NO NASTY MAJOR DISTORTION WHICH TENDS TO PRESENT ON MOST COPIES-THERE IS A LITTLE AT SOME OF THE SOUND"PEAKS"BUT THIS IS BEING VERY STRICT AND WILL NOT BE NOTICABLE ON THE MAJORITY OF EQUIPMENT AND IS MINIMAL.

THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE BETWEEN THE TRACKS OR AT THE START AND END OF EACH SIDE UNLIKE MOST COPIES THAT TURN UP!

*********************************************************** 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME SLIGHT SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE BUT THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT AND THE SURFACE NOISE DOES NOT OVERSHADOW THE MUSIC!

NO JUMPS!/NO STICKS!/NO NASTY LOUD CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!  

Copies of this LP were being sold in huge quantities but how many were preserved like this one-??

USED BUT NOT SERIOUSLY ABUSED!!!!!!

Just to explain, in 1965,the majority of fans were using poor equipment. LPs tended to be more cared for.  

THIS ONE HAS BEEN PLAYED A FEW TIMES BUT STILL SOUNDING GREAT! 

I have kept hold of several great copies over the years but the time has come to thin down the collection!

The MONO mixes are brilliant and full of bass.

Any serious Beatles collector will require ALL THE BAND'S LPs IN BOTH MONO AND STEREO FORMAT.  

THE MONO TRACKS IN MANY CASES IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT TO THE STEREO VERSIONS WITH FASCINATING VARIATIONS-EXTRA EFFECTS AND GUITAR"LICKS"!

 Vinyl is still the best way to hear THE BEATLES and always will be!  

GREAT SOLID SOUND!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TWICE TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

There is HARDLY ANY spindle wear!!!

CLEAN LABELS. 

NO STICKER REMOVAL/NO WORN PRINT!!!

PLEASE SEE BOTH PHOTOS!   

THE COVER HAS A FEW CREASES,MAINLY AT THE CORNERS BUT NO WRITING, NASTY RIPS,SELLOTAPE REPAIRS,STAPLES,HOLE CUTS.

IT IS STILL FAR BETTER THAN MOST AROUND! 

 Look elsewhere on ebay and you will see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults. 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A VERY NICE COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "EX"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.  

THE LP AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM IT'S COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS!
