THE BEATLES - PLEASE PLEASE ME
The Beatles: 'PLEASE PLEASE ME' 4th pressing PARLOPHONE **MONO** LP - PMC 1202
The Album comes in its original Emitex Inner sleeve (MINT- cond) and is housed in its original front-laminated 'Flipback' Garrod & Lofthouse Sleeve, with the large 'mono' wording printed on the top right hand corner of the front of the sleeve. It's very rare to find an original 1963 pressing with a G&L sleeve, with E.J. Day supplying most sleeves for Parlophone records at this time, and this is quite a superb example of this rarer sleeve, grading EXCELLENT+. No damage to note at all. No writing to the rear, no staining, tears, splits or creases. A real treat. Both sides of the record labels are beautifully clean and must grade EXCELLENT. The scans below show this. Both sides of the Vinyl Disc are graded EXCELLENT+, showing mega-light surface wear only, and playing superbly.

Of the fourteen tracks on "Please Please Me," eight were written by The Beatles, that is, Lennon and McCartney. One of the amazing facts about this album, especially by today's recording standards, is that ten of the fourteen tracks were recorded and completed in one day, on February 11, 1963 in a 15-hour session. This was more of a standard operational fact in the record business during this time, as the companies wanted to ensure the LP reached the teenage market as soon as possible, hopefully before the group died out. They didn't know it then, but this was certainly the last thing to worry about with The Beatles. But still, this album was a risk, because at the time of it's release, The Beatles had not yet had a number one hit. We can all credit George Martin for having the insight to believe in The Beatles. It is true however, that George Martin at this moment in time, believed that rock 'n' roll was a thing of the past, and would not last much longer. This is one of the reasons The Beatles included six songs written and previously recorded by others on this album.
