Believe it or not, Let it Be was not the last Beatles album. Although not credited to "The Beatles", Ringo’s self-titled 1973 album was the next-to-the-last album on which ALL FOUR BEATLES APPEAR, whether  individually or in some combinations. This is by far the single greatest Ringo Starr recording and the only one that can really measure up to the other classic solo works by John, Paul and George and/or all four. And you are not going to believe the list of other Rock stars that play on this album. The list reads like Noah"s Ark of Rock"n"Roll. I mean, practically the only Rock star missing is Elvis, and he’d probably just left the building when this was recorded.

Steve Cropper  (of Booker T. & The MG’s) -  Guitar, Guitar (Electric)

·                               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)          WE GRADE THE VINYL  AS  NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs -  are (barely) visible, but are probably inaudible,  and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)          The album comes with its original booklet.

(c)             The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

THE COVER IS NICE --- ABOUT EXCELLENT OR VERY GOOD+++.

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover has JUST A HINT of ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 1.

-         Visible shelf wear noted on the bottom and top seams.

-         Cover has two corners slightly worn / dinged  / bent.

-         The gatefold cover has partially split seams on 1 out of 4 "legs" of the cover (about 1.5 inch / 1 inch = 2.5 centimeters).
