THE ROLLING STONES           No2      

MONO 

WITH EX+/NEAR MINT AUDIO !!!!
Firstly the boring bit, but these are the facts about this pressing and time of release, etc, so please read FULLY as it is VERY important, thank you !!!! 
NOW THE VERY EARLIEST WHEN FIRST RELEASED, HAD 1st VARIATION 'A' LABELS, WITH A DEEP GROOVE, AND THE ONE LISTED BELOW HAS 1st VARIATION 'B' LABELS, ALSO WITH A DEEP GROOVE, AS THEY HAVE THE 'BIEM' AND 'NCB' BOXES ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE LABEL, AND ALSO, PRODUCTION, AND RECORDING DETAILS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE LABELS, SO A VERY EARLY 1965 PRESS !!!!

THIS IS THE ROLLING STONES WHO WERE FORMED IN LONDON IN 1962, AND THEIR 2nd ALBUM ORIGINALLY RELEASED ON 15th JANUARY 1965, AND THIS IS FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION, AND PLAYS SUPERB , AS WILL BE DESCRIBED BELOW !!!!
THIS ALSO HAS THE EARLIEST COVER WITH THE 'BLINDMAN TEXT' ON THE BACK OF THE COVER, WHICH WAS SOON CHANGED AS IT WAS OFFENSIVE TO BLIND PEOPLE. FIRSTLY THEY HAD SO MANY COVERS ALREADY MADE, SO INSTEAD OF THROWING THEM AWAY, AND REPRINTING, THEY STUCK A CENSORED VERSION ON THE BACK, OVER THE WHOLE SIDE, WHICH IS KNOWN AS A 'PASTE OVER' COVER. TO BE HONEST A LOT OF SELLERS SAY THE 'BLINDMAN TEXT' IS RARE AND HARD TO FIND, WHERE IN FACT, TO FIND AN UNBOXED DECCA LABEL IN AN ORIGINAL COVER WITH THE COVER CENSORED LIKE THE LATER BOXED DECCA LABEL COVERS, IS VERY RARE INDEED !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!  
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1ST VARIATION 'B' LABEL 1965 UK PRESS :: XARL-6619-2A  :: XARL-6620-1A .

ON THE RED UNBOXED GROOVED DECCA LABEL  ::  LK. 4661 .
COVER :: AS MENTIONED EARLIEST FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK, WITH THE BLINDMAN TEXT ON THE BACK, AND IN BEAUTIFUL CLEAN AND SOLID CONDITION, WITH SUPERB SPINE AND EDGES JUST A SMALL RUB AND A SMALL CREASE LINE, IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER, AND A SMALL CREASE LINE IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER ON THE BACK. THE FRONT AND THE LAMINATE AGAIN SUPERB, AND EVEN THE BACK LOOKS LOVELY JUST SOME VERY, VERY LIGHT AGEING, AND AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS, THIS WILL BE DIFFICULT TO BETTER. THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE I WOULD GRADE A BEAUTIFUL  :: EX/EX- . BUT NEARER TO EX !!!! VINYL ::  THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERB AND AGAIN WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND BETTER, AS THERE ARE NO JUMPS, SKIPS, STICKS, POPS, CLICKS, NASTY STATIC, OR CRACKLE, AND ALL I HEARD WAS.... JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK AT THE END OF TRACK 5 ON SIDE 2 !!!! VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL STILL HOLDS ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, AND ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT ARE THERE A COUPLE OF TINY COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND A LONGER ONE ON SIDE 1, AND AGAIN COSMETIC AND TOTALLY HARMLESS, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  EX+/NEAR MINT .  
LABELS ::  VERY NICE, JUST A COUPLE OF FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT  :: EX .

ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER ::  WITH NO SPLITS OR WRITING, VERY NICE, JUST A BIT OF AGEING, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER, ALONG WITH THE ONE LISTED ABOVE  :: VG/VG+ .
YET ANOTHER STONES CLASSIC, AND AS YOU HAVE SEEN AND READ, PLAYS OUTSTANDING, AND HAS A BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL COVER AND ORIGINAL INNER !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME, ROSE.

DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, THANK YOU !!!! 

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
