**  Rare original 1963 UK PARLOPHONE * STEREO FIRST PRESSING * of the second UK vinyl LP by THE BEATLES. Stereo was a rare option in 1963 in the UK, and the mono version outsold the stereo version many times over. **

** This first pressing LP has the title "You Really GOTTA Hold On Me" misprinted on both the label AND the sleeve - These were both corrected on later pressings. **

** Rare early publishing credit for the track "Money" on the record label is JOBETE MUS. NCB. - This was changed on later pressings to DOMINION. BELINDA (Ldn.) Ltd.

A Good condition disc. Several surface marks / scuffs / light scratches (see photos). Some spindle marks. Original STEREO mixes of both sides. No skips, jumps, warps, or writing on labels. KT tax code embossed at centre of Side One label.

Quite good sound quality throughout, with some minor surface noise, and a few "pops" here and there. Very listenable. Tested on a Thorens turntable.

Sleeve "printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd.", with laminated front and flipback design in Good condition generally. Minor split to top edge, and a tear  to bottom right corner (see photos). Spine has some slight wear, but text  is still mostly  legible. Some general wear and age-related discolouration marks to rear. Some general creasing.

Supplied in non-original plain white inner sleeve with polythene liner.

 

 

 

GRADING:

All records are graded using the UK ‘Record Collector’ format:

MINT (M):

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
