A 1st of the 1st pressings of Oldies But Goldies from Xmas 1966 on the UK Parlophone. Matrix 1G/1G. Stampers 1M/1M. This is the very first label variation available at Xmas 1966 - Times New Roman font and the publishing dates grouped at the left side of the label. These are true mono cuts of the Beatles hits direct from early masters - and are amazingly well preserved. With 1M/1M stampers we can be confident in saying that this LP is from the first ever 2,000 copies pressed.
Vinyl (Ex+/NM) This is one of those slabs of vinyl you can only sit back and marvel at..It looks brand new - as though it's just dropped off of the press. The surfaces are mirror like and it has clearly only seen very very light use. Under close inspection we struggled to make out a single mark. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a NEARMINT level of playback. Intros and inbetweens are silent and the audio comes across with perfect clarity and barely any interference at all. Even 'Yesterday', a notoriously fussy track plays with only a couple of crackles [literally]. The audio throughout has breathtaking clarity and precision. These original tracks taken direct from the mono masters really are a treat to behold. This is probably the final upgrade for someone looking for ultimate audio.....
Cover (Ex-) In great shape and has clearly been carefully looked after. the only vaguely noticeable deterioration is a couple of age spots on the rear and a touch of wear [one inch] at the top edge. But other than that it is in very very decent condition in deed. A lovely shiny front with no creasing or scuffs. Edge wear is minimal and the spine is 100% intact. Overall the cover still retains excellent rigidity. A superb example.
Any purchase is guaranteed to get to you quickly, safely, and with total satisfaction, or your money back.
