51 vinyl pressings of Live And Let Die are listed here, from 21 countries, released between 1973 and 2013.
The earliest pressings are from 1973, in UK, US, Argentina, Australia and more. One of them is United Artists Records UAS 29475.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use UAS 29475, UA-LA 100-G, UA-LA100-G, 6289) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, UAS 29475 A-1U and UAS 29475 B-1U 1 A. 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.
