AS NO DOUBT ANY ONE WHO WISHES TO OWN AN ORIGINAL STEREO COPY KNOWS ALL THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A REAL ONE AND A BOOTLEG, SO HERE ARE THE FACTS ABOUT THIS OFFERED ALBUM AND WHY IT IS REAL

FIRST THE HONEY TEST

THE HONEY TEST REQUIRES THE INSPECTION OF THE BACK COVER, THE

MOST NOTICEABLE FLAW APPEARS THE WORD HONEY IN "A TASTE OF 

HONEY" ARE THE LETTERS H AND THE E MISSING INK IN THE UPPER 

LEFT PARTS - IF THIS IS SO- THIS IS A FAKE

  PLEASE CHECK THE PHOTOS, 

THIS ONE PASSES THE TEST WITH FLYING COLORS!

• THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A COUNTERFEIT WITH THE WORD "STEREO" PRINTED ON THE LABEL - THIS ONE HAS STEREO ON BOTH SIDES
• LETTERS MR INSIDE OF A CIRCLE STAMPED IN DEAD WAX BOTH SIDES (MONARCH PRESSING)
  • HAS HAND ETCHED INITIALS "URJ" ON BOTH SIDES AND MATRIX NUMBER S 63-3402-S AND JOB NUMBER 6313 SIDE 1 AND MATRIX NUMBER S 63 - 3403-S AND JOB NUMBER 6313X ON SIDE 2
• • • ALL ORIGINAL COVERS HAVE A 1/4" OVERLAP OF CARDBOARD AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE INSIDE COVER - THIS COPY PASSES THIS TEST, ALSO THERE ARE NO COLORED DOTS USED BY COUNTERFEIT PRINTERS
    • • THE FRONT AND BACK COVER, PRINTED BY IVY HILL LITHOGRAPH HAS THE GLOSS FRONT AND BACK OF A REAL COPY AND THE DISTINCT GEORGE HARRISON SHADOW
      • • IF THE WIDTH OF OF THE VINYL TRAIL OFF IS GREATER THAN 1 INCH IT IS A FAKE - THIS COPY PASSES THAT TEST
        • • THE LABEL IS GLOSSY AND SHARP WITH RAINBOW BAND

THE VINYL IS IN AMAZING SHAPE, UNDER BRIGHT LIGHTS THERE ARE A VERY FEW VERY FINE THIN HAIR LINES, ONLY IMPERFECTION IS A SMUDGE ON TRACK 2 SIDE 1 THAT DOES NOT EFFECT PLAY - THIS IS VERY HEAVY VINYL WITH THE VEE JAY SOFT EDGE AND VERY SHINY. CONSIDERING THIS LP WAS USUALLY PLAYED TO DEATH AT PARTIES ETC, IT IS AMAZING TO FIND ONE THAT IS IN SUCH GOOD SHAPE.

AFTER SAMPLE PLAYING, THE DYNAMICS ARE SUPERB AND I NOTICED VERY LITTLE SURFACE NOISE. ANYONE WHO HAS PLAYED A VEEJAY BEATLES RECORD KNOWS THE FAULTS OF THE ORIGINAL PRESSING AND THIS ONE STILL SOUNDS AMAZING!

NO, THIS IS NOT MINT, BUT I WOULD EXPECT THE LUCKY WINNER OF THIS AUCTION, WILL KEEP THIS RECORD IN A VAULT SO IT WILL INCREASE IN VALUE AND BECOME A SUPERB INVESTMENT

THE JACKET IS A GOOD VG++, NO SPLITS, NO WRITING, A LITTLE BUMPING ON THE CORNERS AND EDGES AND SOME SMALL TEAR DAMAGE ON BACK - BUT NOTHING TO REALLY COMPLAIN ABOUT!!

How I Grade Condition Of Discs

Mint

This means I have owned it from new or purchased from a distributors warehouse, basically it means absolutely new shape, never been played or out of its dust cover. In the case of LP's, a North American album will have to be factory sealed (anyone can reseal an album!) Take Note: European and Japaneses albums were never shrink wrapped!

Note: Being mint does not guarantee it's free of pops and clicks, many pressings especially from the US were made with very poor vinyl and in a hurry which means often there are imperfections in the pressing. As a former importer, we were often given back brand new albums due to clicks heard in the playback.

Mint Minus - No such thing, it's either mint or not.

Excellent - A disc is super clean, with no visible marks

 Excellent Plus, means it's probably mint but can't be proven by me.

Excellent minus, is a disc that is excellent except it may have some markings that do not show up in the playing

VG - A disc that is STILL in good shape, WILL have some scuffs or scratches, not in excellent shape but well worth owning. VG + and ++,a disc that is that much better than VG.

VG minus, just a smidgen below VG

Good - A disc that can be played, has obvious ware but is worth owning, a DJ copy of a rare early Motown for instance or a rare Doo-Wop or Northern Soul which could still be worth a fortune, Good Minus & Good Plus is a step above or below Good. In most cases I will not offer a disc in this condition unless it's rare and hard to find.

LABELS

Labels do not alter the grading of vinyl; many records are Excellent, looked after by the previous owner but still have their initials or markings on the label. A DJ copy will often have markings to show which side to be plugged, or the length of the intro. Many labels and covers in the US have been punched, that was done by the record company to show the disc was deleted and shipped out to mass retailers to sell cheap and could not be returned for a credit, this does not impede the value, many records eg Swan and VJ Beatles were done like that, also many promo lp’s were punched or slit to show they were provided as promotion and not charged to the client and no royalties paid to the artist
