THIS IS A VERY GOOD AND VERY RARE TRANSITIONAL UK FIRST AND SECOND PRESSING MONO COPY OF THE 1965 BEATLES CLASSIC "RUBBER SOUL."
ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSINGS OF THIS RECORD CARRIED THE MATRIX NUMBERS XEX-579-1 AND XEX 580-1 AND HAVE BECOME KNOWN AS THE "LOUD CUT". THE PRESSING RUN WAS HALTED AFTER ONLY A FEW DAYS SO A SUBSTITUTE MIX COULD BE USED. SECOND PRESSINGS THEN HAD THE MATRIX NUMBERS XEX 579-4 AND XEX 580-4.
THIS RARE VERSION HAS THE SECOND PRESSING SIDE ONE - AND A FIRST PRESSING SIDE TWO. VERY FEW OF THESE HYBRIDS WERE RELEASED WHICH MAKES THIS PARTICULAR RECORD RARE AND COLLECTABLE, QUITE APART FROM BEING ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS THE BEATLES MADE.
THE VINYL IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND PLAYS WITHOUT SKIPS, STICKS OR LOUD POPS. VISUALLY THERE ARE A NUMBER OF MARKS AND SCUFFS, BUT NONE CAUSE ANY SIGNIFICANT AUDIO PROBLEMS. THERE IS A CLICK FOR A FEW REVOLUTIONS IN THE MIDDLE OF "NOWHERE MAN" AND SOME LIGHT CRACKLE ON "MICHELLE". THESE FAULTS ARE MINOR, BUT ARE MENTIONED FOR THE PURPOSE OF ACCURATELY DESCRIBING THE RECORD. OVERALL THE AUDIO IS VERY GOOD THROUGHOUT DESPITE THE NUMEROUS MARKS AND SCUFFS TO THE SURFACE.
COVER: VERY GOOD. THE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE FRONT LAMINATED SLEEVE IS STILL BRIGHT AND SHINY. THERE IS A SMALL AREA OF THE TOP RIGHT COVER WHICH HAS LOST SOME LAMINATE, BUT IT IS HARDLY NOTICEABLE. THE SEAMS ARE ALL INTACT WITH VERY LITTLE EDGE WEAR. THE SPINE IS COMPLETELY RIGID AND READABLE. THERE IS A SMALL DINK TO THE OPENING EDGE OF THE FRONT COVER (SEE PHOTOS) BUT OVERALL IT IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE.
THE YELLOW AND BLACK LABELS ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, WITH THE "SOLD IN THE UK" AND "GRAMOPHONE COMPANY" TEXTS, AND KT TAX STAMP ON SIDE ONE.
ALL IN ALL, THIS IS A REALLY PRESENTABLE, COLLECTABLE AND PLAYABLE RARE VERSION OF THIS CLASSIC ALBUM, PRICED REALISTICALLY TO REFLECT THE VISUAL CONDITION OF THE VINYL.
