DIE BEATLES - 'DIE ZENTRALE TANZSCHAFFE' ('PLEASE, PLEASE ME')

GERMAN AUDIOPHILE PRESSING LP

Regarded by many audiophiles worldwide as the ultimate stereo source for this album, this incredible sounding 'uncompressed' mix was first cut in Germany in the early '70's without the secondary EQ added to the UK cut. This mix is only available on this German second edition pressing with '-2' matrices.

This amazing sounding, barely played copy of that pressing is on the red Hörzu Label: SHZE 117

Housed in its original fully laminated cover.

Matrix nos: SHZE 117-A-2 & SHZE 117-B-2

Disc weight: 147g

CONDITION

Disc

Labels: EXCELLENT +

A vibrant, unworn set with just a small handful of faint spindle marks around each unworn centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT

Both playing surfaces are clean & retain all of thier deep-gloss shines. The only significant blemish I could see in strong daylight is a 5mm light scratch on track 5 on side 2. Close examination directly beneath my unforgiving powerful halogen desk lamp reveals a number of harmless light hairlines but no further significant marks or wear.

Play: EXCELLENT +

This copy has received just a few careful plays on high-end equipment and the the sound is amazing throughout. The only distraction I heard during my single careful play-check at volume were a handful of soft ticks on 'A Taste Of Honey'. Apart from that however, the sound is flawless.

Cover

EXCELLENT +

A clean, glossy and undamaged example which apart from some storagewear to the lower right corner is free of any significant or major faults or wear.

**PLEASE NOTE: This item is located and will be shipped from AUSTRIA. 1st class international postage to UK addresses will be 6.50 GBP**

My grading is strict & conservative grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.

I carefully play every record I sell on an EMT 950 transcription turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
