BEATLES "IF I FELL"

VERY RARE UK DOMESTIC ISSUE

ORIGINAL 1965 UK RELEASE.

"IF I FELL" WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED FOR THE EXPORT MARKET IN OCTOBER 1964. THESE ISSUES CARRIED DP 562 CATALOGUE NUMBER, "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED" TEXT BUT "NO SOLD IN UK" TEXT. CERTAIN SPECULATIVE RECORD DEALERS "RE-IMPORTED" THE SINGLE AND SOLD IT AT A PREMIUM ABOVE THE REGULATION PRICE. TO COUNTER THE IMPORTERS IN EARLY 1965 EMI PRESSED A SMALL QUANTITY OF THE SINGLE FOR SALE IN BRITAIN. THESE PRESSINGS STILL CARRIED THE DP 562 NUMBER AND "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED" TEXT BUT THIS TIME HAD THE ADDITION OF "SOLD IN UK" TEXT.

THESE ORIGINAL UK ISSUES ARE NOW VERY RARE AND ARE SELDOM OFFERED FOR SALE.

WE ARE HOWEVER PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THIS HIGHLY SOUGHTAFTER UK ISSUE.

THE PUSH-OUT CENTRE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION,THERE ARE LIGHT BUT MINIMAL SPINDLE PRESENT TO BOTH SIDES. LABELS ARE CLEAN AND FREE FROM WRITING E.T.C AND DO STILL DISPLAY BRIGHT AND UNSPOILT TEXT.... LABELS CARRY "SOLD IN UK" TEXT.

THE GLOSSY VINYL HAS RETAINED ITS HIGH GLOSS, HOWEVER THIS COPY HAS BEEN PLAYED AND THEREFORE THE VINYL DOES DISPLAY A MIX OF LIGHT WISPY MARKS AND NEEDLE MARKS, THERE IS ONE DEFINITE NEEDLE MARK VISIBLE IN NORMAL LIGHT TO SIDE ONE BUT IT IS NOT FEELABLE. THE VINYL DOES LIE FLAT WITH NO WARPING AND HAS NOT SUFFERED FROM ANY OTHER BLEMISHES OR FAULTS.

THE AUDIO IS VERY GOOD, IT DOES HOWEVER PLAY WITH MILD CRACKLE AUDIBLE IN PLACES, THAT SAID THE AUDIO IS STILL VERY CLEAR AND THERE ARE CERTAINLY NO CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS.

HOUSED IN ITS ORIGINAL PARLOPHONE COMPANY SLEEVE

OVERALL ALTHOUGH NOT A NEAR MINT EXAMPLE OF THIS RELEASE (DO BEAR THAT IN MIND) BUT THIS IS STILL ONE OF THE RAREST OF ALL THE BETALES UK RELEASES AND THEREFORE ANY COPY IS ALSO HIGHLY SOUGHT-AFTER BY SERIOUS COLLECTORS.
