We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end.

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 become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.  We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over +22,000 positive feedback.   We use an ultrasonic KLAudio 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!

  • ..|/\|...............................................|/\|..
  • USA - PARLOPHONE - 3071- stereophonic  
  • (Machine "KT" stamped labels inc YEX 169 matrix numbers)

  • RARE *ASTRIX* "I NEED YOU" LABEL CREDITS
  1. ORIGINAL 1965 (superior over USA issue) BRITISH 60 years ago collectible with laminated sleeve & "FLIPBACK" SEAMS of the legendary BEATLES album "HELP!", released in England, with completely different cover and different, far-better track listings from the USA issue ... 
  2. Hard to find this issue with the old UK production "flipback seams" (see photo #2).
  3. Highly superior over the USA pressing with an almost completely different string of terrific memorable tunes, 14 Beatlemania classics! 
  4. 14 tracks and no film music filler - far superior to the USA issue.... 

  5. Considering that Help! functions as the Beatles' fifth album and as the soundtrack to their second film while filming, they continued to release non-LP singles on a regular basis, highlighted by the Bakersfield bounce of "Act Naturally" which adds new flavor (along with an ideal showcase for Ringo's amiable vocals) and "Dizzy Miss Lizzie" gives John an opportunity to flex his rock & roll muscle. George is writing again his two contributions hold their own in catchy bright melodies against Lennon and McCartney's originals and any of their British pop peers. Since Lennon wrote a third more songs than McCartney, it's easy to listen to a pair of minor numbers ("It's Only Love," "Tell Me What You See"), especially since they're overshadowed by four great songs. Lennon's Dylan infatuation holds strong, particularly on the plaintive "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" and the title track, where the brash arrangement disguises Lennon's desperation. Driven by an indelible 12-string guitar, "Ticket to Ride" is another masterpiece and "You're Going to Lose That Girl" is the kind of song McCartney effortlessly tosses off which he does, with the jaunty classics "The Night Before" and "Another Girl," two very fine tunes that simply update his melodic signature. Paul even does better with "I've Just Seen a Face," an irresistible folk-rock gem, and "Yesterday," a simple, beautiful ballad whose arrangement an acoustic guitar supported by a string quartet and composition suggested much more sophisticated and adventurous musical territory, which the group immediately began exploring with Rubber Soul.
