Description
On offer here is a very rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beatles called 'Rubber Soul' and is a 1965 MONO UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Yellow & Black Parlophone label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A 'LOUD CUT' MONO 1ST PRESSING!!!! THE MATRIXES ON THIS LP WERE CHANGED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER RELEASE (BECAUSE THE MIX WASNT QUITE CORRECT) AND FINDING A 'LOUD CUT' MONO 1ST PRESSING IS EXTREMELY RARE INDEED!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A 'LOUD CUT' 1ST PRESSING!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THIS LP (ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS ONLINE AT THE MOMENT) CAME FROM AN EX REP (AND LATER MUSIC REVIEWER) FROM THE 1960S. ALL THE RECORDS IN HIS COLLECTION WERE OBTAINED WELL BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE - AND AS A RESULT THIS LP IS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE!!!! NATURALLY AS THIS LP IS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER - IT HAS 1ST PRESS 1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS, AND VERY LOW (AND CONSISTENT) 4/RH 4/PH MOTHER & STAMPER CODES!!!! AND THIS IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT - AS LATER PRESSINGS (AS DEMAND HIT ITS FULL PEAK) HAVE WILDLY FLUCTUATING MOTHER & STAMPER CODES (LIKE 6/GDH & 1/RG FOR EXAMPLE) AS THE PRESSINGS LOST THEIR STRICT ORDER, AS EMI STRUGGLED TO MEET THE HUGE DEMAND USING ANY STAMPERS AVAILABLE (OFTEN RE-USING EARLIER STAMPERS WITH LATER ONES). ONLY ON THE VERY 'EARLIEST' PRE-RELEASE 'LOUD CUT' 1ST PRESSINGS DO YOU FIND MOTHER & STAMPER CODES IN THIS STRICT ORDER!!!! THIS CLEARLY SHOWS THAT THIS WAS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE AND WOULD HAVE BEEN PRESSED WELL BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE!!!! NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP ALSO HAS A 'FACTORY SAMPLE' STICKER (WHICH IS SO CLEARLY 100% GENIUNE) ON THE SIDE 1 LABEL!!!! AS THIS LP WAS OBTAINED BY THE REP (WELL BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE) AND NEVER SOLD IN THE SHOPS, THIS 'FACTORY SAMPLE' STICKER WOULD HAVE BEEN APPLIED BACK IN THE FACTORY FROM NEW - AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER EVER BEEN 'PICKED AT' OR TOUCHED IN ANY WAY!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE LIKE THIS - AND IT WILL SURELY BE A VERY VERY LONG TIME (IF EVER) BEFORE YOU SEE ANOTHER!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION - AND ALSO HAS AN AMAZING LABEL MISPRINT!!!! LABELS WERE USUALLY MATCHED UP IN VERY STRICT ORDER - BUT IN THIS CASE 2 DIFFERENT TYPES OF LABEL HAVE BEEN PUT ON THE SAME LP!!!! IF YOU LOOK AT MY LABEL PICTURES YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE SIDE 1 LABEL IS PRINTED IN THE VERY SMALL 'ARIAL' TYPEFACE (PREVIOUSLY USED ON THE BEATLES EARLIER LPS LIKE 'BEATLES FOR SALE' FOR EXAMPLE), WHILST THE SIDE 2 LABEL AMAZINGLY HAS THE LARGER 'ROMAN' STYLE TYPEFACE!!!! IT IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LABELS LIKE THESE!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1965 UK MONO 'LOUD CUT' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS YELLOW & BLACK PARLOPHONE LABEL, 1ST PRESS 'SOLD IN THE UK' TEXT, 1ST PRESS 'GRAMOPHONE COMPANY' EDGE TEXT, 1ST PRESS 'KT' TAX CODE, 1ST PRESS EMITEX INNER SLEEVE, 1ST PRESS 1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS, AND 1ST PRESS 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' FLIPBACK LAMINATED COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL UK MONO 'Loud Cut' 1st pressing from 1965 and is in GREAT condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The matrix numbers are XEX 579-1 & XEX 580-1. The Cat. No is PMC 1267 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Yellow & Black Parlophone label (see picture) and is a MONO 1st pressing!!!! All the tracks are Pure quality Beatles at their best!!!! Any fan of The Beatles, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!
The record labels are in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and quite a few spindle marks (though most of these look to be from 'searching for the centre hole' and NOT from a huge amount of plays)!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT 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, 3 or 4 visual (but NON sounding) scufflines, only a few light hairlines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! It plays with barely ANY clicks/pops AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle, and only some slight background sound on the run on grooves and gaps - though this is virtually lost in the music!!!! The record must grade Very Good (Minus) (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better!!!! 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 also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Emitex inner sleeve which is in AWESOME condition!!!! The 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back is in STUNNING condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO rubbing, and NO writing!!!! A STUNNING COVER BACK!!!! The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
