Description

PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.   OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week.   Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.   We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

AUDIOPHILE...incredible sonic sound quality!!

The Beatles issued Hey Jude (The Beatles Again), a crafted selection of A & B Side 45's in Febeuary of 1970...

OLD/RARE and STILL SEALED (NEVER OPENED IN APPROX OVER 30 YEARS) ...the old original store price tag of $8.97 on the outer cellophane is enough evidence to tell you this issue is from a long long time ago....

STILL FACTORY SEALED (for the USA import market) comes this was the HIGH QUALITY (see: AUDIOPHILE) Japan first pressing of the Apple label issue 

Superior supersonic Japanese vinyl with lyrics pages insert ....Japanese vinyl releases are premium quality pressings, much sought after by audiophiles and collectors alike. In the 1960s Toshiba pioneered top quality red vinyl pressings using their trademark ‘Ever-Clean’ process this utilised a special ingredient intended to prevent the build-up of static electricity on the vinyl. Japanese pressings are synonymous with quality - the vinyl shines like no other vinyl - everything about their releases feels special. When US audiophile label Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab first released their series of high quality pressings the records were manufactured in Japan. The sonic quality of Japanese pressings is considered to be among the best in the world and, in addition, they are beautifully presented, their covers usually printed on better quality heavy stock paper and often including a bonus lyric insert with dual language Japanese & English text.   This is a NICE collectible that is not getting any easier to find...future investment item....

***Includes the all important original outer "OBI" strip to the pressing...

One of the nicest collections by the Beatles, released in 1970 late in their career, Hey Jude(The Beatles Again), even if not an « official UK release », has always been a favourite among Beatles aficionados. The Lp consists of singles & b-sides, most of them never released on LP. The compilation is chronological, and gives the occasional fan a good overview of the Beatles career. The recordings of Hey Jude and I Should Have Known Better are completely different mixes... You start off at the optimistic peak of Beatlemania and close with the sarcastic bitter end with Lennon worrying about being crucified. In between you get a taste of their insanely brilliant psychedelia ("Rain"), their brilliant political rock ("Revolution"), their brilliant emotional depth ("Don't Let Me Down"), and the most brilliant guitar solo in their whole catalog (contained in "Old Brown Shoe")...As a record it works quite well, and given the Beatles genius, especially in the area of creating exquisite and ultra-progressive singles, it comes as no suprise. The bass guitar sound on this record is especially revolutionary. "Paperback Writer" works particularly well, not having aged at all in all the years after its release. A couple of recent tracks, "Old Brown Shoe" and "The Ballad of John And Yoko," make their vinyl debut here, and as usual give the consumer excellent value for the money. "Old Brown Shoe" is one of George Harrison's great lost classics, and the Beatles ensemble playing on this track belies the tension that was prevalent during the group's final days.
