THE BEATLES
"WITH THE BEATLES" RELEASED 22nd NOVEMBER 1963
PARLOPHONE PMC 1206
STAMPERS 3 MR 1/0 OP MATRICES -IN -1N MT TAX CODE SIDE 1 CENTRE
"PARLOPHONE CO LTD" RIM TEXT WITH "RECORDING 1st PUBLISHED" LABEL TEXT
THIS IS A VERY EARLY PRESSING WITH THE "JOBETE" CREDIT FOR THE TRACK MONEY
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF OTHER CHARACTERISTICS WHICH CONFIRM A VERY FIRST PRESSING
THE 'R' IN 'ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN' ON SIDE 2 APPEARS OVER THE LETTER 'B' UNDERNEATH ALL OTHER LATER PRESSING'S SHOW IT OVER THE NEXT LETTER 'I'
THE TITLE "YOU REALLY GOT A HOLD ON ME" APPEARS ON THE SLEEVE AND THE LABEL AS THE MISPRINT ERROR "YOU REALLY GOTTA HOLD ON ME"
THE CREDIT FOR THE TRACK MONEY "JOBETE" WAS REPLACED VERY QUICKLY WITH "DOMINION BELINDA"
GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE RECORD SLEEVE FRONT IS IN CLEAN LEGIBLE CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT CREASE'S AROUND THE EDGE'S AND A HINT OF FOXING DOWN THE OPENING EDGE BUT WITH AN UNCRUSHED SPINE EDGE
THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE IS ALL LEGIBLE BUT DOES HAVE HEAVIER FOXING ALL ACROSS THE INNER PANEL WITH AGE SPOTS AND SOME TINY NUMBERS IN THE LOWER WHITE AREA
EMITEX INNER IS AGAIN NICE AND CLEAN AND ALSO SHOWS JUST A LITTLE LIGHT FOXING AND CORNER CREASE'S
VINYL RECORD HAS A DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN TO THE SURFACES BUT DOES HAVE SOME HANDLING MARKS ,
SIDE 1 HAS VISIBLE ( BUT NOT FEELABLE) HANDLING / NEEDLE MARKS MORE PRONOUNCED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT ALONG WITH LIGHT SLEEVE RETENTION MARKS AGAIN ONLY VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT A TEST PLAY OF SIDE 1 PRODUCED A QUIET RUN IN AND AUDIO WAS GREAT TO LISTEN TO WITH THE ODD LIGHT POP IN THE QUIET MOMENTS
SIDE 2 AGAIN HAS SIMILAR SLIGHTLY MORE VISIBLE HANDLING / NEEDLE MARKS MORE VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT BUT DON'T APPEAR FEELABLE TO ME AGAIN RECORD PLAYS THROUGH WITH JUST THE ODD LIGHT POP
THE LABELS ARE BOTH LEGIBLE WITH A LITTLE WEAR AT THE CENTREHOLE AND SIDE 2 HAS A NEEDLE MARK ON IT
I WAS GENUINELY SURPRISED AT HOW WELL THE RECORD PLAYED BUT THESE EARLY COPIES ALONG WITH 'PLEASE PLEASE ME' ALSO ON THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL DO SEEM TO HAVE SURVIVED THE RIGOURS OF TEENAGE HANDLING QUITE WELL
WE DO PLAY TEST FOR REVIEW ON A SIXTIES HI-FI SYSTEM SO WE CAN ONLY COMMENT ON WHAT WE HEAR DIFFERENT SYSTEMS CAN GIVE A DIFFERENT RESPONE PLEASE BEAR THAT IN MIND
WE ARE LISTING IT BECAUSE ITS RARE AND COLLECTABLE AND HAVE DONE OUR BEST TO OUTLINE THE ISSUES WE CAME ACROSS ,WITH THIS IN MIND WE WILL USE A LOW START PRICE
PLEASE ALSO REMEBER THIS RECORDING IS NOW SIXTY YEARS OLD AND WAS PRESSED IN A VERY DIFFERENT ERA TO TODAY
