Description
I am a long time collector of Beatles vinyl and have decided to sell some of my personal collection. The Beatles vinyl I have currently listed on Ebay is mostly original UK EPs with a few US pressings also listed. Over the years I have collected Beatles vinyl, I have retained only those items for my personal collection that have high quality vinyl that plays near mint to mint; i.e., no ticks, pops, or surface noise. If you are a Beatles collector that enjoys the sonic qualities of listening to as-new vinyl, I think you will find something you like. I have graded all listed vinyl using strict grading standards of the UK vinyl price guide Record Collector and the former US publication Discoveries. All of the vinyl I have listed on Ebay is sold with guaranteed satisfaction. Thanks for your interest.
This item is the UK EP Twist and Shout. This is an original 1st pressing from 1963 as evidenced by The Parlophone Co. rim print. It was released in July, 1963 and is Parlophone GEP 8882. This EP has a higher number than The Beatles Hits; however, it actually was the 1st Beatles EP released as The Beatles Hits EP was released in September, 1963. The vinyl is EX+ with only one very light line on Side 1 and a few light lines on the run in on Side 2. These are very light surface lines, hard to see, and have no effect on the sonic quality of the vinyl. The vinyl shows a high gloss, mirror-like surface on the tracks and on the dead wax on the run-ins and run-outs. This is an early pressing with both sides taken from the 1st mother. The stamper on Side 1 is RR and on Side 2 RD.
The sleeve is VG+ due to slight push marks from the record being stored in the sleeve and the number 18 written on the reverse side. There is no loss of color on the front of the sleeve but the beginning of storage wear can be seen on the reverse. There are no seam splits, no creases, no tears, the jacket is totally flat, and the corners are square and sharp. Check out the scans. They can be enlarged and tell the story on condition.
Shipping is $4 USPS 1st Class Mail within the US plus the cost of insurance if so desired. Payment is required from US buyers by money order or personal check. I will ship anywhere in the world; however, non-US buyers must remit payment in US Dollars via an international money order, BidPay money order, or Western Union. Shipping costs outside the US depend on the location and shipping method.
