For sale here is a true treasure. It doesn't get any better than the Beatles UK pressings. I had the whole Beatles US catalog, and sold all of it once I heard the UK pressings. Here's why...the UKs are pressed from the original tapes. The US pressings were made from copies of the tapes, sometimes 2nd or 3rd generation copies. One copy would come to California, for example, and they would copy that tape and send it to a pressing plant in Michigan, which would copy that tape and send it to a pressing plant in Pennsylvania. And on and on.
The UKs are the real deal! When you hear it, you just know....
If you buy one of these from the UK, shipping can cost you anywhere between $15-20. But I'm right here in America, so shipping is only $4!
Jacket grade- VG+++. Very nice laminated UK jacket. No splits or writing. Her Majesty is not listed on the back of the jacket.
Vinyl- VG++. YEX 749-2/YEX 750-1. Name written on side 1 label. Several scuffs, no skips. Her Majesty listed on side 2. Play grade...on a 1 to 10, with 10 being dead silent from start to finish, this plays at a 7. It's a thick slab of UK vinyl, so the scuffs aren't always a factor!
Additionally, this album was cleaned using my VPI record vacuum, so it's super clean.
