A genuine 1st mono from 1964. Matrix 3N/3N - 1st cut. Note that absolute 1st press is identifiable by the wide-body chubby font employed on these labels. Labels mention 'Parlophone' and 'recording 1st pub' - indicative of 1st press. The heavy-set vinyl comes housed in an original Ernest J Day cover with the Emitex inner sleeve. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex/Vg+) In superb condition and has only seen light use. I could only make out a few light marks per side - nothing heavy or troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a mostly EXCELLENT level of playback with minor deviations in a couple of brief spots per side. Intros and inbetweens are nice and quiet and the audio comes across with excellent clarity. This is a great player and handles upbeat numbers with aplomb and the quiet numbers easily with minimal background. Given that this copy is close onto the initial masters you will be witnessing a really early copy of this famous title. And you can certainly hear the clarity in these earliest copies. It's a lovely clean player - throughout. Expect just a few crackles in one track per side [e.g. 'I Love Her']. A couple of minor ticks in 'Happy To Dance'. Highly recommended!
Cover (Vg+) These '64 covers can end up looking a bit tired by this point in time - but this one is still in decent condition. A clean looking front with a bit of laminate creasing around the edges. The rear has escaped the worst of the usual ageing process - but there's some grubbiness observable over toward the opening. There's only light edge wear. Flipbacks are all secure - just slight damage to the extreme bottom right. The spine is 100% intact. Overall the cover retains excellent rigidity. Please note original owners name in the top left corner.<<<
Inner (Vg+) Lightly aged. Bag present. No splits.
