	£		45
	$		59

STEREO

I HAVE HAD THIS IN MY BEATLES COLLECTION FOR MANY YEARS, AND THE AUDIO IS BRILLIANT, APART FROM TWO TINY SLIGHTLY FEELABLE MARKS ON THE FIRST COUPLE OF GROOVES AT THE VERY START OF TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1, WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW. 

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1969 UK  IST PRESS :: YEX  749-2  ::  YEX  750-1 .

ON THE APPLE LABEL :: PCS 7088 .

FIRST PRESSING, SEPTEMBER 26, 1969. Has dark green label. First label variation have "An E.M.I. Recording" text on two lines, and a small "33 1/3" texted moved to the far left side. Publishing year printed with small copyright symbol (p). The label does not have Her Majesty credit on side 2. the label is quite dark although the actual shade of green varies greatly among copies. Matrix numbers YEX 749-2 & YEX 750-1 . ( Please see the label photo )

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH VISIBILITY ON MY OTHER LISTINGS. IF YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY MORE LISTINGS, PLEASE GO ON   www.ebay.co.uk. 

THANK YOU !!!

COVER :: ORIGINAL FULLY LAMINATED PRINTED BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE INTERNATIONAL Ltd :: TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES AND ALSO THE SPINE ARE ALL SOLID WITH JUST A BIT OF LIGHT WEAR ON THE SPINE IN THE MIDDLE ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) :: THERE IS SOME LIGHT RING WEAR TO THE FRONT AND BACK WITH SOME LAMINATE CREASE LINES IN THE CORNERS; TWO ON THE BACK AND THREE ON THE FRONT :: THERE ARE SOME OTHER SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, BUT OVERALL A NICE SOLID COVER, AND WITH NO OTHER ISSUES :: VG+ .

VINYL :: AS I MENTIONED ABOVE THERE ARE TWO TINY SLIGHTLY FEELABLE MARKS AT THE VERY START OF TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1 :: AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FINE, AND IT IS ONLY WHEN HELD UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THAT YOU CAN SEE QUITE A FEW COSMETIC, SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A COUPLE OF FAINT COSMETIC HAIRLINES. THE AUDIO REALLY IS BRILLIANT AND EVEN BETWEEN TRACKS THERE IS NO UNWANTED NOISE, AND ALL I HEARD WAS TWO SOFT POPS IN THE MIDDLE OF SIDE 2. HOWEVER THOSE MARKS AT THE START OF TRACK 1, CAUSE SIX POP/TICK SORT OF SOUND, THEN ONE TINY SKIP, AND THEN SIX BITS OF STATIC HEARD ON THE NEXT SIX REVOLUTIONS OF THE VINYL. DOES SOUND PRETTY BAD BUT IT IS AT THE VERY START AND WITHIN THE FIRST TWELVE GROOVES, SO QUICKLY FORGOTTEN, AND THE REST OF THE VINYL PLAYS AMAZING!!!! YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE FROM THIS 1ST PRESS TO LATER ONES AS THE AUDIO IS MUCH CLEARER AND DEEPER, AND MORE CRISP. SHAME ABOUT THE VERY START OF TRACK 1.....SO THE AUDIO GRADE WILL HAVE TO BE :: EX/EX- . DUE TO TRACK 1, OTHERWISE THE GRADE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN EASY EX+/NEAR MINT !!! SO IF YOU DO NOT MIND THE START YOU WILL GET YOURSELF A SUPERB PLAYING 1ST PRESS !!!

LABELS  :: NICE AND CLEAN WITH SOME FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN ONLY WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT :: EX/EX+ .

PLAIN WHITE INNER :: 'NO WRITING OR SPLITS, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NICE POLYLINED INNER TO PROTECT THE OTHER ONE :: EX- .

ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC ALBUM COVERS EVER MADE !! PLAYS AMAZING, AND THE VERY START OF TRACK 1 WILL SOON BE FORGOTTEN !!! THANKYOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME.
