Description
For sale is an original double-vinyl 33-1/3 RPM LP album set of (2) records. The title is: Beatles / 1962 - 1966. SKBO 3403. It is commonly known as the "Red Album," which is due to the red-colored sleeve inserts.
I tested the condition of the records on my own home record player before listing on eBay, and I found no problems.
This is guaranteed to be a one-owner item, in the sense that it once belonged to my father. I inherited it when he passed away. And since my dad had a personal policy of never buying used records anytime in his life that I can remember, I'm 100% confident that he purchased this brand new from the music store, back in the day.
The following Beatles songs are featured:
RECORD 1, SIDE 1:
Love Me Do
Please Please Me
From Me to You
She Loves You
I Want to Hold Your Hand
All My Loving
Can't Buy Me Love
RECORD 1, SIDE 2:
A Hard Day's Night
And I Love Her
Eight Days a Week

If the buyer is displeased as to audio or cosmetic quality upon receipt, you may return this record for your money back.
Finally, you may be curious, as I was myself, as to why the vinyl records themselves are black (not red), as are so many other similar albums listed here on eBay under this same title. So I asked the question and put it to Google's AI engine. This was the AI's detailed reply:
"The original 1973 release of The Beatles 1962–1966 (the "Red Album") on Apple Records in New York did not have red discs. The original US release in 1973 featured standard black vinyl. Here's why the discs weren't red in the 1973 release:
- Colored vinyl was not standard practice in 1973. Colored vinyl was more commonly associated with limited editions or special reissues, which were more prevalent later in the 1970s and beyond.
- The initial releases in 1973 were on standard black vinyl. This was the standard format for album releases at the time.
- The red vinyl pressings came later. The red vinyl editions of The Beatles 1962–1966 were primarily reissues that began appearing in the late 1970s and continued with later reissues"
. . . and this answer was good enough to satisfy my curiosity.
