Although this copy is nothing outstanding to look at, it has clearly been played on good equipment and delivers a vocal and music quality equal to some of the better examples around
*
The Vinyl
Audio: Surprisingly clear and rich sound - very mild crackle/pop in places (nothing irritating) mainly drowned out by the music - no peak ware - no skips or stalls
Disc: Both surfaces display slight dulling - light surface lines and a few scuffs (nothing deep) - disc sits completely flat on the turntable
Labels: Great condition - no writing or sticker residue - all text is vibrant and unmarked - PT tax code embossed
*
The Sleeve
Correct, original stripey design - excellent condition - no writing or sticker damage - top example
*
All in all, a very nice original 'Red label' addition to any Beatles collection
*
