IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD BEATLES EXPERTS/DEALERS.  

EVERY COLLECTION SHOULD HAVE THIS LP!

No track listing needed-If you really need to know I will tell you but this is a world famous LP AND I also do not waste time and space quoting entire lyrics like some clowns!! 

TIME FOR A LITTLE ABOUT ME! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED DEALER,  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE ESPECIALLY REGARDING THE BEATLES!!! 

DUE TO A LACK OF SPACE AND THE REALISATION THAT I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO PLAY THE MAJORITY OF MY HUGE COLLECTION,I AM PRUNING DOWN SELECTED ITEMS.

AN ORIGINAL MONO EDITION FROM 1967 OF THE BAND'S WONDERFUL ALBUM ISSUED ON THE UK PRESSED PARLOPHONE YELLOW/BLACK LABEL .

MATRIXES:

XEX 637-1 + A T P at 3"0"CLOCK

XEX 638-1 + A R H at 2"0"CLOCK             

THICK PRESSING different to the LATER THINNER pressings from a few years later-This ESSENTIAL  LP pressed within the first few MONTHS of issue from 1967 when Beatlemania was at it's height and this LP was the most exciting LP of it's time.

ONE OF THE BAND'S BEST, SONGS THAT WOULD INFLUENCE MILLIONS OF OTHER MUSICIANS!

AN INCREDIBLE LP THAT STILL SOUNDS EXCITING 43 YEARS ON! 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH MOSTLY VISUAL SURFACE MARKS AND  SOME SHORT LIVED FAINT CLICKS(LIST BELOW)AND SOME SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE BUT THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT!

NO JUMPS!/NO STICKS!/NO NASTY LOUD THUDDING CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!

HERE IS THE CLICK LIST!!!!!

"FIXING A HOLE":A CLICK SOUNDS THE LAST 17 SECONDS AND IN BETWEEN THE GAP BEFORE"SHE'S LEAVING HOME".

"SHE'S LEAVING HOME":A FAINT CLICK SOUNDS THE 1ST 10 SECONDS.

"WITHIN WITHOUT YOU":APPROX 1 MINUTE INTO THE TRACK, A SEMI FAINT CLICK(ON ONE CHANNEL)SOUNDS FOR APPROX 15 SECONDS AND THEN AGAIN FOR MOST OF THE INSTRUMENTAL BREAK LASTING AROUND 55 SECONDS AND 30 SECONDS DURING THE FINAL VERSE.

"WHEN I'M 64"A CLICK SOUNDS THREE TIMES(APPROX 7 SECONDS) AT HALF WAY THROUGH THE SONG.

"A DAY IN THE LIFE"A CLICK SOUNDS TWICE JUST BEFORE THE ORCHESTRAL BUILD UP NEAR THE END OF THE TRACK.

JUST COMPARE WITH OTHER SELLERS-HOW MANY OTHERS CAN YOU FIND WHO NOT ONLY STATE CLICKS BUT ACTUALLY TIME THEM AND PIN POINT EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE?

MOST USE THE SAME FRAMEWORK WITH A GENERAL IT MUST BE VG+ OR BETTER TO COVER THEMSELVES!

MY IN DEPTH DETAIL IS DONE TO GIVE EVERY POTENTIAL BIDDER CONFIDENCE!

   Copies of this album were being sold in huge quantities but how many were preserved like this one ??!!!!!!

Just to explain, in 1967,the majority of fans that were buying the mono editions were using poor equipment-The stereo versions tended to be more cared for.  

THIS ONE HAS BEEN PLAYED A NUMBER OF TIMES BUT STILL SOUNDING AND LOOKING GREAT! 

I have kept hold of several great copies over the years but the time has come to thin down the collection!

The MONO mixes are brilliant and full of bass AND have lots to offer that are missing in the stereo version.

THE MONO was the one the band were most involved with. 

Any serious Beatles collector will require both mono and stereo editions.  

THE MONO VERSION IN MANY CASES IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT TO THE STEREO VERSIONS WITH FASCINATING VARIATIONS-EXTRA EFFECTS AND GUITAR"LICKS"!

 Vinyl is still the best way to hear THE BEATLES and always will be!  

GREAT SOLID SOUND!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TWICE TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

There is HARDLY ANY spindle wear but some label markings on the Side one label caused by the previous owner trying to find the spindle!!!

EVERY COPY I HAVE SEEN HAS HAD SOME BUT THESE LABELS ARE STILL CLEAN!!!!!!

K T TAX CODE RAISED PRINT ON THE"A"SIDE LABEL. 

NO WRITING/NO STICKER REMOVAL/NO WORN PRINT!!!

PLEASE SEE BOTH PHOTOS TO SEE THE CLEANLINESS OF THE COVER AND THE INSERTS!

THE CARDBOARD INSERT IS CLEAN WITH NO CREASES OR WRITING,MANY WERE CUT OUT BY FANS.

IT IS ACTUALLY PRINTED IN GERMANY(BUT STILL FROM 1967)REMEMBER THE LP WAS SELLING IN HUGE QUANTITIES AND AS SUCH, OFTEN OVERSEAS PARTS OF THE EMI ORGANISATION WERE INSTRUCTED TO HELP OUT THE DEMAND-THIS HAS THE SAME COLOURS AND SHADE OF CARD OF THE 1967 ERA-I KNOW A 1970s REPRINT AT IMMEDIATE GLANCE!

THE RED/WHITE INNER HAS THE PATENTS APPLIED FOR WORDING SIGNIFYING A VERY EARLY PRINT AND IS SUPER CLEAN WITH NO RIPS,CREASES OR WRITING! MOST THAT SURVIVE ARE DAMAGED AS THE PAPER USED WAS THIN!

I HAVE ADDED A SUPER CLEAN AND CRISP EMI RECORDS ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE PRINTED AROUND THE END OF 1967 AS A BONUS INCLUDING THE SGT.PEPPER LP COVER+THE FIRST LPs BY PINK FLOYD,TREX,SIMON DUPREE AND OTHER DELIGHTS.

I WILL ALSO INCLUDE A CLEAN POLYLINED INNER TO PREVENT FUTURE DAMAGE!! 

THE GLOSSY GATEFOLD COVER HAS A FEW MINOR CREASES BUT NO STAINING,NO NASTY RIPS,SELLOTAPE REPAIRS,STAPLES,HOLE CUTS ETC.

SPINE DETAILS FINE AND CAN STILL BE READ UNLIKE MOST COPIES!! 

 Look elsewhere on ebay and you will see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults. 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "VG"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.  

AN OUTER PVC COVER WILL BE SUPPLIED.

THE LP ITSELF AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM IT'S COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS!
