Description

The Beatles
Rubber Soul
VG+
HEAVY 164g
(With the more unusual TUBE-CUT matrix endings: -5/-5)

All complete with the original EMITEX inner


This Lp was released on the 3rd of December 1965 and stayed at the number 1 position for a total of 9 weeks from Christmas that year....What a pressie to unwrap!

Catalogue number: PMC 1267

Matrix Numbers Side 1: XEX 579-5
Matrix Numbers Side 2: XEX 580-5
NOT VERY OFTEN DO YOU FIND BOTH SIDES OF THIS RECORD ENDING WITH -5. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A 'TUBE-CUT' RECORDING...


Mothers/Stampers Side 1: PG @ 3 O'clock  2 @ 9 O'clock
Mothers/Stampers Side 2: MO @ 3 O'clock   3 @ 9 O'clock
(Lovely early pressing of this increasingly rarer -5 matrix cut)


Vinyl:
164g HEAVYWEIGHT QUALITY
VG(+)

 Lovely shine and weight. There are light marks to the vinyl but they didn't make much difference at all to the audio playback. After giving her a gentle vacuum clean, followed by an ultrasonic bath, I have just played her all the way through-up loud-and was incredibly happy with the solid wall of sound which came from this slab of vinyl.
All I noticed were a couple of very light and soft pops, but only a very few of these even.
NO JUMPS OR STICKS
GORGEOUSLY RICH, DEEP & CLEAR SOUND
FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN
A really nice copy of this increasingly rarer -5/-5 'tube-cut' version.


Labels:
VG+

There are just a small handful of traces of very light spindle marks, only really visible when angled towards the light, with minimal wear to the central holes.
NO WRITING.
VERY DISPLAYABLE.
"The Gramophone Co..." rim text as well as "Sold In U.K." text.


Cover:
VG+

 Patents Pending. Shiny front cover...Just a few small crescents of spidering near the opening as well as a few small fingers of spidering emanating from the edges...that is all!!
VERY SOLID-WORTHY OF FRAMING
 The corners are gently rubbed.
The spine remaining perfectly intact, strong and legible.
NO SPLITS
*NO WRITING ANYWHERE*

 Strong Garrod & Lofthouse flipbacks.
