Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.

TOP COPY! CLEAN ALL OVER ... A CLEAN and RARE original 1971 first pressing of THE BEATLES = "LAST LIVE SHOW" - exclusive different versions from the studio recordings ~ memorable melodies you know and love, recorded in 1966...virtually ending the touring years as the FAB FOUR, the phenomenon known as BEATLEMANIA... First issue on the highly collectible TMOQ label.
This legendary album features a thick green textured cover with the Pig/TMOQ custom sticker and block print. The record is pressed on bright LIME GREEN VINYL;
The release was by the legendary Trademark of Quality label of Southern California, known for its high production standards, perfectionism, and commitment to quality. TMOQ used only virgin vinyl for its product line...
TRADE MARK OF QUALITY was a label of quality which evolved from numerous nondescript labels. One of it's creators said that once TMOQ was thought of - there was no other label.
For decades there has been and remains to be considerable confusion over what has to be the most famous of underground recording labels, being the TRade Mark Of Quality, or, T.M.O.Q. The primary problem is not just the evolution of a label but also the split of the cofounders, with both parties releasing their own releases using the same pressing plants and printers.
Ringo Starr: "There was a big talk at Candlestick Park that this had got to end. At that San Francisco gig it seemed that this could possibly be the last time, but I never felt 100% certain till we got back to London. John wanted to give up more than the others. He said that he'd had enough. The Beatles took to the stage at 9.27pm, and performed 11 songs."
The group knew it was to be their final concert. Recognising its significance, John Lennon and Paul McCartney took a camera onto the stage, with which they took pictures of the crowd, the rest of the group, and themselves at arm's length.
As The Beatles made their way to Candlestick Park, Paul McCartney asked their press officer Tony Barrow to make a recording of the concert on audio cassette, using a hand-held recorder. The cassette lasted 30 minutes on each side. Barrow gave the original tape of the Candlestick Park concert to McCartney. He also made a single copy, which was kept in a locked drawer in Barrow's office desk. The recording has since become widely circulated on bootlegs, although quite how is not known.
Tony Barrow: "At San Francisco airport, as our plane prepared to take off, Paul's head came over the top of my seat from the row behind: 'Did you get anything on tape?' I passed the cassette recorder back to him: 'I got the lot, except that the tape ran out in the middle of Long Tall Sally.' He asked if I had left the machine running between numbers to get all the announcements and the boys' ad lib remarks. I said: 'It's all there from the guitar feedback before the first number.' Paul was clearly chuffed to have such a unique souvenir of what would prove to be an historic evening - the farewell stage show from the Fab Four. Back in London I kept the concert cassette under lock and key in a drawer of my office desk, making a single copy for my personal collection and passing the original to Paul for him to keep. Years later my Candlestick Park recording re-appeared in public as a bootleg album. The bootleg version must have come either from Paul's copy or mine, but we never did identify the music thief!"
