Description
The Beatles
Abbey Road
ALL COMPLETE & With Her Majesty credit
GREAT AUDIO TOO (with a light warming crackle :)
Fantastic 1969 Beatles UK LP. This was the Beatles' 12th LP, released on the 26th September. It was also the last official Beatles release that was recorded by them. Staying at number one for almost 18 consecutive weeks, it was only knocked off by The Rolling Stones' "Let It Bleed."

Vinyl:
QUALITY HEAVYWEIGHT 134g
VG(+).
Lovely vinyl, I can only see light marks to her but there are quite a few of them....However; I have just given here a gentle professional vaccum clean and then had the utter pleasure of listening to her-all the way through.
There was a clean and clear, deep, rich stereo sound reproduction with just light and insignificant bit of background crackle, with the only light revolutionary pops happening on Sun King-but even those weren't offensive at all....It simply reminded me I am listening to a quality slab of vinyl from the 60's and not an MPEG!
**Really was a joy to listen too**
CERTAINLY NO JUMPS, SKIPS OR STICKS...Even on a very light arm setting.
FLAT as the day she was born.
Labels:
VG+/EX-.
There are only light spindle marks. These are only seen when angled towards the light...With barely any hole wear at all.
NOW WRITING
NO "Sold in the UK..." text.
Outer text begins: "Apple Records all rights.."
"Mfd. in U.K." text. The labels are nice and vibrant.
This is the 1st pressing DARKER version of this Apple label.
The last song credit DOES HAVE "Her Majesty" on the Side 2 label.
Cover:
EX.
This FULLY LAMINATED cover of this LP has been well looked after.
The alignment of the Apple Logo on the back is inline with the text. The spine is lovely and strong. Barely even any spidering to the lamination either!....NOTHING at all to worry about.
NO WRITING
NO RIPS
Lightly rubbed corners and some faint outline of where the record has been for the last 53 years.
VERY CLEAN AND STRONG SPINE, with just a small patch of rubbing (but not all the way through-it just affects the last 3 letters of Beatles).
Please see the detailed images for yourselves and click on them for even larger images and more detail.
Also why not read my feedback for fair gradings and happy customers.
WOULD FRAME VERY WELL.
Inner:
EX+/NMINT!
ORIGINAL white, die-cut inner, IN TOP CONDITION.
NO splits or writing.
"PATENTS NOs. 1,125,555" & "MADE IN ENGLAND"
THIS REMAINS A SOLID COLLECTABLE PIECE.
GRAB THIS BEAUTY FOR ITS LOOKS AND GREAT SOUND REPRODUCTION-ALL WRAPPED UP IN THE ORIGINAL PACKAGE.
