	$		41

On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beach Boys called "All Summer Long" and is an ORIGINAL 1964 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press 'Rainbow' Capitol label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE BEACH BOYS RAREST LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  BACK IN 1964 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED IN THE UK - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS, AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!!  AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE, AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP EVEN RARER STILL - IS THAT IT IS 1ST PRESSED IN MEGA RARE STEREO!!!!  AND THIS IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED IN THE UK BACK IN 1964, NEARLY EVERY 1ST PRESSING WAS MADE IN COMMON MONO - WITH VIRTUALLY NONE IN MEGA RARE STEREO AT ALL!!!!  AND DEMAND FOR STEREOs WAS SO ABSOLUTELY TINY BACK IN 1964, THAT MOST SHOPS DIDNT EVEN STOCK STEREOs AS STANDARD - AND STEREO 1ST PRESSINGS WERE ONLY EVER AVAILABLE BY 'SPECIAL ORDER' ONLY!!!!  AS A RESULT, FINDING A 1ST PRESSING OF THIS INCREDIBLE LP IN MEGA RARE STEREO IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE!!!! 

HOWEVER!!!!  A VERY INTERESTING POINT ABOUT THIS EXTREMELY RARE LP, IS THAT THIS LP ACTUALLY WASNT "TRUE STEREO" AT ALL!!!!  ALTHOUGH IT WAS MARKETED & SOLD IN THE UK AS "STEREO" BACK IN THE 1960s - IT REALLY WAS A BIT MISLEADING, AS THIS LP ISNT REALLY "TRUE STEREO" AT ALL!!!!  SO ALTHOUGH THIS ULTRA RARE "STEREO" UK 1ST PRESSING IS EXTREMELY RARE INDEED - AND IS AT LEAST 10 TIMES RARER THAN THE STANDARD MONO 1ST PRESSING (WHICH IS VERY COMMON!) - IT ACTUALLY ISNT "TRUE STEREO" AT ALL - MORE LIKE SOME KIND OF 'RE-PROCESSED MONO' INSTEAD!!!!  OBVIOUSLY IT IS FAR FAR RARER THAN THE STANDARD MONO (WHICH IS, AS I SAID - VERY COMMON INDEED!) - AND OF COURSE STILL SOUNDS DIFFERENT TO THE STANDARD MONO (OBVIOUSLY!) - BUT IF YOU LISTEN CAREFULLY THERE IS ACTUALLY NEVER "TRUE SEPARATION" ON THIS "STEREO" RECORDING.  ITS A LITTLE KNOWN FACT, AND CERTAINLY DOESNT MAKE THIS LP ANY LESS RARE - BUT ONE THAT I THOUGHT OTHERS WOULD FIND VERY INTERESTING!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION AND HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1964 UK STEREO 1ST PRESSING ON 1ST PRESS 'RAINBOW' CAPITOL LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' FLIPBACK LAMINATED 'PATENTS PENDING' STEREO COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Capitol UK 1st Pressing from 1964 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is ST 2110 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Rainbow' Capitol label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer UK STEREO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairline traces, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound only the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated 'Patents Pending' STEREO Cover is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, NO yellowing (apart from a VERY small faint yellowed 'residue trace' in the EXTREME top right corner on the reverse), and NO writing (apart from an absolutely TINY and MEGA faint number '5' in the EXTREME top right corner on the reverse!) !!!!  The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better and is very VERY close to a grade above!!!!  BRILLIANT COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
