are listed here, from 14 countries, released between 1979 and 2009.
The earliest pressings are from 1979, in US, UK, Australia, Brazil and more. One of them is Philadelphia International Records 2Z8 3682.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 2Z8 3682, ZS8 3680, S PIR 13 7361, S PIR 7361) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, p P.I.R. AA-2Z8-3682-3 F/W NS and p P.I.R. AB-2Z8-3682-4 F/W NS. 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.
