Key Details
• This album was the Beatles’ first official UK compilation LP, released for the Christmas market in 1966 while the band was between Revolver and Sgt. Pepper.
• It collected hit singles and album tracks from 1962–1966, including “She Loves You,” “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” and “Day Tripper,” plus the first UK LP appearance of “Bad Boy.”
• These labels have the EMI boxed logo and “Gramophone Co. Ltd.” text — these are telltale features of a 1971–1973 pressing. By the mid-’70s, the label rim text changed to “EMI Records Ltd.”, which this one does not have.
• Therefore, this copy is an early 1970s UK stereo pressing (not a 1966 first pressing).
⸻
Condition (based on photos)
• Vinyl: Looks glossy with light marks; appears to be VG+ to EX- (Very Good Plus to Excellent Minus).
• Labels: Clean, minimal spindle wear.
• Sleeve: Bright front artwork; some age toning and light wear on back and edges. VG condition overall.
• Inner Sleeve: Original EMI advertising sleeve with patent numbers — period correct.
