Abbey Road
MISALIGNED APPLE
No 'Majesty'

(Cleaned & Played through)
*WITH CORRECT, ORIGINAL BLACK INNER TOO*
Fantastic 1969 Beatles UK LP. This was the Beatles' 12th LP, released on the 26th September. It was also the last official Beatles release that was recorded by them. Staying at number one for almost 18 consecutive weeks, it was only knocked off by The Rolling Stones' "Let It Bleed."

Lovely vinyl, but there are many light marks to her....When playing her all the way through, I noticed a wonderfully clear and rich audio reproduction...She plays through superbly well.
I noticed the occasional bit of light background crackle as well as a skip on track 2, side 2: ‘Because’...Looking at the vinyl I can see the offending scratch-MAYBE this would be played over with a heavier stylus than mine? Remains a quality HEAVYWEIGHT slab of vinyl from the 60's!!
JUST HAD THE UTTER JOY OF LISTENING TO HER
FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN
Clear, rich & deep audio, with high peaks and low bass for the majority of playback.
Labels:
EX.
There are only light spindle marks-evident when angling towards the light and looking for them!
With ZERO central hole wear to the either side.
NO "Sold in the UK..." text.
Outer text begins: "Apple Records all rights.."
"Mfd. in U.K." text. The labels are nice and vibrant.
This is the 1st pressing DARKER version of this Apple label.
The last song credit DOES NOT HAVE "Her Majesty" on the Side 2 label.
Very displayable.
Cover:
VG-.
The cover of this LP is ALSO WONDERFULLY CLEAN & STRONG!
The alignment of the Apple Logo on the back is NOT inline with the text. The spine is lovely and strong, WITHOUT any flaws.
To the top seam are small puncture holes-it looks like a dog may have got hold of the top of this sleeve at some time..I have included detailed images of this for you to see.
NO SPLITS
Please see the detailed images for yourselves and click on them for even larger images and more detail.
YOU COULD STILL FRAME THIS BEAUTY
Inner:
VG.
It is the ORIGINAL BLACK INNER! So rare to find!
This inner, in itself is pretty rare as it comes from the Apple family!!
Unfortunately there is some wear to her, with the one window having some small tears, the opening having feathering and the bottom seam having a 10cm split...I think she has survived incredibly well!
THIS IS A LOVELY COLLECTABLE PIECE, STILL IN COLLECTABLE CONDITION, BUT IS MORE OF A FILLER DUE TO THE CONDITION ISSUES.
GRAB THIS BEAUTY FOR ITS MISALIGNED APPLE AND ORIGINAL BLACK INNER!
