Tax Code MT (a rare variation!)

This is the  original issue known as the “Loud Cut” 

First “Loud Cut” pressing. December 3, 1965. “Loud Cut” matrces: XEX 579-1 & XEX 580-1. When “Rubber Soul” was initially mixed it was slightly different to how we hear it today. These early mixes only ever appeared in mono and are distinguished by the matrix numbers XEX 579-1 / XEX 580-1 in the deadwax. It’s argued that these early presses were unbalanced with a muddy bass and with an edgy, aggressive vocal sound. Since these copies seemed to lack body the decision was made to halt production whilst the mother plates were re-cut. 

The record has several superficial marks to the playing surfaces. It has been test played all the way through on a good quality system. There are no skips, sticks or jumps. Light crackle can be heard occasionally- this is mostly between tracks. The music can certainly be enjoyed to the full. 
The record is graded VG(+). Audio is VG+ 
The cover is solid. Slightly grubby - see photos. VG+
It has the original Emitex inner sleeve. 

I am happy for cash on collection or you can visit and inspect the record prior to commitment if you wish. I have lots of other rock and pop LPs for sale! 


Local delivery considered.
