About this release:
From www. the Beatles-collection.com:
REVOLVER First pressing, August 5, 1966. “Remix 11” mispressing. Side 2 matrix no.: XEX 606-1 have “Remix 11” of “Tomorrow Never Knows”.
When “Revolver” was initially mixed a different master for “Tomorrow Never Knows” was sent off to be pressed. This mix is known as ‘Remix 11’. Although subtle, it is different to the standard ‘Remix 8’ which was ultimately to replace it. The story goes that each group member was given the first copies from the production line and John went to listen to it. But, it turned out that he was unhappy with the mix or that the wrong one had been used and he informed George Martin. Production was then stopped as the new masters were cut and the pressing plates were replaced. First presses have a side 2 matrix number of XEX 606-1 whereas the standard presses have XEX 606-2 and beyond.
1st pressing released with Black label with yellow logo and silver print. The Gramophone Co. Ltd printed at the start perimeter print and Sold in U.K. subject to... etc. and with
….Plain white or white & black “LP advertising” inner sleeves (used from 1966 replacing the use emitex type…) can be With or without KT tax code on the label.
Condition and details below:
Cover is superb, very clean, very little creasing, no marks/pen solid and in excellent condition- EX!....The inner sleeve is the original 1966 EMI black and white advertising one, again in excellent condition = EX....Vinyl has many light surface markings as you'd expect , and a noticeable scratch on first track, (see playback test below) = VG;..... labels are clean, ex, KT side 2...On my system the LP plays with light crackle in many places and the scratch causes a few ticks at the start of Taxman, NO JUMPS though - any surface noise did not detract from an excellent , powerful full on mono sound in my opinion... - VG all round...Side 1: XEX 605-2; Side 2: XEX 606-1.
