14 vinyl pressings of Hang On Sloopy / Skidrow Joe are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1976 and 1978.
The earliest pressings are from 1976, in UK, France, Germany, Ireland and more. One of them is Satril SAT 114.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SAT 114, 45. SA. 140154, 17 455 AT, SHA 101) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SAT 114 A-1△G. 1 J and SAT 114 B-1△G. 1 K. 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.
