Description
"Compression and Limiting:
According to Beatles Book #66, George Harrison visited Capitol Records in
conjunction with his work on the Jackie Lomax album for Apple. While he
was there, he discovered that Capitol had applied compression and limiting
to the whole LP. George was angry. He compelled them to destroy the first
33 lacquers for the album, which had contained the compressed form. A few
copies of the album had been pressed in the Scranton plant using the
compressed/limited stampers; these got out and are rare collectors’ items."
Number very low A1400224. A28, B28, A28, A28 stampers. Has all 7 label errors. Vinyl is graded Worn. The vinyl does have multiple scratches. Some of the scratches cause pops. I am selling it as a rare collectable because of the stampers.
