Description
Up for sale is a stunning, highly collectible UK original mono first pressing of The Beatles' masterpiece Rubber Soul on the black and yellow Parlophone label.
This specific copy features the legendary, withdrawn "LOUD CUT" -1 matrix on Side 1 (XEX 579-1). Cut at a higher volume by EMI engineers before being pulled after only a few days of production, this variant is heavily sought after by audiophiles for its raw, incredibly punchy sound and deep bass.
Item Specifics:
Artist: The Beatles
Title: Rubber Soul
Format: Vinyl LP (Mono)
Catalog Number: PMC 1267
Year: 1965
Country of Manufacture: Great Britain (UK)
Matrix / Runout (Side 1): XEX 579-1 (True Loud Cut Master)
Condition Grading:
Vinyl (Media Condition): VG+ (Very Good Plus)
The vinyl is in beautiful shape, retaining its brilliant original high-gloss shine. Under bright light, it shows only a few minor, cosmetic paper scuffs and light hairlines. It has been play-tested and plays through cleanly and beautifully from start to finish with no skips, jumps, or loud pops. Expect only minimal, faint background whisper in the dead wax, allowing the legendary power of this loud mix to shine.
Sleeve (Cover Condition): VG+ (Very Good Plus)
The original front-laminated Garrod & Lofthouse flipback jacket is remarkably well-preserved. As seen in the photos, the front lamination is bright, crisp, and highly reflective with only very minor, light creasing near the spine. The corners are nice and square, the edges show minimal shelf wear, and the spine text is fully legible. The rear cover is exceptionally clean with light age-toning but no heavy staining, writing, or seam splits.
Please review the high-resolution photos closely to verify the beautiful condition and the matrix stamps. Feel free to send a message if you have any questions!
