Condition:
Vinyl visual : Side 1 - quite a lot of dusty light makrs and light scratches. None of which i can feel however Currently rated as VERY GOOD-. Looks like it s been well-played but looked after and these vintage LPs hold up superbly well. Label is EXCELLENT-.
Side 2 - same as Side 1 with one very small, lightly feelable mark to the start of track 3. Doesn t cause any issues whatsoever on my system
I recommend a deep clean
Audio: I have play-tested this record from start to finish. I can confirm that there are NO SKIPS, NO JUMPS and NO STICKS on my system It currently rates as VERY GOOD. There is some crackle on the run-in. It continues throughout the rest of the album with some pops but it is not overbearing and it is never intrusive. All the instruments and vocals and sound effects can be heard clearly. A deep clean is highly recommended but I do not have the facilities to do so. The audio itself is very punchy and has a rich bass tone The bass on Hey Bulldog is phenomenal, never heard the bass so rich on Yellow Submarine before Amazing 60s mono punch and warmth that plays really well
Inner Sleeve: The original 1969 black die-cut inner sleeve is currently in VERY GOOD/VERY GOOD condition. NO SPLITS, NO RIPS and NO TEARS It has a sticker in the top right and also some dark black writing to the left - it says 40 so nothing too obvious. A few small creases but it s looking great
Sleeve: The original Red Lines 1969 mono flipback sleeve is in VERY GOOD condition, if not better The front of the sleeve is intact and clean with a nice gloss and shine It does have some very light ringwear, light discolouration, some scratches and some marks towards the edges. It also has some small light laminate creasing in places but I ve counted no more than 3. ALL EDGES ARE INTACT Lovely edges with minimal wear, if any The rear of the sleeve is clean but does have some writing in the top left - No 40. The flipbacks are intact and held down tightly with minimal creasing and light discolouration. There is also a few spots where there is some light creasing and rubbing towards the opening edge. Looks great though The spine is EXCELLENT and 100 readable with minimal creasing and some light discolouration. Overall, a great original mono first press sleeve that is difficult to find intact
PLEASE SEE ALL PICTURES
As with all the vintage records I sell, I advise a deep clean to enhance the sound quality of the record. Overall, a RARE Beatles mono record that everyone wished they owned
