No. 0531165
!!!AN ALL ORIGINAL & COMPLETE1968 FIRST PRESS STEREO!!!
***EX- AUDIO***
This album was The Beatles FIRST release on the now famous Apple label. It was entered into the charts on the 7th of December 1968 and went straight to number one-where it stayed for 7 weeks! Making it the FIRST double album to get the top slot...EVER!
The rather unusual fact about this album is that it was the first release by The Beatles which contained only SOLO material.
By the time 1970 ended, the total sales of this wonderful album were estimated to be 6.5 Million! However...get this...The only other album that beat this a few years later was "Saturday Night fever" !!!

VG+++. GORGEOUSLY shiny vinyl. The vinyl has a some visible marks to her, BUT after playing her through, I found just a very small amount background noise and a tiny, tiny skip on track 2 & 3, with a couple of very light pops (about 5) to the last track on side 2 and track 1 side 3...With some crackle at the end of the last track on side 4...
YOU WILL NOT BE SURPRISED BY FLAWS WHEN BUYING THIS PIECE OF HISTORY-IT'S ALL LISTED HERE-AS I HEAR IT ON MY DECK.
Wonderful deep & rich sound reproduction
WITH "BIRTHDAY" KICKING IN AT THE STAT OF SIDE 3-WITH ENOUGH BASS AND DRUMS TO MAKE YOU JUMP!
Lovely and quiet for the fade in and out of Helter Skelter.
A joy to listen to, which would only improve with a professional clean....Really nice playback!
EACH RECORD IS AS FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN.
The labels: EX-. All four of the labels are extremely bright and clean with the DARKER apple.
Only very light spindle marks and light hole wear to each label, but these can only be seen when angling to the light.
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES FOR YOURSELVES
"Mfd in the U.K." to each of the labels.
"An EMI Recording" printed to each side BUT without the brackets!
WITHOUT writing.

The spine remains strong, with a some small areas of lifting to the laminate just on the spine creating a kind of crease...\really nothing at all to worry about.

Light rubbing to the corners.
