Introducing... The Beatles
Vee Jay Records VJLP 1062 / LP 1062
Some backstory on this one, copied and pasted from a Discogs user's comment: "Ignoring the British success of the Fab Four, EMI's U.S. partner, Capitol, declined to issue the first few Beatles singles, which were instead picked up by the Chicago-based indie label Vee Jay Records. Vee Jay packaged the early singles as 'Introducing the Beatles', their first U.S. LP. During the second half of 1963 it was the only Beatles material available in America, and sold incredibly well; by 1964 a court awarded the rights to all Beatles recordings to EMI/Capitol, and the record went out of print, only to become one of the most counterfeited albums in music history."
This one is NOT a counterfeit. On that same Discogs page, it says "There are 37 variations of the genuine pressing (including both mono and stereo) known." There is also a guide to determine if it is real or fake. Using the guide, I've checked and verified. This is genuine, and mono.
If it sells north of $10 I'll clean it with my VPI.
If it sells for less and you till want the cleaning, it's an extra buck. I'll add it to your bill. Just let me know.
