27 vinyl pressings of You Were On My Mind are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1965 and 1979.
The earliest pressings are from 1965, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is A&M Records SP 4111, released October 1965.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP 4111, LP-111, LP 111, NPL 28067) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SP 4121 -2B 2 P C2 and SP-4122 -2B 1 P C2. 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.
