BEATLES UK, Revolver, original 1966 UK mono LP. Condition is Used. Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class signed for. I am selling off my late fathers Beatles LP for my mother so please take a look at my other items. I will combine postage where possible. Any questions please ask. I have taken the information for this LP from the internet as I know nothing about LP's. If I have posted something clearly wrong please let me know.
From looking at the LP the condition of the LP would appear to be very good, no obvious marks on the playing area. It has not been played in at least 25/30 years as I don't recall Dad every playing any LP's and he didn't have an LP player since at least the mid 90's. The condition of the cover would also appear to be good, some small denting at the edges but otherwise in good condition with no marks or tears.
According to the website thebeatles-collection.com this LP is a First pressing, August 5, 1966. “Remix 11” mispressing. Side 2 matrix no.: XEX 606-1 have “Remix 11” of “Tomorrow Never Knows”. When “Revolver” was initially mixed a different master for “Tomorrow Never Knows” was sent off to be pressed. This mix is known as ‘Remix 11’. Although subtle, it is different to the standard ‘Remix 8’ which was ultimately to replace it. The story goes that each group member was given the first copies from the production line and John went to listen to it. But, it turned out that he was unhappy with the mix or that the wrong one had been used and he informed George Martin. Production was then stopped as the new masters were cut and the pressing plates were replaced. First presses have a side 2 matrix number of XEX 606-1 whereas the standard presses have XEX 606-2 and beyond. The early labels misprint the side 2 track Doctor Robert as “Dr. Robert”. These early Sans-serif labels have each song title starting on a new line with the first line purely for “Taxman” and have “Eleanor Rigby” starting on the second line down. Also something to note on these original labels is that each song title was followed by song credits and then lead vocalist. All of which you can see in the photos above.
Black label with yellow logo and silver print. “The Gramophone Co. Ltd.” printed at the start perimeter print and “Sold in U.K. subject…” text. Plain white inner sleeve. Matrix numbers: Side 1: XEX 605-2; Side 2: XEX 606-1 (see photos).
The stamper code is RD, I couldn't get a good photo of this though.
