The Beatles
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Rare first mono US pressing!
WITHOUT the NEMS Enterprises or Maclen Music Ltd. printed on the back!
This is the first label with the incorrect title "A Little Help From My Friends" on Side 1.
Includes the original Red Nuance sleeve and Sgt. Pepper Cut-Outs sheet!
Pressed at the Capitol's west coast plant in L.A.
The mono version of Sgt. Pepper has never been issued as a stand alone CD, only in the limited edition mono box set.
The mixes are completely different and as George Martin originally intended them to be!
Condition
The record is VG+!
Still sounds great and has good luster!
There are some light scuffs and marks that do not affect play.
No noticeable pops, clicks, or skips.
There is some light surface noise in the quiet parts, but it does not detract.
The dynamics and harmonies are still crisp!
The labels still looks wonderful! Only a few very light spindle marks on Side 2.
One of the best looking and sounding mono copies I have seen!
The jacket is VG+!
There is no splitting and the color is strong!
There is a VERY small amount of ring wear at the top of the front and back, nothing terrible.
It also has a sparse amount of edge wear along the bottom.
There is a small, almost unnoticeable, mark that runs along the bottom of the "ATL" of the word "BEATLES", on the front cover.
The inner gatefold still looks amazing with vivid color and no wear!
The record has also been stored outside the jacket to prevent any further wear.
Overall one of the best copies I have ever seen!
The original Red Nuance inner sleeve is VG+
It has a small split on the right side that runs about half an inch long.
The color is still brilliant with the smallest amount of discoloration from age and acid in the paper.
Three of the corners have some wrinkling, but they are not folded.
No ring wear!
The record has been housed in a separate polyurethane lined sleeve to prevent further damage.
The Cut-Out sheet is also VG+
Only a small amount of wear from age.
There is a very small amount of liquid damage to the bottom right, but it's hardly noticeable.
The color is still stunning!
All parts have been kept together in a resealing plastic sleeve.
