Artists : The Beatles
Title : Ticket to ride / Yes it is
Label : Parlophone
Year : 1965
Cat no : R 5265
Matrices : 7XCE 18254 - 3 / 7XCE 18255 - 2
VINYL - Is graded GOOD and under strong light shows moderate / Heavy surface scuffs. That said these are only superficial surface scuffs, marks with NO major scratches, certainly nothing feelable or sinister. I have tried to give and impression of how these look in the pictures.
PLAY TEST - Vinyl plays through without any jumps sticks or skips.. even click free. But with a Vinyl in this condition and previous usage, it does have some surface noise on both tracks, again this isn't overly intrusive and the Audio itself is clear. As everyone's systems are different, I can only comment on how it plays on mine, overall I'd grade the playback as VG. These pressings are robust and seem to withstand heavy usage.
LABELS - Are graded GOOD and show one or two issues, Side A isn't to bad, bit of discoloration but all print is clear, Side B has what look to be water marks maybe, and a little pen Mark across the text at the top. It has had its centre dinked at some point too. (See all pictures for details)
SLEEVE - Comes in a Parlophone company sleeve that has some creasing, but is graded VG
Over all with the nature of what this is, it is still a collectable item. Unfortunately if you are looking for a Mint copy this one isn't for you!! But it is a chance to own an original Beatles Demo as a collection filler without having to pay a four figure sum a Mint one could achieve. It plays ok considering so maybe more than just a filler, it just needs to be loved by someone else in their collection. Any questions please feel free to ask.
