This ESSENTIAL 45 pressed in 1964 when Beatlemania was AT IT'S HEIGHT BUT MOST FANS HAD THIS 45 OR AT LEAST ON THE LP"PLEASE PLEASE ME"RESULTING IN FEWER COPIES SOLD IN THE 7"45 FORMAT!  

THIS COPY HAS MANY SURFACE MARKS,MOST OF WHICH ARE LIGHT WITH SOME SMEARING DUE TO SOME DUBIOUS CLEANING.

A SMALL DENT IN THE VINYL SOUNDS FOR THE FIRST 20 SECONDS OF EACH SIDE, A FEW LIGHT CLICKS AND A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE BUT THAT IS BEING STRICT!

DESPITE THE DENT DAMAGE AND THE MINOR CRACKLE THERE IS NO DISTORTION OR LOUD CLICKS, NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO SWISHES!OBVIOUSLY A COPY THAT HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS BUT HAS SIMPLY NOT BEEN WELL CARED FOR PHYSICALLY RATHER THAN ACTUAL REPEATED PLAYS.  

Originally it only got to #17 on the NATIONAL CHART unlike later singles.

IT IS  A VERY RARE 45 with THIS LABEL VARIATION!

I have kept hold of several great copies over the years but the time has come to thin down the collection!

The Mono mixes are brilliant and full of bass. AND OF COURSE EVEN ON THE FIRST LP,RINGO'S VERSION WAS REPLACED WITH SESSION DRUMMER , ANDY WHITE'S VERSION WITH RINGO ON TAMBOURINE!!!!!  

In 1964,most 45 buyers were usually using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff and wear out the discs forever in seconds.

THIS IS NOT THE GREATEST COPY YOU WILL FIND BUT PLAYS NICE! 

 Vinyl is still the best way to hear THE BEATLES and always will be!  

GREAT SOLID SOUND!

GREAT INVESTMENT FROM ONE OF THE WORLD'S LEADING BEATLES EXPERTS! 

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TWICE TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

There is HARDLY ANY spindle wear.

The surface marks are mostly VISUAL with THE MAJORITY NOT SOUNDING!

JUST THAT DENT NEAR THE START CAUSES A BUMP SOUND SOUNDING THE LOUDEST THREE TIMES. 

There is some surface crackle AT HIGH VOLUME, but it is MINIMAL-A tribute to the EMI quality AND THE PREVIOUS OWNERS CAREFULNESS.

NO DEEP MARKS!  

THE LABELS HAVE NO WRITING! 

THE PRINT IS STILL CLEAR TO READ.

THE COVER IS IN FABULOUS ORDER:NO STAINING/WEAR/ NO WRITING/NO FAULTS(EXCEPT A TINY SURFACE TEAR FROM A STICKER REMOVAL AT ONE CORNER),NO NASTY SELLOTAPE REPAIRS,NO STAPLES,NO HOLE CUTS ETC.  

Look elsewhere on ebay and you will see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults. 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN A VERY STRONG G++++CONDITION.

ACTUAL PLAYING APART FROM THE "DENT BUMP"IS NEARER TO VG!!! FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "VG"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.

AN OUTER SOFT PVC COVER WILL BE SUPPLIED AS WITH ALL MY SINGLES AND EPs SOLD.   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS! 

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
