Description
MONO The Beatles SGT PEPPER ‘S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND Parlophone PMC 7027 1st UK pressing with "Made In Gt. Britain" and "Sold In U.K." on labels. Fully test played all the way through to determine condition. This copy, like most copies of this iconic album, has been played and loved many times, but the high quality UK pressing and thick vinyl has preserved this record well.
VINYL in VG condition with several light hairlines and paper scuffs. Plays VG with background crackle that does not overwhelm the listening experience. I always press the "MONO" button on my amplifier, that greatly reduces the background noise. I have listened to this on headphones even with excellent results. Not perfect, but still rocks!
COVER in G+ with creasing, especially on the bottom right corner, and top left corners. Corner damage, and paper loss/chipping on the spine where the middle section has splitting in the middle where the record started to come through the spine. The inner gatefold looks good. No inner sleeve or cutout included.
