Hey Jude
February 23, 1970 Apple Records
The Hey Jude LP was a non-UK release in 1970 featuring previously-released singles unavailable on other US records. It was originally titled Beatles Again but was changed, however, the first printing of the album features that title on the record. Not available on CD and apparently there are no plans to do so. At the time, this was a popular "import" for British Beatles Fans as some of these songs only appeared on this album at the time and this was the only album where Hey Jude appeared in Stereo. It was made in the UK and then exported, a complicated rarety. It was also strange that for an American release it was under the Apple label and not the Columbia Branding.
The Vinyl is in absolutely perfect condition, no scratches, no surface marks and it is still nice and shiny. The Cover is a bit creased in parts, more so on the rear, it is not split anywhere, you can read the Title and details on the spine, there is some slight damage on the bottom of the rear side, looks like fingernail damage to me. Garrod and Lofthouse (who else?) is printed on the bottom left of the rear side. If you have any questions about this album, please ask me. I have provided several photographs but if you need more, tell me.
