Description

This is a very rare press of what I believe is a chinese press beatles record.
The woman I aquired these from said they came from her son, and he bought them while stationed in viet nam during the war.
The cover looks nice, it is a gatefold... sorta,
with the lyrics printed on the isdie cover. note the unusual type of sleeve it is in.
Records look great, like hardly been played, but please, don't tell me if you win this auction u actually want to play these priceless records!
Good luck ever finding them again!

Recorded at Abbey Road Studios and Trident Studios, London, England between May and October 1968.
THE BEATLES (generally known as "The White Album" because of its cover) was a sprawling two-record set, highlighting the distinct personalities in the group as they matured and moved further away from each other. With the four Beatles playing like session men on each other's songs, the making of the album was fraught with tension. John Lennon's songs included a bitter take on people who read too much into the Beatles' lyrics ("Glass Onion"), reflections on loneliness and alienation ("Yer Blues," "I'm So Tired"), and the avant garde sound collage "Revolution 9."
George Harrison's songs offered black humor ("Piggies") and tender sadness ("While My Guitar Gently Weeps," with Eric Clapton on guitar). Paul McCartney provided both light, lyric songs ("Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," "Honey Pie"), and rockers ("Back In The U.S.S.R.," the explosive "Helter Skelter"). Ringo Starr made his solo songwriting debut with the goofy country/ska lilt of "Don't Pass Me By" and sang the album closer "Good Night."

Ranked #7 in Q's 100 Greatest British Albums - ...[Out of] boundless enthusiasm and creeping paranoia - comes [their] most peculiar record....Childish, colorful, antiquated and faintly macabre...

Ranked #10 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time - ...THE WHITE ALBUM is an exhilarating sprawl - some of the Beatles' most daring and delicate work...
