                   THE BEATLES

          The Big Beat of the Beatles

                             1964                                      PARLOPHONE                                         PMC 64                        Matrix no's : XPEAX 167 / 168    
                                     
The vinyl still retains excellent sheen even though under bright light there are numerous visible marks predominantly hairlines but also a few more noticeable marks and blemishes. But as with many Parlophone pressings they look worse than they are - playback is actually very strong; graded at least as EXCELLENT MINUS with very little surface noise and what there is is only noticeable in quiet parts and between tracks etc.                              

 The SILVER and BLACK PARLOPHONE record labels are graded EXCELLENT MINUS with some visible spindle wear to both sides.
The thin card FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK PICTURE sleeve printed by SWAN PRESS - EXCELLENT MINUS - remains in great shape - strong and solid overall, spine 100% etc with only some minor discolouration to the white card front and back but no splits and no writing etc.           

A great copy of this rare early classic Beatles compilation Lp released only in South Africa.


SHIPPING

All Lps are packed carefully and shipped using purpose made new corrugated card RECORD MAILERS ( not thin card, single sleeve 'envelopes' etc ) and we take care to make sure that the vinyl and inner sleeve are removed from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits during transit.
