Description
THE BEATLES
"ABBEY ROAD" APPLE PCS 7088 LABEL TEXT HAS "AN EMI RECORDING" AND "Mfd in UK"
RELEASED IN 1978 IN VERY LIMITED QUANTITIES ON GREEN VINYL APPARENTLY FOR EXPORT BUT ITS HARD TO FIND ANY DETAIL ON PRODUCTION NUMBERS AND COUNTRIES IT WAS AVAILABLE IN
DON'T APPEAR TO BE ANY STAMPERS NUMBERS OR LETTERS JUST MATRICES WHICH ARE YEX.749 AND YEX.750
THE RECORD SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL LAMINATED UK PRINTED VERSION AND IS IN SUPERB CONDITION WITH AN UNCRUSHED SPINE AND CLEAN OPENING EDGE WITH VERY LIMITED CREASING AND THE SLEEVE REAR HAS A MADE IN ENGLAND STICKER WHICH WOULD THINK CONFIRM ITS EXPORT STATUS
WHITE INNER IS AN UNUSUAL DIE CUT VERSION TO BOTH SIDES WITH ROUNDED CORNERS AND IS IN CLEAN CONDITION
VINYL RECORD BECAUSE OF ITS ITS DARKER COLOUR DOES SHOW SOME HANDLING MARKS NOTHING FEELABLE AND THE LABELS ARE CLEAN AND LEGIBLE BUT DO SHOW SOME SPINDLE MARKS AROUND THE CENTRES
EARLY COLOURED VINYL PRESSINGS WERE SUPPOSEDLY NOT AS GOOD FOR AUDIO REPRODUCTION AS THEIR BLACK COUNTERPARTS BUT THIS PLAYED THROUGH WITH WHAT WAS CLASSED AT THE TIME AS LIGHT SURFACE NOISE DUE TO THE PRESSING PROCESS
THESE COLOURED VINYL RECORDINGS WERE CLASSED WITH PICTURE DISC'S FROM THE SAME TIME AS MAINLY A COLLECTABLE RATHER THAN FOR PLAYING
WE CAN ONLY REPORT ON OUR PLAY TEST, DIFFERENT SYSTEMS CAN GIVE A DIFFERENT RESPONSE AND PLEASE REMEMBER THIS PRESSING IS NOW OVER 45 YEARS OLD
