A REALLY EXCEPTIONAL COPY - ONCE PLAYED WITH FLAWLESS SOUND - BRIGHT, CLEAN, SHARP AND FRESH WITH INCREDIBLY DETAILED STEREO SEPARATION - AND RARELY SEEN AS THIS PRESSING WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY SUPERSEDED (within weeks) BY THE ONE EMI BOX BLACK/SILVER LABEL

Side 1: IT WON'T BE LONG / ALL I'VE GOT TO DO / ALL MY LOVING / DON'T BOTHER ME / LITTLE CHILD / TILL THERE WAS YOU / PLEASE MISTER POSTMAN
Side 2: ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN / HOLD ME TIGHT / YOU REALLY GOTTA HOLD ON ME / I WANNA BE YOUR MAN / DEVIL IN HER HEART / NOT A SECOND TIME / MONEY
LABELS: MINT-
A beautifully clean, fresh and unmarked pair of labels which look practically as-new and carry just one light spindle trace per side (quite spidery on Side 2)
VINYL Visual: MINT-
Even under sunlight only the finest of wispy hairlines can be seen again, both surfaces shine like new and this copy has barely been touched
VINYL Audio: MINT
Sensational audio reproduction throughout with a clean, crisp, sharp and vibrant sound and incredibly detailed stereo separation - each instrumental and vocal part is crystal clear with an 'in-the-room' immediacy which sounds stunning and my play-check at a loud volume found nothing to fault
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Again, a beautiful example with unworn, crisp, sharp and square edges and spine - where all text is clear and bold. The front laminated surface has a deep, glossy, glass-like sheen and the back is remarkably clean. The front laminate has a slight pressing flaw in its application which results in a non-reflective line (please see close-up photo)
INNER SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Clean and fresh - no seam splits
