PLEASE NOTE! I AM BASED IN ENGLAND! PLEASE LOOK AT MY OTHER RARE 1ST UK BEATLES PRESSINGS LISTED NOW ON EBAY.

This pressing is extreemly rare and sought after not only because of its superbe condition but it has the earliest matrix stamped and is the corrected version with ''her majesty'' on the labels!!!This has -1 -2 soon superceded,  the matrix was changed to -2 -3 known as 2nd pressings which have much flimsier type of vinyl.! This has been in my personal collection for more than 25 years and has always been stored in a case with the viny seperated from the sleeve and cover! This is how I have always stored my records!!!!!!

PLEASE NOTE! THIS PRESSINGS AUDIO IS THE VERY REASON WHY I HAVE COLLECTED SO MANY UK BEATLES ALBUMS OVER THE PAST 35 YEARS OR MORE! IN MY OPINION THE MIX AND SOUND IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! EVERY NOW AND THEN YOU COME ACROSS A VERY SPECIAL COPY, THIS IS IT! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN FACINATED THAT WHEN I PLAY THESE EARLY PRESSINGS THAT I HEAR DIFFERENT SOUNDS, INSTRUMENTS AND SOME PRODUCE A REAL RICH AND BASSEY FEEL! THIS AUDIO PLAYED AT LOUD VOLUME ON A TOP SYSTEM IN MY PERSONAL OPINION IS TOP!! VERY VERY RARE TO FIND INDEED!!

Abbey Road is the eleventh official album released by The Beatles. Although its release preceded that of Let It Be, it was the last album to be recorded, and is therefore widely considered as the band's swan song. It was released on September26 1969 in the UK and October 1, 1969 in the US. It was produced and orchestrated by George Martin for Apple Records. Geoff Emerick was the engineer and Tony Banks, tape operator. It is considered one of the Beatles' most tightly constructed albums, although John Lennon dismissed the album in later years, possibly because its focal point — "The Long Medley" — was designed almost entirely by Paul McCartney!!.
