Description
THE BEATLES - Rubber Soul
Rare 1965 UK first press 14-track mono vinyl LP
On the black & yellow Parlophone label, with 'The Gramophone Co.' & 'Sold In The UK' text.
Housed in the rare Ernest J. Day front laminated flipback picture sleeve variant.
The matrices both end -1, indicating that this is the earliest & hard to find LOUD CUT variant
Sleeve
The front laminated flipback sleeve is has the "Garrod & Lofthouse..." patent pending text on the back to the lower right.
Vinyl
The labels are the legendary black and yellow Parlophone design used on most of the UK Beatles originals until 'The Beatles' (White Album).
The labels have a sticker on side 1 (please see photo's) but apart from this is in great condition with the silver text of the tracklisting being clear and bright, and the yellow of 'Parlophone' is striking.
The matrix numbers in the run out groove are:
XEX 579 - 1
XEX 580 - 1
There is only little light marking around the spindle hole visible on the labels showing it has had just some light play.
The vinyl remains excellent, with only a few light surface scuffs or hairlines detectable, which thanks to the 60s vinyl remain cosmetic.
I can confirm on play testing that it plays crisply and clear
A very nice copy of this classic album in excellent condition

I am slowly listing them one by one and they are in a verity of condition, most are good or very good, with some in shop purchased condition (i.e. Like new), I don’t have time to play every record listed, (well only the ones I want to listen to), therefore I can’t vouch for the playing condition of this item, however if you want to know how it plays please ask and I will play it and let you know if there is any excessive hissing, scratches and what condition the vinyl is in.
I have kept most of these records for 30+ years plus so my goal is to make sure they arrive with you in the same condition that I have kept them, enjoy bidding and please feel free to ask any questions and I will try to answer them
