With The Beatles !!1/G Mother Stamper!!
&
USE EMITEX - Patents Pending inner

This was the Beatles' second official release, following their hugely popular Please Please Me. This record was released on the 30th November 1963 and went to the number 1 position (knocking of their own Please Please Me lp) on the 7th of December. Staying at number 1 for 21 weeks! As a little note: they had already sold 250,000 copies before the release and so accepted a silver disc BEFORE release!

W-O-W...Incredibly early 7N/7N pressing


Vinyl:
165g!!!
HEAVYWEIGHT quality.
VG(+)
 There are only LIGHT marks to the vinyl. I have just listened to the WHOLE of the record without any skips or jumps. She has simply wonderful MONO audio.
Some ever so slight and occasional background noise in the run-ins and the quieter sections.
The guitar almost makes you jump when she kicks in at the start of side 2!
GORGEOUS flat, heavy and shiny original vinyl.
FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN
