On offer here is possibly The Beatles' rarest UK LP release (save original black & gold Please Please Me LPs), a MONO pressing YELLOW SUBMARINE bought at a time when STEREO had easily become the norm. There are only wispy, fine sleeve removal marks to the vinyl. No major marks or anything of consequence, the record playing with great clarity and power. A real treat. No writing anywhere on the labels or sleeve. The sleeve is in overall EXCELLENT condition, very clean, no major staining or creases, only mild ageing to the rear, and that is being hyper-critical. The sleeve opening, spine and edges are in great shape, with no faults to mention at all. A very solid sleeve, very clean and unspoilt. The original black Apple inner sleeve is in EXCELLENT- condition with no major wear, but with a small repair to a seam split, now restored to full strength.

There are some great tracks on Yellow Submarine, Lennon/McCartney compositions such as "All Together Now", "Hey Bulldog" and "All You Need Is Love", and two great numbers by Harrison, "Only a Northern Song", and, in my opinion, one of his greatest, "It's All Too Much", a powerful psychedelic number with a feedback intro and mesmeric, "trippy" feel to it. Side 2 prolongs this mesmeric feel with George Martin's contribution, an atmospheric, soothing arrangement in true 60s soundtrack mode. This is an oft-criticized Beatles record, but it's remarkable in its contrast to everything else they produced. I cherish my own copy, and really enjoy listening to it in its entirety. I'm sure you will too, and this copy will not disappoint. Please find below a guide to spotting an original copy, criteria that the copy on offer here complies with totally.

AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR YOUR BEATLES COLLECTION
