The Beatles "Help" LP
Label : Original 1965 1st Danish mono pressing on "shadowed" black/silver "8 star" Parlophone label : PMC 1255
matrix/runout : XEX 549-2 / XEX 550-2
ONE OF THE RAREST DANISH BEATLES RELEASES !!!
- IN FACT IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE EVEN RARER THAN THE DANISH HOTTEST HITS COMP WHICH I ALSO HAVE UP FOR AUCTION. - I HAVE ONLY HEARD OF THIS "HELP!" RELEASE WITH THE "8 STARS" AND "SHADOWED" PARLOPHONE LETTERS ON LABEL - BUT NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE.
"PLEASE PLEASE ME" - "WITH THE BEATLES" & "A HARD DAYS NIGHT" ALBUMS ALSO CAME OUT WITH THE "8 STAR LABEL" BUT NOT BEATLES FOR SALE. WHY THE LABEL SUDDENLY IS USED AGAIN HERE ON "HELP!" IS SOMEWHAT OF A MYSTERY...
I DON´T KNOW HOW SOUGHT AFTER THIS RELEASE IS - SINCE IT IS RELATIVELY UNKNOWN AND SIMPLY DOES NOT SHOW UP.
BUT I KNOW THAT IT WILL DEFINITELY BE SOMEWHAT ONE OF A GEM IN A BEATLES COLLECTION !!!
THE COVER IS THE UK STANDARD MONO COVER - WHICH WAS USED FOR THE DANISH "HELP!" RELEASES. "Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Patents pending" TEXT AT BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER.
SOUND :
LISTEN TO FULL ALBUM AND CHECK QUALITY AT LINK BELOW : (taken from actual record for sale) (RECORDED USING A TECHNICS 1210 WITH A CONCORDE PICK-UP AND AN ORTOFON NEEDLE)

/VG
(VINYL HAS 8-10 HAIRLINES AND MODERATE SCUFFING ON EACH SIDE.
EVERYTHING SEEMS VERY SUPERFICIAL BUT THE RECORD PLAYS WITH SOME CRACKLE. - IT LOOKS BETTER THAN IT SOUNDS.
BUT NO DEEP MARKS THAT CAUSES LOUD POPS AND CLICKS.
RECORD HAS A VERY SLIGHT WARP AT 10CM ON OUTER EDGE.
VERY HARD TO SEE WHEN PLACED ON A FLAT SURFACE - SINCE IT IS ONLY 1-2 millimeters - AND IT DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY.
LABELS ARE CLEAN WITH A FEW FAINT SPINDLE MARKS AT CENTER HOLE.
I VERY MUCH RECOMMEND THAT YOU CHECK SOUNDCLIPS!!!)
HAPPY BIDDING!!
