THE BEATLES
"YELLOW SUBMARINE" APPLE PMC 7070 RARE MONO PRESSING
RELEASED JANUARY 17th 1969
STAMPERS 1 M 1 O (VERY EARLY FIRST PRESSING)
MATRICES -1 -1
"An EMI Recording" TEXT ON TWO LINES WITH "SOLD IN THE UK' LABEL TEXT
THIS IS THE LAST ORIGINAL BEATLES ALBUM TO HAVE A DEDICATED MONO RELEASE
LAMINATED FRONT FOLDOVER SEAM RECORD SLEEVE IS IN CLEAN LEGIBLE CONDITION SOME LIGHT RINGWEAR AND OPENING EDGE WEAR WITH SOME SMALL CREASES AROUND THE EDGES
THE SLEEVE REAR HAS A LEGIBLE INNER PANEL (SOME LIGHT WEAR TO THE EDGE OF THE BOTTOM SEAM IN THE MIDDLE ) AND COMES WITH THE TWO RED LINES ABOVE AND BELOW THE TEXT AND ALSO HAS NO PRINTERS CREDIT ON THE LOWER SEAM ( QUICKLY RECTIFIED )
THE PMC 7070 TEXT AT THE TOP OF THE SLEEVE ALSO HAS "AVAILABLE ON STEREO PCS 7070" TEXT ON ONE LINE
THESE ARE ALL SIGNIFIERS OF AN EARLY FIRST PRINTED SLEEVE
RECORD ALSO COMES WITH ITS CORRECT DIE CUT BLACK INNER WHICH HAS TWO VERY SMALL REPAIRS AROUND THE CENTREHOLE BUT THE REST OF THE SLEEVE IS EXCELLENT
VINYL RECORD STILL RETAINS A DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN TO THE SURFACES WHICH DO SHOW THE LIGHTEST OF HANDLING / NEEDLE MARKS NOTHING FEELABLE ,THE 'B' SIDE HAS A MARK IN THE RUN OUT GROOVE AGAIN NOT FEELABLE AND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE AUDIO
BOTH LABLES ARE PRISTINE AND CLEAN ,CENTREHOLE IS UNWORN AND ANY SPINDLE MARKS ARE CONFINED TO THE CENTREHOLE AREA OF THE RECORD
A PLAY TEST OF THE 'A' SIDE PRODUCED THE ODD VERY LIGHT BACKGOUND NOISE ON THE OPENING TRACK BUT AFTER THAT ALL SEEMED OK
THE 'B' SIDE (THE GEORGE MARTIN SIDE) YES I DID LISTEN TO IT, PLAYED THROUGH AGAIN WITH A LITTLE VERY LIGHT BACKGROUND NOISE ON THE ODD OCCASION BUT WAS EXCELLENT TO LISTEN TO
WE DO PLAY TEST ON A SIXTIES HI-FI FOR REVIEW SO WE CAN ONLY REALLY COMMENT ON WHAT WE HEAR AND PLEASE REMEMBER THIS RECORDING IS NOW 57 YEARS OLD AND HAS PROBABLY OUTLIVED THE FIRST TURNTABLE IT WAS EVER PLAYED ON MOST LIKELY SOME FORM OF "DANSETTE"
