The Beatles "Let It Be" Apple AR-34001, 1970 1st-pressing gatefold LP - with the rare 'arrangement credits' on Maggie Mae (the very 1st labels credit this last song on Side 1 to "P.D." (Public Domain). However, towards the end of the run it was recognized the arrangement of this song was unique to "The Beatles", so at the very end of the run the names of all 4 individual Beatles were put on the Side 1 label (see last photo) - I estimate this revised arrangement credit constitutes less than 10% of all copies. The gatefold cover is NM with almost no ringwear (note that this all-black cover is notorious for getting ringwear and edge-bumping) - this cover was obviously stored for about 50 years, and has the dust marks to prove it (see photo number 3), the record is also a solid NM on both sides, and the labels are gorgeous, final keeper (this album is getting harder and harder to find in top condition). U.S. buyer to pay $4.00 media shipping (priority available upon request). International buyers, please inquire for shipping costs. Insurance at the discretion of the buyer.
