THE BEATLES RUBBER SOUL WAS FIRST RELEASED ON THE 3rd DECEMBER 1965 ON THE PARLOPHONE RECORD LABEL PMC 1267 MONO FORMAT, THEY WERE "LOUD CUT" VERSIONS. THIS IS A SECOND PRESSING PROBABLY PRESSED IN EARLY 1966 AND IS A "NORMAL" PRESSING, MATRIX: XEX 579-4/XEX 580-4., THE LABEL FONT IS PRINTED IN "TIME NEW ROMAN" TYP SET FOR SONG TITLES AND ARTIST NAMES ETC. SIDE TWO LEBEL HAS THE KT TAX CODE.
THE SLEEVE PRINTERS NAME AND CREDIT: "12 LL GARROD & LOFTHOUSE LTD" PATENT PENDING BOTTOM RIGHT HAND SIDE. THE PARLOGHONE LOGO MARK WITH "TRADE MARK OF THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD" UNDERNEATH AT THE REAR BOTTOM LEFTHAND SIDE. FRONT COVER SHOWS A PHOTO OF THE BEATLES, THERE IS A LOOSE THREAD SHOWN ON THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF JOHN'S JACKET. INNER TRACING PAPER-LINED "USE EMITEX" DIE CUT SLEEVE.
THE SLEEVE CONDITION IS VERY GOOD, FRONT COVER RETAINING ALL ITS ORIGINAL SHEEN, VERY LITTLE ROUNDING OF THE CORNERS, STRONG SPINE, TITLE CLEARLY READABLE, A LITTLE CREASING TO EDGES, THE OPENING IS FIRM. BACK COVER HAS AGE RELATED YELLOWING PARTICULARLY ON THE OPENING EDGE. THE INNER IS EXCELLENT, NO SPLITS OR CREASING.
THE VINYL: VISUALLY THERE ARE NO SCRATCHES AND YOU HAVE TO LOOK HARD TO FIND ANY LIGHT MARKS. PLAYBACK: I HAVE LISTENED TO BOTH SIDES TWISE, THE SOUND IS CLEAR AND PUNCHY, THERE ARE SOME CLICKS AND POPS ESPECIALLY THE LAST TRACK SIDE TWO "RUN FOR YOUR LIFE" ALTHOUGH I CAN'T SEE ANY VISIBLE REASON. THE RECORD STILL GIVES A LOT OF PLEASURE FOR THE LISTENER. OVERALL THIS IS A GOOD LOOKING AND SOUNDING COPY FOR ANY BEATLE FAN.
