The Beatles vinyl lp Rubber Soul Parlophone PMC1267 mono

Matrix XEX579-4 / XEX580-4. KT on Side 2 label.

This is the Second pressing (1965) 
Ostensibly, this is really the first pressing, after the incorrect "loud" cut versions had been discovered and withdrawn.
The standard yellow block writing Parlophone label.
The "All rights of the manufacturer" message around the edge of the label now starts with "The Gramophone Co. Ltd."
The label DOES have "Sold in the U.K..." statement.

Vinyl is Side 1 Excellent / Side 2 Excellent+. There are a few very light surface marks. You can listen to the unedited recording of Side 1 of the vinyl. I have listened to this in full to grade it. Side 1 has a few light pops and is graded Excellent. Side 2 has no notable imperfections and is graded Excellent+. 

Flipback sleeve is Very Good+ (A few small creases around edges and it would be graded higher but for small tear at bottom of opening - see photos. Rear of sleeve is quite clean). Inner sleeve is a white paper inner. This is a G&L sleeve. '12 LL Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Patents pending PMC1267 PCS3075' on bottom flipback.

Summary:- An excellent listen graded cautiously..................not the earliest pressing but the 'loud cut' was withdrawn for a reason..................very reasonable starting price with no reserve.

This has been cleaned on a Okki Nokki RCM FREE for the buyer. 


Grading system used:-


Mint (M) The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.


Near Mint (NM) The record looks brand new with no scuffing or any deterioration in sound quality and only the smallest hint that its ever been played. The cover and any additional extras are clean, crisp and with no wear whatsoever.


Excellent (EX) The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.


Very Good (VG) The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.


Good (G) The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.


Fair (F) The record is still just about playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or
defaced.


Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
