     ORIG 1967 BRITISH PARLOHONE     DOUBLE EP COLLECTIBLE                                                         

                                    

                  THE BEATLES

       MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR

                                 

            

\                                                      UK - PARLOPHONE - MMT-B1 

1967 BRITISH Original pressing for MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR ...completely different from the USA issue containing only the original BEATLES material that was written for the film. The 8 track two-EP set is lavishly laminated front & back with the old style 'flipback' seams and conains intact the thick booklet inset into the gatefold.

This LP is a definite peak of the BEATLES psychedelic experimental phase. The title track, "I Am the Walrus", "Flying", "Blue Jay Way" are all masterpieces of British psychedelia containing all kinds of studio experiments, sitars, effects, and strings arrangements and samplings that were one of a kind and extremely innovative in 1967. Additionally, "Fool On The Hill" is amongst the most beautiful melodic ballads penned by McCartney. Otherwise, this double EP set is excellent and was never released the USA as such.

The key BEATLES psychedelic work is here present, so enough said.
