THIS IS ANOTHER BEATLES CLASSIC FROM MY OWN PERSONAL COLLECTION, AND VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER AND IN GREAT CONDITION, WITH AMAZING CLEAR AUDIO. I BOUGHT THIS MANY YEARS AGO, AND THERE WERE TWO SMALL MARKS SO I NEVER PLAYED IT AS I HAD A FEW MORE COPIES, AS YOU DO, WHEN YOU COLLECT VINYL . I HAVE JUST PLAYED IT NOW AND THE AUDIO REALLY IS STUNNING, AS IT HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED !!!!
AND EVEN NOTHING BETWEEN TRACKS !!!!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1963 UK PRESS :: XEX 447-6N :: XEX 448-6N .
ON THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABEL :: PMC 1206 .
'RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963' TEXT .
THE 'PARLOPHONE CO LTD' RIM TEXT .
NO 'SOLD IN THE UK SUBJECT TO RESALE' TEXT .
I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH VISIBILITY ON MY OTHER LISTINGS. IF YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY MORE LISTINGS, PLEASE GO ON www.ebay.co.uk.
THANK YOU !!!
COVER :: ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, PATENTS PENDING, WITH LARGE MONO LOGO TOP RIGHT CORNER :: HARD TO FIND A NICE COVER WITHOUT WRITING, BUT THIS ONE HAS BEEN LOOKED AFTER AND IS VERY SOLID WITH THE SPINE AND EDGES HAVING NO RUB OR WEAR. THERE IS NO LAMINATE LIFT, JUST A FEW TINY LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF EAR SHAPED LAMINATE CREASE LINES TOWARDS THE OPENING EDGE , AND SOME LIGHT RING WEAR SEEN WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT :: THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL, BUT THERE IS A SMALL TEAR ON THE FRONT SIDE ONLY JUST UP FROM BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING AND ALL FLIPBACKS ARE SECURE AND IN NICE CONDITION. THERE IS SOME AGEING AROUND THE EDGES AND THAT'S ABOUT IT, SO NOT BAD FOR A 53 YEAR OLD ORIGINAL COVER !!! SO I WOULD GRADE :: VG+ .
VINYL :: THE AUDIO IS REALLY SUPERB AND IS AN AUDIO TREAT !!!! THERE ARE NO SKIPS, STICKS OR JUMPS, AND IN FACT, NO LOUD CLICKS, POPS, TICKS OR STATIC, JUST CLEAR CRISP MONO AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH !! AN AMAZING PLAYING VINYL WHICH HAS BEEN LOVED AND LOOKED AFTER, AND NOT PLAYED VERY MUCH. NOW GOING BACK TO WHAT I SAID, WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT ALL THOSE YEARS AGO, THERE WERE THOSE TWO SMALL MARKS. I REALLY WISH I HAD PLAYED IT AT THE TIME, BUT BECAUSE I DID NOT, IT MAKES THE AUDIO SUPERB.
SO VISUALLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE ONE OR TWO FAINT SLEEVE REMOVAL COSMETIC SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES. THERE ARE ALSO TWO SLIGHTLY FEELABLE THIN SCRATCH LINES WHICH ARE SIDE BY SIDE AND START IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2 AND FINISH IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 3 ON SIDE 1.....PLEASE DO NOT BE ALARMED, AS WE ARE TALKING VERY EARLY PARLOPHONE PRESSED VINYL !!! TRACK 2 PLAYS WITH NO ISSUES. THERE ARE THREE FAINT TICKS BETWEEN THE TWO TRACKS, AND TRACK 3 JUST HAS FOUR FAINT TICKS, SO AS YOU CAN SEE THESE LINES HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE AUDIO LIKE YOU WOULD HAVE THOUGHT. I AM NOT HERE TO MISLEAD ANYONE, AS THAT WOULD BE VERY DISHONEST. THIS WILL LOSE A LOT OF BIDS AS SOME PEOPLE ARE UNSURE, BUT PLEASE BID WITH CONFIDENCE, AS THIS IS AN AMAZING PLAYING VINYL !!! I WOULD STILL GRADE THE AUDIO :: EX+ .
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN :: EX/EX+ .
EMITEX POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING OR SPLITS, 'PATENTS APPLIED FOR' AND 'MADE IN ENGLAND' . THERE IS JUST A BIT OF LIGHT AGEING :: VG+/EX- .
THIS AUDIO WILL TAKE SOME BEATING, AND WHAT YOU HAVE READ IS ALL TRUE, AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE VERY PLEASED WHEN THEY GIVE THIS VINYL A SPIN !!!!!!!! THANKYOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME.
