Abbey Road is recognised as a classic and one of the best Beatles albums. Consistently in the top 10 albums of the 1960's, this album contains some of The Beatles best compositions including Something, Come Together, here Comes The Sun alongside the best Ringo tune Octopus's Garden!
This album will reach you in pristine condition. I have a number of pressings of Abbey Road, and this is probably the second best in sound quality, courtesy of being one of the first pressed. I have First pressings from September 1969 which do not match up to the gorgeous sound of this album. Also, try to find any copy currently for sale which has the original inner sleeve! I have yet to see one.
I am a collector of 1960's and Punk records and all the albums have been regularly cleaned and played on a pioneer PL 12D and Rega turntable using both elliptical and spherical styli so that I can give you an honest evaluation of sound quality and not just a visual inspection. I value the records I sell appropriately and so can be a little higher than others, but you can buy with confidence that the record will be as described and of a quality that will grace your turntable. All records will have a plastic protective cover and will be sent in a proper record mailer.
