BACK IN 1963 AT THE VERY HEIGHT OF SALES FOR THIS LP - THE HUGE DEMAND FOR THIS LP VASTLY OUTSTRIPPED SUPPLY - AND EMI/PARLOPHONE SIMPLY COULDNT KEEP UP WITH THE PRODUCTION!!!!  AS A RESULT THEY HAD TO ASK OTHER RECORD COMPANIES TO PRESS A FEW RECORDS FOR THEM - SO THEY COULD COMPLETE THEIR MASSIVE ORDERS!!!!  DECCA WAS ONE COMPANY THEY ASKED TO HELP PRESS THE LP - AND THIS PARTICULAR LP WAS ONE OF THE ULTRA RARE MONO PRESSINGS THAT WAS PRESSED BY DECCA 'FOR EMI'!!!!  AND THIS LP IS VERY EASILY IDENTIFIED AS AN ULTRA RARE DECCA CONTRACT PRESSING BY THE DEEP 'GROOVE' NEAR THE EDGE OF THE LABELS (SEE PICTURES)!!!!  ONLY ULTRA RARE DECCA CONTRACT PRESSINGS EVER HAD THESE ULTRA RARE DEEP 'GROOVED' LABELS - AND THIS WAS OF COURSE EXACTLY THE SAME LABEL DESIGN & GROOVE SHAPE AS ANY OTHER DECCA LP FROM THIS PERIOD OF THE 1960s!!!!  AND COMPARED TO THE ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE AMOUNT OF EMI/PARLOPHONE 1ST PRESSINGS THAT WERE MADE - ULTRA RARE 'DECCA CONTRACT' PRESSINGS WERE ONLY EVER MADE IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS AND ALMOST NEVER TURN UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! 

AND FOR ONCE THIS LP HAS ITS 100% CORRECT DECCA 'HANDLING/PLAYING' INNER SLEEVE!!!!  CLEARLY AS IT WAS MADE AT DECCA, IT WAS PUT INTO DECCA INNER SLEEVES AT THE DECCA FACTORY!!!!  ALL DECCA CONTRACT PRESSINGS ALWAYS HAD DECCA INNERS FROM NEW - AND ANY WITH EMITEX INNERS HAVE BEEN WRONGLY SWOPPED!!!!  SO IT IS VERY NICE TO SEE THAT THIS LP HAS THE CORRECT INNER SLEEVE FOR ONCE!!!!

No is PMC 1206 on the ORIGINAL 'Decca Contract' Yellow & Black 'Grooved' Parlophone label (see picture) and is a MONO 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 SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear (apart from a TINY 'touched in' trace around the centre holes!), and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  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, only 2 or 3 VERY light hairlines, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, only 3 or 4 TINY pressing marks (NON sounding!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO skips, only a few VERY light clicks (though mostly NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent record indeed!!!!  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 'Handling/Playing' inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated 'Patents Pending' MONO Cover is in GREAT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear, NO splits, only a few light creases (cover is still VERY flat looking), NO rips, NO tears, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO yellowing, NO rubbing, barely ANY grubbyness AT ALL, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent cover indeed!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT OS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
