Description
THE BEATLES "PLEASE PLEASE ME" 3RD Yellow / Black - STEREO PRESS
DEFINITELY A MUST HAVE PIECE WHICH WOULD BE A FINE ADDITION TO ANY SERIOUS BEATLES COLLECTION., AND IS WITHOUT DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST DESIRED OF ALL THE BEATLES VINYL.
WITH VERY FEW OF THESE RELEASED WITH THIS LABEL, IT IS USUALLY A STARTING POINT FOR ANY SERIOUS COLLECTOR.
ORIGINAL EARLY STEREO LP'S ARE ALWAYS SOUGHT AFTER (AND THEREFORE QUITE EXPENSIVE) BECAUSE SO FEW WERE PRESSED.
PCS 3042
YEX 94/95-1-1
STAMPERS: 1 GO ON SIDE ONE & 1 T ON SIDE TWO
A VERY EARLY PRESSING
NO PURCHASE TAX CODE STAMP (SAME AS MY OTHER ONES). IN FACT IT SEEMS ALL THESE FIRST YELLOW / BLACK PARLOPHONE PRESSINGS NEVER CAME WITH A TAX CODE STAMPED ON THE LABEL.
THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS VERY FEW SPINDLE MARKS TO EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND VIVID WITH PERFECT LETTERING. BOTH LABELS ARE CRISP AND EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY FADING.
THE HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO QUITE LOVELY... LOOKS LIKE IT HAS BEEN PLAYED, AS IT DOES HAVE SOME LIGHT SCRATCHES IT HAS TO BE SAID AND A FEW VERY FEINT PAPER MARKS. I HAVE TRIED TO GET A CLOSE PHOTO OF THIS BUT IT JUST ABOUT SHOWS UP ON ONE OF THE PHOTOS. THERE ARE NO AUDIO IMPERFECTIONS THOUGH. THE GLOSSY VINYL IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING ETC.
ON A RECENT PLAY THROUGH, IT SOUNDS GREAT, AS DO THE BEATLES THEMSELVES, AND EVEN THOUGH I DO MAKE A POINT OF LISTENING TO ALL OR MOST THAT I LIST, I PLAY VERY CAREFULLY ON A CORRECTLY SET UP REGA PLANAR 3 (ie,GOOD RECORD PLAYER). THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH WITHOUT MANY CLICKS OR POPS AND I WOULD CONSIDER AUDIO IS STRONG, CLEAR AND VIBRANT.
THE CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS IN AN EXCELLENT SUPERB CONDITION WITH THE "PATENTS APPLIED FOR WORDING".
WITH ONLY A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF COPIES TO HAVE BEEN PRODUCED AT THE VERY BEGINNING, THESE GOLD ALBUMS WERE USUALLY ALWAYS PLAYED TO DEATH BY 1964/65!.
FINDING ONE IN vg+ CONDITION OR HIGHER IS BECOMING MORE DIFFICULT AND THIS PARTICULAR COPY IS IN A NICE SHAPE. THIS HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER THOUGH STILL HAVING A FEW MARKS.
THE OUTER AND ORIGINAL EARLY E.J DAY SLEEVE IS A VERY RARE FIRST ISSUE YELLOW AND BLACK SLEEVE WITH THE LARGE STEREO TO THE EXTREME RIGHT AND ANGUS MCBEAN CREDIT TO THE RIGHT. ONLY IN VG+ CONDITION DUE TO THE MARKS AT THE BOTTOM AND LAMINATE CREASE TO THE LEFT CORNER. THE FLIPBACKS ARE COMPLETE THOUGH THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE LEFT HAND TOP FOLDOVER. COULD DO WITH A CLEAN ALSO. WITH JUST A BRUISE OR TWO TO THE CORNERS. VERY CLEAN OTHERWISE. PLEASE SEE PICTURES.
A BETTER SLEEVE WOULD BE NICE TO MATCH THE VINYL, BUT I HAVEN'T COME ACROSS MANY OF THESE EITHER!
NOT MANY BIG COLLECTORS HAVE THESE.
THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO AQUIRE ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE BEATLES ALBUM OF ALL TIME.
THOUGH NOT MINT,THESE ARE ALWAYS ON THE WISH LIST AND THEREFORE DEMAND FOR ANY COPY IS HIGH.
