Paul McCartney - Ram An unusual press - pressed in France by Pathe Marconi - although it also says 'Mfd. in U.K.' on the label.  There's a couple of explanations offered for the discrepancy - some say production was briefly moved to France because of a labour dispute, or because the EMI factory was being refitted at the time.   Whatever the reason this is definitely a rarer press than the standard UK issue! 12" Vinyl LP - Front and Back Laminated Gatefold UK Made Sleeve  Format : LP Vinyl Album Vinyl Grade : EXCELLENT Sleeve Grade : EXCELLENT Label : AppleCatalogue No : PAS 10003 Year : 1971

Grading

For LPs and singles I use the Rare Record Guide grading system detailed below:

MINT The LP or single is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition.

EXCELLENT The LP or single 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 The LP or single has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and an occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover and contents without any major defects.

GOOD 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 edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
