ORIGINAL MONO MIX 1964 GERMAN  PRESSING POLYDOR LABEL OF THE BEATLES LP:"THE BEATLES FIRST" NOT ISSUED IN THE UK AS AN LP UNTIL 1967!

A STRICTLY GRADED EXCELLENT++++ CONDITION LP WITH A FEW FAINT MINOR/VISUAL SURFACE MARKS THAT DON'T SOUND AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND PLAYS SUPERB!

GENUINE MONO MIXES UNLIKE SOME LABELLED"M"FOR MONO PRESSINGS THAT ACTUALLY PLAY STEREO MIXES AS WAS THE CASE WITH THE BRITISH EDITIONS! 

THIS LP WAS IMPORTED INTO THE UK AT THE TIME BUT MOST FANS DIDN'T BOTHER WITH IT AS THE TRACKS WERE NOT AS POPULAR AS THE PARLOPHONE ONES AND OF COURSE THE BEST TRACKS"MY BONNIE"AND"AIN'T SHE SWEET"WERE AVAILABLE AS MUCH CHEAPER SINGLES.

 MOST SERIOUS BEATLES COLLECTORS REQUIRE ALL THE ISSUES AND VARIATIONS,ESPECIALLY IN VERY PRESENTABLE CONDITION AS OFFERED HERE!!!!

THE MONO MIXES FAR DIFFERENT TO THE STEREO. POLYDOR HI-FI 46 432.

*********************************************************** 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN EXCELLENT++++ CONDITION WITH SOME SLIGHT SURFACE MARKS BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT AND THE SURFACE NOISE DOES NOT OVERSHADOW THE MUSIC!

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

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

USED BUT NOT SERIOUSLY ABUSED!!!!!!

Just to explain, in 1965,the majority of fans were using poor equipment. LPs tended to be more cared for.

MOST FANS WERE PLAYING BEATLES ALBUMS HUNDREDS OF TIMES!!

SO OFTEN COPIES WERE RUINED ON ANCIENT,HEAVY EQUIPMENT!!!

THIS ONE HAS BEEN PLAYED A FEW TIMES BUT STILL SOUNDING GREAT! 

The SOLID MONO mixes are brilliant and full of bass.

Any serious Beatles collector will require ALL THE BAND'S LPs IN BOTH MONO AND STEREO FORMAT.  

THE MONO TRACKS 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 NO spindle wear!!! CLEAN LABELS. 

NO STICKER REMOVAL/NO WORN PRINT!!!

PLEASE SEE BOTH OF THE PHOTOS!   

THE COVER HAS A FEW CREASES AND A LITTLE MILD STAINING AT THE BACK EDGES BUT NO WRITING,NO NASTY RIPS,SELLOTAPE REPAIRS,STAPLES etc 

IT IS STILL FAR BETTER THAN MOST AROUND! 

 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 VERY NICE 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 EXCELLENT+++++ CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "NEAR MINT "GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.  

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

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS!
