This LP is best known as being the first album in the US to contain "Hey Jude."  In fact, this original version has that song as its title along the spine.  The actual title is "The Beatles Again" as the collection is some of their biggest hits ever.  Capitol/Apple wanted to capitalize on their fame but certainly wanted an LP version of Hey Jude in the US market.

The seller is not an expert so please use the photos and feel free to message for additional info.  International buyers please read our policies below prior to bidding.  

CONDITION:
VINYL:
This LP has been played but to the eye, it was clearly not played very much and certainly with great care.  Incredibly clean and well cared for.  Visually it appears in top condition with minimal if any scuffs visible.  We do not listen to the entire LP but a sampling confirms aurally what the eye sees visually:  Great copy.  Generic white inner seems to have been the original inner as this was acquired from the album's original owner.

COVER:
Carefully stored and properly protected, this cover is fully covered in shrink.  A couple of breathe holes are evident.  There is wear at the opening edge where the shrink has slipped back.  Some corner and mild edge wear can be seen as well, with the most wear on the opening bottom corner on the right side.  The spine is intact with a ding or two perhaps but overall a very nice spine.  No stickers, writing or holes.  No splits.  Great shrink wrapped cover of the original 1st US Issue of this top LP.  Labels are pristine as well.  Overall this is a great cover and a fantastic disc.  Top copy for sure. 

INTERNATIONAL
A reminder we always comply with EBAY and Customs official policy and code the "value" slot of the Customs Form with the actual purchase price.

OUR PRACTICES AND POLICIES:
Most records are visually inspected and then washed and cleaned.  Higher valued 45 records will include audio samples of the exact record being listed.  Our photos are also original ones of the exact item.  We describe condition and version to the best of our ability but the seller is not a records grading expert so please inquire in advance for additional details or concerns concerning quality or version of a particular record.  We do not always listen or grade but we do offer as much visible information as possible. We always take multiple clear, close photos and invite questions about quality or version of an item in advance of bidding.  Please await our invoice prior to payment.  This is particularly important with international purchases as the value of the final price effects the method of shipment.  See below.

Our refund policy is based on total buyer satisfaction so we only refund full payment upon return.  We do not offer post purchase partial refunds.   As our listings always include clear photos and audio, the responsibility for return postage is with the buyer.

SHIPPING:
USPS is our carrier.  We ship Media Mail domestically in the US.  We do combine shipping on US shipping but that is not always an option with International.  We use 1st International but there are limits on weight so please await an invoice should you purchase more than one item.
