The earliest pressings are from 1980, in Mexico, US, Argentina, Brazil and more. One of them is CBS DCS-928.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DCS-928, DIL-20463, 20159, 2.063) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 01-06-14452-1B and 01-06-14453-1B. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
