LP

       

You are bidding on a very rare 1st pressing of the classic 'Revolver' LP by The Beatles.

This extremely rare pressing  includes the withdrawn 'remix 11' version of 'Tomorrow Never Know', available only on copies with the XEX 606-1 side 2 matrix. This was withdrawn on the day of issue due to Lennon not being happy with this particular mix.

The usenet guide to the beatles recordings had this to say about this rare mix:

Remix 11 is extremely rare, and is believed to have been manufactured on only the first day of UK pressing. Most copies have matrix 606-2 or 606-3 on side B, and are the standard version heard on all copies of other countries' pressings. Remix 11 is mono remix 11 while the standard version is remix 8. In the rare Remix 11 the vocal is louder and clearer over the effects, the fade is slightly longer and has more piano, and the effects are faded up quite differently.

This  1966 1st MONO pressing is on the black & yellow Parlophone label: PMC 7009


Both labels carry the 'Sold in UK..' text & 'Gramophone Co..' rims.


This earliest of labels show the initial 'Dr. Robert' spelling on the side 2 label.


The 'KT' tax/price code is visible in the centre of the side 1 label.

Housed in a front laminated, tri-flipback 'Ernest J. Day' printed mono cover.
Complete with the 'Patents Applies For' pain white inner-sleeve.

Matrix numbers: XEX 605-2 & XEX 606-1

Condition:

The vinyl is in exceptional condition and sounds fantastic. I have played this through and there are no scratches, jumps, clicks etc. There are a few small scratches on the vinyl but THESE DO NOT EFFECT PLAY AT ALL. There is a light crackle at the beginning of each side but this is minimal.

The sleeve is in equally excellent condition. There is no shelf wear on the edges bar the odd small dent on the bottom - but even then it is incredibly small and there is no split in the sleeve. In short, it is a lovely example.
