STUNNING MEGA RARE ORIGINAL LEGENDARY 1966 UK MONO 606-1 MATRIX FIRST PRESSING OF 'REVOLVER' BY THE BEATLES
This auction needs no introduction really!!!!!!!!! You are bidding on the HOLY GRAIL for all Beatles Collectors and fans of 60's music in general. The 1ST EVER PRESSING of Revolver!!!!!!! With the much sought-after side 2 matrix number 606-1. It is so rare because it contains the 'Remix 11' version of Tomorrow Never Knows!!!!!!!! This legendary version of 'Tomorrow Never Knows' was pulled immediately by John Lennon and the record was quickly withdrawn, it has now become INFAMOUS and almost IMPOSSIBLE to find. The very special version of tomorrow never knows contained on this LP has never been made available on any other format!!!! It has the rare raised 'KT' tax code stamp 1966 and the all important 'Sold in the UK' and 'Gramophone' text in the centre labels and comes with its original Laminated Garrod & Lofthouse Flipback Sleeve!!!! Comes with original 'Patents' inner sleeve!!!! This auction has a 1 PENNY START and NO RESERVE AND NO SURCHARGES!!!!! Please CHECK MY EXCELLENT FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE!!! Due to the price this auction will probably reach, I will attempt to describe it as accurately as possible...

The Record
The vinyl itself is in VERY GOOD condition, it is bright and shiny with virtually NO groove wear (this is common on most albums of the era, caused by the big heavy needles of the 60's and 70's). It does not skip or jump at all and just has a few ticks here and there some very faint spider webs, and surface scuffs and minor scratches. The centre labels are superb with no tears or marks and just a few spindle lines.
The Sleeve
The Garrod & Lofthouse Laminated Flipback Sleeve is in EXCELLENT condition with virtually NO EDGE WEAR and a GOOD STRONG SPINE!!!! There are NO seam splits, NO creases, NO rips and NO unwanted writing NO BLEMISHES OF ANY KIND ANYWHERE!!! The laminate is beautiful, smooth and uncracked and the sleeve is super stiff. There are just a few very small laminate creases coming out from the spine, and, importantly - there is none of the yellowing commonly associated with this sleeve! The cover has the MONO label printed in the top right corner and is complete with its original 'UK Patents' inner sleeve which is also in good condition. This sleeve is simply STUNNING and a great example of this very rare sleeve!!!!!!
Not much else to say really except don't miss this one as you will be VERY HARD PUSHED TO FIND ANOTHER COPY OF THIS LEGENDARY AND VERY RARE LP AGAIN. THESE RECORDS ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET HOLD OF NOWADAYS AND THE ONES KNOCKING ABOUT ARE MOSTLY TRASHED!!!!! REVOLVER IS ARGUABLY THE BEATLES GREATEST RECORD AND ONE OF THE GREATEST POP ALBUMS EVER MADE, DON'T MISS THIS ONE AS THESE 1ST PRESS (606-1 MATRIX) UK COPIES ARE MASSIVELY RARE (ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION)!!!!! THIS IS A SERIOUS INVESTMENT FOR THE FUTURE THE VALUE OF THIS LP WILL ONLY RISE AND RISE, DON'T MISS OUT!
