Description
This is the original first pressing (XEX 606-1) BEATLES MONO UK LP "REVOLVER" published in 1966 with the yellow and black label.
This first pressing famously contains the long (original) version of "Tomorrow Never Knows" and is not available on any other recorded media.
ALSO VERY RARE DECCA CONTRACT PRESSING. Such was the demand for this album the Parlophone presses couldn't keep up with demand and a small number were pressed at DECCA (these were usually second pressings) - Decca presses had hubs that pressed a ridge round the outer edge of the label - see photos.
