NOTES
  Up for auction here Germany's first unique compilation. It is the worldwide first press, moreover, it is the only mono release. All re-issues were pressed in stereo (in 1969, 1971, 1976, and 1977), cos the mono version was deleted by Odeon in 1966. While the cover has seen better days, Labels and Vinyl are in a top quality, please refer to grading details later on in this listing.

The Beatles Beat is the first out of eight compilation albums unique to Germany released between 1964 and 1972. Three (!) of them were "re-releases" of this record, with just a different cover and licensed by German Book Clubs:
  • July 1964, "The Beatles", Red Deutscher Schallplattenclub E 043 (mono), J 033 (stereo)
  • October 1965, "The Beatles Beat", Orange Odeon Impression 6086 (stereo only)
  • June 1966, "And Now: The Beatles", Orange SR International 73 735 (stereo only)

For collectors who focus on valuable German Beatles vinyl, this copy is a clear must.

Please see grading details for a more elaborate description of the record's condition.

IMPORTANT NOTE for GERMAN BIDDERS: Please constact us before bidding, for otherwise we will remove your bid without prior notice. This is in view of constantly recurring problems, often caused by language. It's NOT an offense. Collectors want harmony and consensus, not trouble.

1st Class Packaging

We are Collectors, hence every record is stored (and will be sent) in a sophisticated way. Many experienced collectors were thrilled by our unique, bullet-proof "packing technicque". Original cover, inner sleeve(s), prospective inserts, and/or whatever may come across, are stored separately. The vinyl sits in a neutral antistatic, padded inner sleeve, which is housed in a stable, neutral cardboard cover. Package is protected by one (or more) transparent plastic sleeves. Finally, all items are being wrapped with thick bubble foil and go to a professional record mailer, which is then being properly sealed with water-resistant tape.

For packaging, we use brand-new material & items only. Whatever eBay MIGHT display: INSURED, SIGNED-IN, TRACKED SHIPPING IS FREE. ANY DESTINATION ON THIS PLANET.
(PLEASE NOTE that pictured record is an EXAMPLE only. It is NOT the item up for auction. Thank you.)

(plain) Label Side A   NM- Label Side B   NM- Vinyl Side A   EX- Vinyl Side B   EX-   Audio Grading   Side A   [N/A] Side B   [N/A]   We use superb vinyl equipment with its heart being an Ortofan Diamond System and gold plated contacts all around.
Audible checks are performed with a Pro-Ject Audio system connected to a DENON PMA 520-AE amplifier, with a Sennheiser 350 headset.     Remarks   As for the Cover and related issues, please refer to pictures provided right after. Spine is in a perfectly readable shape.
Laminated front cover is completely glossy. There's a split on spine as well as on all sides, as pictured. Back something yellows. Scuffed edges. We grade the front slightly better than the back, VG/VG-.
Perfect labels in near mint condition, no stains, spots, writings, or whatever.
Vinyl is shiny. Many hairlines, but that's the only flaw, a straight Ex-.

This record has not been audio graded. We grade most but not all of our records audible.

Please keep in mind that an opinion is bound to be subjective. Refer to pictures, provided extensively.
For a short explanation of applied grading, please see remarks on every listing's bottom of page.   back to TOP   Pictures (all pictures taken by our NIKON D3200 24 MP prior to auction)   back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP back to TOP     More rare Collectibles ~ already on auction, or soon to come (all records 2nd, 3rd, or 4th/whatever copies from our own collection)   France, 1st, OSX 231, Horse-Cover Germany, 1st, Dark Red HoerZu, NEAR MINT U.K., 1st, PCS 3071, STEREO Sans Serif Germany, 1st, R/W/G Odeon ZTOX 5550, Sold to Allied Forces only Germany, 1st, Green Odeon OPX 82 U.K, 1st, PMC 7027, FOURTH PROOF/ AR D 1321 , Excellent/PLUS Germany, ULTRA RARE SMO Blue Odeon
