 A Hard Day's Night- ULTRA ULTRA RARE  New Zealand 1964 Black label STEREO pressing!

                                                                > > >  THIS IS THE HOLY GRAIL!!  <<<

This LP was released in mid 1964 when HMV NZ was changing from the old style black Parlophone labels (very similar to the UK labels of the period) to the newer light blue labels.This LP was the first in New Zealand to be released in both mono AND stereo and FOR A SHORT TIME the stereo pressing was the old style black Parlophone label with silver print and the words STEREO above the spindle hole (see picture above).Shortly afterwards, HMV NZ changed all Parlophone labels to a lighter blue label and the black label was gone forever! [the blue label is much easier to find than the black]

The vinyl is still in amazing condition although there are light scuffs but it plays very well.The labels are in amazing condition with virtually no spindle hole marks at all.This pressing is the older style thick vinyl.

The cover shows no rips or tears and is fully laminated on the front.The spine has a couple of cracks.The back cover is clean and free of marks apart from some minor ringwear. The back flaps are clean and undamaged.The gold 'stereo' sticker is in great condition on the top flap.

The overall condition of this LP is VERY GOOD PLUS.

UK 1st. generation pressing plates used YEX 126-1 YEX 127-1 (these matrix numbers can be seen in the first 2 pictures) so the sound is IDENTICAL to the first UK release.
