Description

UP FOR AUCTION IS AN ORIGINAL RARE 45 SIZE LABEL MONO VEE- JAY VERSION 1 RELEASE OF "INTRODUCING THE BEATLES". THIS VERSION HAS THE SINGLES "PS I LOVE YOU" , AND "LOVE ME DO". THIS WAS THE FIRST FORMAL RELEASE OF THE BEATLES ON LP FORMAT IN THE U.S. WHILE CAPITOL, A US SUBSIDIARY OF THE BEATLES EMI/PARLOPHONE BRITISH RECORDING COMPANY SAT ON THEIR HANDS AND BALKED AT RELEASING THE WILDLY POPULAR BEATLES, VEE-JAY TOOK THEM ON. CAPITOL TOOK NOTICE AS VEE-JAY COULDN'T KEEP UP WITH ORDERS. SINCE CAPITOL WAS JOINED AT THE HIP WITH THE BEATLES BRITISH RECORD COMPANY, THEY TOOK ISSUE THAT "VEE-JAY" DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHTS FOR THE ABOVE MENTIONED SONGS. VEE-JAY WAS FORCED INTO REMOVING "PS I LOVE YOU" AND "LOVE ME DO" AND CONTINUED TO RELEASE THIS LP WITH "PLEASE PLEASE ME" AND "ASK ME WHY" THESE ARE THE VERSION 2 RELEASES. THIS 45 SIZE LABEL VERSION 1 IS SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE VEE-JAY WAS HUSTLING TO FILL ORDERS AND COULDN'T SOURCE FULL ALBUM SIZE LABELS FAST ENOUGH.THEY HAD TO HAVE THEIR PRINTER USE THE 45 SIZE THAT WERE BEING USED FOR THEIR 45 SIZE SINGLES.

ENOUGH ON THE HISTORY -----CONDITION,

COVER---VG --NOTICEABLE ARE LEFT OVER TAPE STAINS ON THE BACK OF THE COVER. THEY ARE NOT THERE TO HOLD THE COVER TOGETHER AS THERE ARE NO-SEAM SPLITS AT ALL AND NO REPAIRS AT ALL !! (reference pictures) THE SPINE IS TOTALLY COMPLETE. THERE IS LIGHT WRITING ON THE TOP LEFT ON THE BACK. THE FRONT DOES NOT HAVE THE NORMAL WEAR ISSUES COMMON FOR THESE EARLY RELEASES. THERE IS WHAT APPEARS TO BE AN INSPECTION STAMP ON THE FRONT. IF IT WEREN'T FOR THESE ISSUES THIS COVER WOULD EASILY MAKE THE VG+ RATING. I CAN ONLY GIVE IT A VG RATING.

RECORD-RATING --VG-- THE PICURES SHOW SPINDLE MARKS ON THE LABELS ON BOTH SIDES. THERE IS VERY LIGHT WRITING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE LABELS IN THE YELLOW COLORED PART.THE RECORD RETAINS A MIRRORED GLOSS. THERE IS SOME BACKGROUND NOISE ONLY IN SOME PLACES BUT THE SUPERB MONO FIDELITY SOUND OF THESE VEE-JAY PRESSINGS IS CLEAR. THERE ARE NO LOUD POPS OR CLICKS TO BE HEARD.THERE AREN'T ANY NEEDLE GOUGES. I ENJOYED PLAYING THIS RECORD AND HEARD BACKGROUND ENTHUSIASTIC VOCALS I DIDN'T NOTICE BEFORE.

NO RESERVE
