TIME FOR SOME MORE OF THE FAB FOUR, WHO WERE FORMED IN LIVERPOOL ENGLAND 1960, AND I THINK YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY !!!! THIS IS THEIR 6th STUDIO ALBUM ORIGINALLY RELEASED ON 3rd DECEMBER 1965, AND YET ANOTHER RARE EPIC ALBUM FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
BEFORE YOU READ ON, AS YOU WILL PROBABLY KNOW THERE WERE LOTS OF VARIOUS PRESSINGS, AND LABEL VARIATIONS, AND WAS ALSO PRESSED ON THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABEL UNTIL LATE 1969, BEFORE GOING ONTO THE BLACK AND SILVER LABELS. I DO NOT WANT TO BORE YOU, SO I CAN TELL YOU THAT...... THIS IS AN ORIGIANAL 1966 UK 2nd PRESS AND PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH EARLY STAMPERS !!!! WHY IS THIS AN ORIGINAL 1966 UK 2nd PRESS ?? WELL FIRSTLY IN THE RUN OFFS, IT HAS XEX 579-5 / XEX 580-5, THE 1st PRESS HAD XEX 579-1 / XEX 580-1, AND ALSO ON THE LABELS....The matrix number is misaligned to the datestamp, the datestamp being positioned  down and to the right. COMES IN THE ORIGINAL, 'ERNEST J DAY' COVER .
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1966 UK 2nd PRESS ::  XEX 579-5   ::  XEX 580-5 .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH EARLY STAMPERS  ::  1 HP  ::  1  GO . 

ON THE BLACK AND YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABEL ::  PMC 7009.
WITH, 'SOLD IN THE UK SUBJECT TO RESALE' LABEL TEXT .

ALSO, 'THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' RIM TEXT .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL MONO, ERNEST J DAY FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH JUST A TINY RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND A VERY TINY RUB IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND THE OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP. NICE LAMINATE WITH NO LAMINATE LIFT, JUST SOME SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, WITH A FEW LONGER ONES DOWN THE OPENING SIDE EDGE. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING, BUT HAS A COUPLE OF X'S ON THE TRACK LIST, AND HAS SOME LIGHT AGEING AND A BIT OF DAMAGE ON THE FLIPBACK IN BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER, AND I THINK IT IS BETTER TO LOOK AT THE PHOTOS FOR A FAR BETTER VISUAL DESCRIPTION THANK YOU. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE, AND I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+ . DUE MOSTLY TO THE FLIPBACK DAMAGE !!!! VINYL  :: THE VINYL PLAYS REALLY WELL BUT THERE ARE THREE TRACKS, WITH A COUPLE OF FAINT TICKS, THAT I WILLL DESCRIBE BELOW TO GIVE YOU THE BEST POSSIBLE DESCRIPTION HOW IT PLAYS..... SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . THREE FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 7 :: FOUR FAINT TICKS AFTER THE START, THREE A BIT FURTHER ON, AND THREE AT THE VERY END . . SIDE 2 ::  TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . HAS A BIT OF FAINT STATIC BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 3 :: TTWO FAINT TICKS AFTER THE START, AND TWO MORE IN THE MIDDLE AND FOUR AT THE END . TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 6 :: HAS A FAINT TICK AT THE START, FOUR IN THE MIDDLE AND THREE AT THE END . TRACK 7 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . SO BASICALLY, TRACK 7 ON SIDE 1, AND TRACKS 3 AND 6 ON SIDE 2 WITH SOME FAINT TICKS.
VISUALLY, AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS NICE, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, JUST SOME SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, SOME SMALL AND TINY COSMETIC HAIRLINES AND A FEW VERY TINY COSMETIC MARKS, AND AS MENTIONED, HONESTLY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, JUST A VISUAL AFFECT UNDER BRIGHT LIIGHT. SO FOR THAT AUDIO GRADE, AND I AM GOING TO SPLIT THE AUDIO GRADE, SO ....
TRACK 7 ON SIDE 1, AND TRACK 3 AND TRACK 6 ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: VG/VG+ .
ALL TRACKS ON SIDE 1, NOT INCLUDING TRACK 7, AND ALL TRACKS ON SIDE 2 NOT INCLUDING TRACK 3 AND TRACK 6, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX+ .
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN, WITH JUST SOME LIGHT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX .


ORIGINAL EMITEX POLYLINED INNER :: WITH NO SPLITS, OR WRITING, JUST SOME AGEING :: VG+ .
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, AN ORIGINAL 2nd PRESS, -5 -5, PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER, AND FULLY COMPLETE.
