THE BEATLES
ALPHA OMEGA BOX SET VOL 1
AMERICAN BROADCASTING TV PRODUCTS ARTBH
UNOFFICIAL RELEASE
4 LP SET
In January 1973, two pirated Beatles box sets appeared in the United States, Alpha Omega Volumes I & II: The Story Of The Beatles (Audio Tape Inc. ATRBH 3583). These four-LP collections were advertised on TV and radio stations in the Midwest and were sold by mail order.
The tracks were arranged more or less in alphabetical order (some may have been shuffled around due to time concerns), and edited haphazardly; Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band fades out just before the "Billy Shears" introduction on With A Little Help From My Friends, which appeared on a separate disc.
The recordings were all sourced from American Capitol LPs featuring the Dave Dexter, Jr. edits found exclusively on those albums - compression, bass reduction, and additional reverb. -
CURIOUSLY ENOUGH, IT ALSO CONTAINS McCARTNEY TRACKS AND LENNON AND HARRISON SOLO TRACKS!
THIS IS BECOMING A MEGA RARE SET, THESE 4 LP'S SHOW SOME HAIR LINING IN SOME SPOTS AND SMUDGING OF VINYL IN OTHERS - THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE EXTREMELY TIGHT - VINYL IS GRADED AS VG++ - THERE ARE NO FELT SCRATCHES - SHARP EDGES VERY SHINY ALL ORIGINAL VINYL
VERY COLLECTIBLE SET THAT A BEATLES COLLECTOR SHOULD OWN

How I Grade Condition Of Discs
Mint
This means I have owned it from new or purchased from a distributors warehouse, basically it means absolutely new shape, never been played or out of its dust cover. In the case of LP's, a North American album will have to be factory sealed (anyone can reseal an album!) Take Note: European and Japaneses albums were never shrink wrapped!
Note: Being mint does not guarantee it's free of pops and clicks, many pressings especially from the US were made with very poor vinyl and in a hurry which means often there are imperfections in the pressing. As a former importer, we were often given back brand new albums due to clicks heard in the playback.
Mint Minus -A disc that is no longer in shrink wrap but shows little to no signs of being played, probably mint but can't be proven
Excellent - A disc is super clean, with no visible marks
Excellent Plus - A super clean disc that has been very rarely played and that much better than Excellent
Excellent minus, is a disc that is excellent except it may have some markings that do not show up in the playing
VG - A disc that is STILL in good shape, WILL have some scuffs or scratches, not in excellent shape but well worth owning. VG + and ++,a disc that is that much better than VG.
VG minus, just a smidgen below VG
Good - A disc that can be played, has obvious ware but is worth owning, a DJ copy of a rare early Motown for instance or a rare Doo-Wop or Northern Soul which could still be worth a fortune, Good Minus & Good Plus is a step above or below Good. In most cases I will not offer a disc in this condition unless it's rare and hard to find.
LABELS
Labels do not alter the grading of vinyl; many records are Excellent, looked after by the previous owner but still have their initials or markings on the label. A DJ copy will often have markings to show which side to be plugged, or the length of the intro. Many labels and covers in the US have been punched, that was done by the record company to show the disc was deleted and shipped out to mass retailers to sell cheap and could not be returned for a credit, this does not impede the value, many records eg Swan and VJ Beatles were done like that, also many promo lp’s were punched or slit to show they were provided as promotion and not charged to the client and no royalties paid to the artist
