Description

A chance to get a rare UK first pressing of 'Yellow Submarine' in MONO format.

Please note that all photos are my own unretouched originals (mostly scans), not stock shots. 

Tracks:

Side One: 
  

Yellow Submarine; Only A Northern Song; All Together Now; Hey Bulldog; It's All Too Much; All You Need Is Love.

All tracks are credited to Lennon and McCartney, except Only A Northern Song and It's All Too Much (George Harrison)

Side Two:  Original film score

Pepperland; Sea of Time; Sea of Holes; Sea of Monsters; March of The Meanies; Pepperland Laid Waste; Yellow Submarine in Pepperland.

All tracks composed and orchestrated by George Martin, except Yellow Submarine in Pepperland (Lennon-McCartney, arr. Martin)

Condition:

Disc:  Both sides are in Very Good* condition.  There are visible light surface scratches, particularly on Side One (see photo), but no jumps and no deterioration in sound quality audible on my equipment, except some minor crackles in isolated quieter sections and run-offs.

Labels:  Excellent condition.  Original dark green Apple labels with 'Sold in the U.K...' notice - see photos.

Sleeve:  The flipback sleeve is in Good condition, with little wear and tear on the front laminated surface, and no functional defects (splits or tears).  There is the usual wear on the opening edge.  The rear has the early red stripes above and below the sleeve notes. On the rear, there are two areas of about a square inch (5 sq cm) each where the top surface has been marked by adhesive, and a small name in ballpoint in the top right-hand corner.  These are visible on the image.  They do not affect any of the graphics or text, except the 'Ava' of 'Available in Stereo'. (This is a mono copy, of course.)
 
Inner sleeve:  The disc still has its original black inner sleeve, which is in Good condition, with only a half-inch (1 cm) split in one edge.  There is a label in one corner with the disc title and a name - again, see the images. I will include this sleeve, but pack the disc itself in a new white polylined sleeve for dispatch.

Disc details:

EMI Catalogue: Apple PMC 7070 (mono)

Matrix numbers: XEX 715-1; XEX 716-1

Mother numbers (both sides): 1

Stamper codes (both sides): T
