Description

An original 1st press of Abbey Road on the UK Apple label. Matrix 2/1. Please note the labels make NO mention of 'Her Majesty' as found on all later copies. The heavy set vinyl comes housed in an original Garrod & Lofthouse printed cover. Please note the Apple logo on the rear is not aligned with the text. It is thought that the first copies were issued in this version of the cover. There is also a black REPRODUCTION inner sleeve included too.
Vinyl (Ex+) In truly marvellous condition and certainly one of the nicest I've ever seen. Under close inspection we could only make out a couple of light marks - but nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an EXCELLENT+ level of playback. Intros and inbetweens are silent and the audio comes across with perfect clarity. I shouldn't need to remind anyone that a 1st press of Abbey Road this well preserved sounds out of this world. Top-level resolution and amazing transparency - a level unobtainable by any other pressing. Even the quieter tracks on side 2 play clean and i mean CLEAN! Interference is practically non-existent. We couldn't detect more than a couple of crackles in a couple of places [literally] the whole way through. A truly superb copy....
Cover (Ex/Ex+) In fantastic condition particularly given that it is the misaligned apple version. Front and back are shiny like new and with only a couple of small creases evident. Only the lightest handling signs - and you have to look closely to even see them! Edge wear is practically non-existent and the spine is 100% intact. Overall the cover retains perfect rigidity and lies very nice and flat. Very very nice...
Inner (Ex) Aok. No splits or creasing.


Any purchase is guaranteed to get to you quickly, safely, and with total satisfaction, or your money back.
