The album includes eleven of the fourteen tracks from the group's first British LP Please Please Me. Tracks not included are: "I Saw Her Standing There" (included on Meet the Beatles!), "Misery", and "There's a Place". Even though Vee Jay had made four Beatles albums from these sessions (all of which had charted), when released on Capitol the album still sold and charted inside the top 50.
FACTORY SEALED EARLY BEATLES MONO CATALOG NUMBER T-2309. THIS IS ONE OF THE TOP TITLES FROM A RECENTLY PURCHASED BEATLE COLLECTION. THERE WERE ACTUALLY 2 COPIES AVAILABLE OF THIS TITLE (ONE OF THEM WITH A PUNCH HOLE). THIS ONE HAS NO BREAKS IN THE WRAP, WHICH STILL HAS THE STORE PRICE STICKER ATTACHED. PIC 3 SHOWS THE STICKER, AND ONE OF THE NOTICABLE FACTORY BREATHE-HOLES JUST BELOW TO THE LEFT. AT THE OPENING, THE REDDISH CAPITOL TEEN SET STYLE INNERSLEEVE IS VISIBLE AT THE CENTER. NO RIAA NUMBER LISTED ON REAR, HOWEVER KNOWLEDGABLE COLLECTORS OF THESE MAY KNOW BY THE INNERSLEEVE MORE ABOUT WEATHER THIS ORIGINATES FROM THE EAST OR WEST COAST. THE FRONT PASTE DOWN SLICK LOOKS NEW, SHOWING NO HINT OF ANY SHELFWARE. THE FRONT LOOKS LIKE A NEWLY BOUGHT COPY! THE REAR IS CLEAN AND WHITE, OBVIOUSLY NEVER SAT FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME IN A MUSTY ENVIORMENT, OR SMOKERS HOME, AS THE EDGES REMAIN WHITE AND UNIFORM WITH THE REST OF THE COVER. THIS COPY (AND ALL IN THIS COLLECTION) WAS ACTUALLY STORED IN IT'S OWN INDIVIDUAL BOX FOR MANY YEARS, STORED VERTICALLY, AND SEPARATED FROM RECORD SHELVES. THERE IS A CREASE AT THE TOP, WHICH CAN ONLY BE SEEN FROM THE BACKSIDE, (NOT A BEND!) STILL LAYS FLAT ON A TABLE. UPPER/ LEFT CORNER TAP IS SEEN FROM THE FRONT ONLY. I'M NITTPICKING THE COPY FOR SAKE OF ACCURACY. THIS COPY LOOKS MUCH THE WAY THEY DID, WHEN ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 1965! THE PICTURES I TOOK, DON'T DO THIS ONE JUSTICE- NOT LIKE HOLDING THIS COPY IN HAND! FINDING A SEALED MONO COPY OF THIS TITLE, IS RARE INDEED!!
