A piece of history: one of the most creative, inventive, subversive, funny, not to mention impeccably composed, crafted, played, arranged and produced albums of all time. This is the album that sent Charles Manson off the deep end, but don't worry. There is hardly a sinister overtone here. These 30 tracks (count 'em) are a monument to harmony and heartfelt emotion, even where such emotion is sarcasm or parody. By far my favorite Beatles album, and probably the one to outshine Sergeant Pepper. This rare double set hardly ever comes with the poster included. This is your rare chance to grab one such copy.And, oh, did we forget to mention Eric Clapton,who makes his famous cameo on "While my guitar gently weeps"? Finding a still sealed LIMITED EDITION pressing on WHITE WAX?!?! Forget it – not even a HOPE!!! This may be the last one you will ever see.
Track listing: Back In The U.S.S.R. --- Dear Prudence --- Glass Onion --- Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da --- Wild Honey Pie --- Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill, The --- While My Guitar Gently Weeps --- Happiness Is A Warm Gun --- Martha My Dear --- I'm So Tired --- Blackbird --- Piggies --- Rocky Raccoon --- Don't Pass Me By --- Why Don't We Do It In The Road --- I Will --- Julia --- Birthday --- Yer Blues --- Mother Nature's Son --- Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey --- Sexy Sadie --- Helter Skelter --- Long, Long, Long --- Revolution 1 --- Honey Pie --- Savoy Truffle --- Cry Baby Cry --- Revolution 9 --- Good Night.
For its extraordinary contribution to the modern music, superb production, craftsmanship, fine musicianship, revolutionary significance and influence it exerted on numerous generations of musicians, writers and general public, this album was voted one of top-200 albums of all time in one of the largest poll of critics, music reviewers, professionals and producers ever organized: the poll, which was conducted by Paul Gambaccini, legendary BBC Radio A&R man, surveyed more than 50 top music professionals (including Roy Carr, Jonathan Cott, Robert Christgau, Cameron Crowe, Chet Flippo, Ben Fong-Torres, Charlie Gillett, Greil Marcus, Murray the K., Lenny Kaye, Bruce Morrow (a/k/a "Cousin Brucie"), Tim Rice (of "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Evita" fame), Lisa Robinson, Robert Shelton (who wrote liner notes for Bob Dylan's first album), Ed Ward, Joel Whitburn, Pete Wingfield, etc.). For more details, see: "Critics Choice: Top-200 albums" compiled by Paul Gambaccini, Omnibus Press, Library of Congress Catalog No.7855565 (or click here for the complete album listing)
The PROMOTIONAL, RADIO STATION-, AUDITION OR DEMONSTRATION COPIES AND RELEASES (such as the one we have here) were often distributed among the radio stations before the record was released to the public, sometimes as much as four months ahead. These records are generally considered to be the "first among equals", which is to say the VERY FIRST generation and the VERY FIRST pressings of the particular title; a PROTOTYPE and the earliest known official pressing of the record.

· CONDITION:
· RECORD
(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)
(a) THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ►click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID).
(b) The album comes with the original poster still intact (we know for sure).
(c) The album comes with the original BONUS photos included
(d) The records are apparently pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings.

(e) US Mono copies of this album are NOT known to exist.
(f) Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
