Fantastic 1969 Beatles UK LP. This was the Beatles' 12th LP, released on the 26th September. It was also the last official Beatles release that was recorded by them. Staying at number one for almost 18 consecutive weeks, it was only knocked off by The Rolling Stones' "Let It Bleed."

*NICE EARLY PRESSING HERE*
Vinyl:
147g-QUALITY VINYL
EX-!
Lovely vinyl, only a few very light marks to her, which are superficial and barely heard on playback....When playing her all the way through, I noticed a wonderful deep and rich audio reproduction free from sticks and any skips too...My arm was on an incredibly light setting too-please see (and hear) the detailed video for yourselves.
Even the run-ins were lovely and quiet-as can be heard in the clip provided. The only soft, light and very occasional background pops….The audio remained rich and deep throughout with a beautiful escalating bass line as well as crisp highs too :)
JUST HAD THE UTTER JOY OF LISTENING TO HER
SUPERB
The Moog was lovely and clear on Maxwells Silver Hammer-INCREDIBLE!
*FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN*
Labels:
EX+!
There are only a small handful of very light spindle marks-evident ONLY when angling towards the light.
With barely any central hole wear.
NO WRITING
NO "Sold in the UK..." text.
Outer text begins: "Apple Records all rights.."
"Mfd. in U.K." text. The labels are nice and vibrant.
This is the 1st pressing DARKER version of this Apple label.
The last song credit DOES NOT HAVE "Her Majesty" on the Side 2 label.
*VERY FRAMEABLE*
The 33 1/3 is aligned to the extreme right at 9 o’clock-showing this to be a very 1st pressing.
Cover:
EX-.
The cover of this LP is GREAT.
The alignment of the Apple Logo on the back is inline with the text. The spine is lovely, clear and strong...Slight rubbing to the center and title, but nothing which has broken through
Just 3 small and insignificant lines of spidering to the front/back laminate, with smaller fingers of spidering emanating from the seams..
NO WRITING
NO RIPS
NO SPLITS
Only some light rubbing/knocking to the corners.
DEEP CLEAN AND CLEAR COLOURS.
Please see the detailed images for yourselves and click on them for even larger images and more detail.
FRAME THIS BEAUTY!
Inner:
VG.
Original, early ‘PATENTS APPLIED FOR’ white die-cut sleeve.
Also has the "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" text to the bottom too.
Small split to the bottom sides is all.
Only light creasing and some spots of ageing-don't we all?!
THIS IS A LOVELY COLLECTABLE PIECE IN GREAT COLLECTABLE CONDITION.
GRAB THIS BEAUTY FOR ITS LOOKS AND SUPERB AUDIO REPRODUCTION!
