THE BEATLES - PLEASE PLEASE ME 1963 1ST/ 2ND PRESSING 12" VINYL LP
THIS IS A CROSS-OVER PRESSING HAVING THE 2ND PRESSING BLACK & GOLD NORTHERN SONGS LABELS ON SIDE 1 AND THE INCORRECT 1ST PRESSING DICK JAMES CREDITS ON SIDE 2.
THE SLEEVE IS AN ORGINAL 1ST PRESSING GOLD SLEEVE WITH 'ANGUS MCBEAN' OFF-SET TO THE FAR RIGHT BOTTOM CORNER. IT HAS RETAINED AN OVERALL STURDY STRUCTURE HOUSING THE RECORD WELL. THE TOP AND BOTTOM FOLD-OVER SEAMS ARE CELLOTAPED BUT WELL ADHERED. THE SPINE IS NEAT AND HAS KEPT CLEAR AND READBALE TITLE TEXT. THERE ARE CREASES, TINY SURFACES TEARS, CORNER BUMPS AND DISCOLORATION BUT IT IS IN OVERALL GOOD CONDITION WITH NO MAJOR FAULTS SUCH AS SPLITS OR TEARS. IT HAS AN ORIGINAL RECORD SHOP STICKER ON THE REAR PANEL.
THE INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL. IT HAS THE 'MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN' TEXT AND IS MADE OF LIGHT PAPER MATERIAL. IT IS INTACT WITH NO SPLITS OR TEARS.
THE VINYL IS HEAVY-WEIGHT AND LIES COMPLETELY FLAT ON THE TURNTABLE. IT IS IN FAIR CONDITION. THERE ARE LOTS OF SURFACE SCRATCHES BUT NOTHING AT ALL FEEL-ABLE.
THE LABELS HAVE SPINDLE WEAR BUT THE GOLD TEXT IS STILL PROMINENT. IT HAS THE MT TAX CODE.
THERE IS A STICK ON THE TRACK 'PLEASE PLEASE ME' - SOMETIMES CONTINUES TO PLAY ON AFTER A FEW REVOLUTIONS.
THERE ARE SEVERAL JUMPS ON 'LOVE ME DO'.
THERE IS LOW-LEVEL BACKGROUND CRACKLE THROUGH QUIETER SECTIONS WHICH DOES NOT OVERCOME THE MUSIC.
THE OVERALL SOUND QUALITY IS GOOD. IT HAS WARM DEPTH, LOUD BASS AND LUCID INSTRUMENTALS AND CLEAR VOCALS AND AN ORIGINAL TONAL BALANCE WHICH TENDS TO BE UNIQUE TO BLACK & GOLD'S.
WILL BE SENT IN A RECORD MAILER WITH STIFFENERS. THE RECORD WILL BE HOUSED IN A GENERIC SLEEVE WITH THE MAIN SLEEVE AND INNER SLEEVE PLACED SEPARATELY. SAME OR NEXT DAY DISPATCH.
