Description
The Beatles
A Hard Day's Night
'Patents Pending'
A solid VG+
This Lp was released on the 10th July 1964. The 45rpm was released in April and at that time the Beatles' film had yet to get a title and as the story goes, Ringo emerged from a long days work saying "It's been a hard day," then seeing it was already dark added " 's night." This was then announced to the press as the title on the 17th of April. Ringo may have seen this phrase before in Lennons book "Sad Michael."
Holding a number 1 postition for a huge 21 weeks, from July the 25th!!!
This is also the ONLY Beatles album to have every track written by Lennon/McCartney.

LOVELY EARLY PRESSING HERE
Vinyl:
QUALITY 136g
VG++! Lovely heavy vinyl with a gorgeous sheen.
I see some light marks, but found the sound reproduction to be little affected by these!
I have just listened to the whole album and didn't find any less enjoyment in playback, occasional background noise in the quieter sections-The run ins and outs are lovely and quiet..
Just a gentle clean will improve her further.
Very nice indeed.
Flat Flat, FLAT!
Shiny too
HEAVY
Labels: EX! Lovely and clear. Just a handful of light spindle marks, just visible when angled towards bright light, with next to zero central hole wear...Please see the detailed pictures.
Outer text "The Parlophone Co. LTD" (ONLY 1st Press have this) it DOES have the "Sold in the uk.." text.
Raised "KT" tax code to side 2.
WOULD FRAME WELL
Cover: VG+. Solid, mid-sized mono in top right corner. Shiny front cover...She does carry a few small crescents of spidering to the front laminted cover, as well as some small fingers of spidering eminating from the seams and spine.
SOLID!!
Still has a white card backing...There is just some discolouration/light dirt near the opening-as can be seen in the images provided as well as a small name.
STRONG & SOLID CORNERS
The Garrod and Lofthouse flipbacks are in wonderfully strong condition.
STRONG, UNCRUSHED & LEGIBLE spine.
NO rips or tears!!
Has "Patents Pending" to back bottom right corner flipback.
Inner: VG-. It is a replacement 2 windowed white inner-but carries a split to the bottom...However she has certainly done her job in looking after the lovely slab of vinyl!
A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF AN EXCELLENT RECORD
SUPERB AUDIO AND SOLID COVER
