THE BEATLES "THE BEATLES" ('WHITE ALBUM')
UK APPLE RECORDS PCS 7067/ 7068 - STEREO
Matrices end: -1 / -1 & - 1 / -1
**********************************************************
A 1968 first UK pressing from the brilliant Beatles, who were prolific in the recording studio - and due to their retirement from touring and playing live, they concentrated on recording.
This album is often rated as their finest period, happening after the dust had settled from Brian Epstein's passing. The 4 lads working more independently of each other.
Now they focused on composing these tracks without the influence or judgements of each other - which was a particular plus for George, with his exceptional contributions!
In the studio with George Martin they were the top band.
This FIRST UK pressing STEREO DOUBLE LP SET is special and an essential album of all The BEATLES releases.
At this point in the sixties the Stereo mix was given better consideration too, so the separation and mix is luxurious.
This particular copy is especially rare, having both discs OMIT the EMI credit on the lables, and a WIDE SPINE cover - the first copy I have seen like this.
CONDITION;
The VINYL grades EXCELLENT visually, EXCELLENT to NEAR MINT sound playback.
GREAT sheen and 'deep groove', and sound is clear.
A WONDERFUL copy of an outstanding lp!
Labels are EXCELLENT with no stains, stickers or pen.
NO LABLES HAVE "An E.M.I. Recording"
Occasionally one disc may not, and it's extremely unusual with Stereo issues for both discs to not have it. (EMI were still the distributor for Apple Records releases).
The solid FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD 'TOPLOADER' COVER is EXCELLENT.
This has a VERY WIDE SPINE !
*N⁰. 0528623* so an unusually high number.
Gloss shine, flat and clean, there's some aging but quite even, and certainly well preserved.
A solid, and very respectable example!
CUSTOM BLACK INNER SLEEVES enclosed, plus POSTER and the FOUR COLOUR PICTURES in great shape.
The discs will be sent in new white protective sleeves, separated from the black covers.
See pictures.
