THE BEATLES - HEY JUDE
1969 UK 2nd *EXPORT* PRESSING LP
Arguably the best source for all titles on this album, this NEAR MINT 1969 UK EXPORT pressing is on the dark green Apple label: CPCS 106
The side 1 label on this rare variant misspells the track 'Revolution' as 'Revolutions'
Housed in a fully laminated 'Garrod & Lofthouse' printed cover with wording on the spine only.
The cover is still encased within its original store shrinkwrapping with its original U.S. $2.50 price sticker in the front upper right corner.
Complete with its plain white 'Patent nos.' inner-sleeve.
Matrix numbers: YEEX 150-1 & YEEX 151-1
Stamper codes: 2/GO & 1/GD
Disc weight: 144g
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: 1. NEAR MINT 2. EXCELLENT
A pristine side 1 label with just a few tiny spindle trails. Label 2 is just as fine but has some initials written on it.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Immaculate, bright & deep-gloss surfaces which are completely unmarked in strong daylight. Close inspection directly beneath my halogen desk lamp reveals just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines but no other blemishes whatsoever. Both sides lie 100% flat with no signs of dishing or warping.
Play: NEAR MINT
This terrific sounding record lives up to its billing as being the best stereo source for all titles included here. All play perfectly cleanly & clearly with no groove/playwear or any other audible distraction. In fact apart form a touch of light background between tracks, there really is little to fault here. You will not be disappointed - the true stereo version of 'Rain' is worth the price of entry alone.
Cover
NEAR MINT
The orignal shrinkwrapping has protected this easily worn cover in every respect and apart from soem slight storagewear rubbing to the shrinkwrapping itself, little has changed since it left the shops 40 years ago.
Inner-sleeve
EXCELLENT
Clean & flat with just the inevitable light disc impression but no writing, tears or splits.
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on a $5,000 Rega P9 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
- Please take a look at my About Me page for more details.
