Description
THE BEATLES - 'REEL MUSIC'
1982 UK *1st PRESSING* LP
Arguably one of the most attractive, best sounding and underrated packages put together by EMI in March 1982 just before Apple retained full control of their catalogue. Cut by The Beatles original cutting engineer, the legendary Harry Moss, it remained on catalogue for less than 2 years.
This UNPLAYED copy is a 1st UK pressing from 1982 on the '2-EMI Box' label: PCS 7218
Housed in a unlaminated 'Garrod & Lofthouse' printed complete with full-colour 12-page booklet & heavy card printed inner-sleeve.
Matrix numbers: PCS 7218 A-1 & PCS 7218 B-1
Harry Moss' initials 'HTM' appear etched into the side 1 run-out.
Disc weight: 125g

A superb, unworn example which apart from hint of minor shelfwear to the lower corners, is as it left the shops 27 years ago!
