The opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! The only real noticeable flaw is light yellowing. SUPERB COVER!!!!

Vinyl Condition (Visual & Play-Graded):
Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT. The record still retains its original glossiness. The record must grade as Ex/Ex-! The labels look quite good with the exception of the light imprint of pencil (hardly noticeable).

Artist & Album Info:
"Long Tall Sally Capitol T-6063 (mono) Released: May 11, 1964 This was the last unique Canadian Beatles LP...and unique it was. The packaging and track selection would indicate to me at least, that these were hectic times at Capitol Records of Canada. After having issued a repackaged UK album (Beatlemania! With the Beatles) and an entirely new one (Twist and Shout) made from other UK releases, Capitol was now seeing activity from it's cousin to the south. Capitol Records in the U.S. released Meet the Beatles in January and the Beatles Second Album on April 10. The Long Tall Sally album is a snapshot of this transformation from UK to US formats. Capitol of Canada must of been short on time when it came to designing a cover since they went ahead with a modified version of the US Second Album artwork. The Long Tall Sally title and selected song list neatly replaced it's US counterpart. Since this album didn't include She Loves You, this area of the cover was replaced with the Capitol 6000 series logo. The back cover features the same US artwork but includes numerous Canadian markings and photos of both previous Canadian LP's. Across the top of the back cover it reads "The Beatles with a new recording of 'Roll Over Beethoven' - and a programme of your favourites and their favourites". This must have been confusing for owners of Beatlemania! With the Beatles as they already owned Roll Over Beethoven and three other tracks on this album. This "new recording" was more than likely the US "Duophonic" version.

In addition to the four duplicate tracks, Capitol of Canada included another eight, one more than the 11 found on the Second Album. Both LP's included a couple of B-sides and two new tracks (Long Tall Sally and I Call Your Name) which wouldn't be issued in the UK until June 19. To round out Long Tall Sally Capitol of Canada added I Want to Hold Your Hand and This Boy (from the UK single and US Meet the Beatles) and the two leftover tracks from Please Please Me LP: I Saw Her Standing There (US Meet the Beatles) and Misery. The latter track was not to appear on an album in the US until Rarities was released in 1980. In the US the Second Album contained three tracks not found on Long Tall Sally: Money (Beatlemania! With the Beatles), She Loves You (Twist and Shout LP) and Thank You Girl. This last track didn't appear on any of the three unique Canadian LP's but was issued as B-side twice! In 1963 with From Me to You and on Do You Want to Know a Secret in 1964. Track Listing Side 1:I Want to Hold Your Hand; I Saw Her Standing There; You Really Got a Hold On Me; Devil in her Heart; Roll Over Beethoven; Misery. Side 2: Long Tall Sally; I Call Your Name; Please Mister Postman; This Boy; I'll Get You; You Can't Do That."

THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND (ESPECIALLY IN THIS AMAZING CONDITION)!!!!

Multiple Auction Discount Special

Revolution will be offering a discount to multiple auction winners.

Each additional auction win will generate a rebate of $1.25. For example, four auction wins would provide a rebate of $3.75 (3 x $1.25).

Additional Savings

Canada Post's pricing schedule is skewed to reward multiple auction winners as well. For example (delivery to the USA):

One Record (less than 500g): Surface Mail - $6.50
Air Mail - $8.25

2-3 Records (500g - 1kg):
Surface Mail - $9.50
Air Mail - $12.00

4-5 Records (1kg - 1.5kg):
Expedited (includes insurance) - $13.50

The last example results in an average shipping cost per record of $2.70 - $3.40 not including the multiple auction discount. Payment & Shipment Details

Once an auction has finished, Revolution endeavors to provide the fastest possible service. Winning bidders should anticipate an email requesting shipping information (name and delivery address). Once a response has been received, a pricing quotation for delivery will be sent (in most cases, providing the auction winner with delivery/pricing options).

Revolution is NOT in the business of profiting from price-gauging on shipping. Mark-ups are standardized based on number of records purchased (based on overhead such as sleeves, cleaning solution, tape, etc.)

Once payment has been received, we strive to have your package out in the post the very next day.
