Description
The Beatles
A Hard Day's Night
'ERNEST' J Day cover
(Rather than "E J Day")
1/1 Mothers too
This Lp was released on the 10th July1964. The 45rpm was released in April and at that time the Beatles' film had yet to get a title and as the story goes, Ringo emerged from a long days work saying "It's been a hard day," then seeing it was already dark added " 's night." This was then announced to the press as the title on the 17th of April. Ringo may have seen this phrase before in Lennons book "Sad Michael."
Holding a number 1 postition for a huge 21 weeks, from July the 25th!!!
This is also the ONLY Beatles album to have every track written by Lennon/McCartney.

WOW-LOVELY AND EARLY
Vinyl:
168g.
VG. Lovely heavy vinyl with a gorgeous sheen. There are quite a few light marks....BUT certainly NOTHING TO MAKE HER JUMP OR SKIP-I have just listened to the whole album and didn't find any less enjoyment in the majority of playback, just some occasional background crackle with light pops, that's it! When the songs get going, the background noise is much less evident and almost completely fades away for the majority of tracks.
DEEP, RICH BASS AND CLEAR HIGHS-QUITE UNSUSPECTING FROM A VISIUAL GRADING.
Very nice indeed.
Flat Flat, FLAT!
Labels: VG-. There are quite a few light spindle marks, visible when angled towards the light, as well as an amount of central hole wear...Please see the detailed pictures....
Lovely raised "KT" tax code to side 2.
NO WRITING
Outer text "The Parlophone Co. LTD" (ONLY 1st Press have this) it DOES have the "Sold in the uk.." text.
"Record First Published 1964"
NO WRITING
Cover: G++. The cover has been used and loved, with little fingers of spidering eminating from the seams and some crescents of spidering to the opening.
There are 4 pin holes-one to each corner.
The back card has some light discolouration.
There is a small sticker in the top left corner, with initials on it.
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES FOR YOURSELVES.
Good STRONG & LEGIBLE spine.
*It is the rarer E J Day cover...typically manufactured at a ration of around 10:1 in comparsion to the Garrod & Lofthouse sleeves.
Don't find this very often for Hard Days Night cover!!*
The flipbacks are in pretty solid condition, but there is wear to them, as can be seen in the pics. The bottom has a small split/hole..Not too bad though.
WOULD, AT LEAST, MAKE A GREAT FILLER.
Inner: Period die-cut plain white inner.
"Made In Great Britain"
In EX+ condition.
A nice example of a classic record and far from trashed-NO skips or jumps....Comes with the rarer ERNEST J Day cover too!
