All Parlophone LP's produced between 1964 and late 1965 will have The Parlophone Co. Ltd. in the rim print and will have the Sold in UK message across the middle of the label.

This is a superb copy of the classic beatles album. A extremely rare First UK JOBETE Pressings, with great vinyl and great cover

.

.

The Beatles second official L.P. release. Two weeks BEFORE release, "With The Beatles" had advance orders of 270,000, and before the first week of release was out, the half-a-million figure had been beaten. They were actually awarded a Silver disc (for sales of 250,000) on November 18th 1963, 4 days BEFORE release ! By mid January 1964 885,000 had been sold in the U.K. and by the end of 1964, the total was 980,000.

The ONE MILLION mark arrived by September 1965, making this album the FIRST EVER British album to sell 1,000,000 copies in the U.K. The American version of this album, Meet The Beatles bizarrely left off five of the tracks, but sold over 5 million copies. This makes combined sales for The Beatles second album of over 6.5 million.

.

.

Chartwise, this L.P. replaced "Please Please Me" at the number one slot, and remained there for 21 weeks. This gave The Beatles a continuous run of 51 weeks at the summit !_Also, in these early days of the British charts, ALL product was listed together regardless of format, and therefore this L.P. even made it into the U.K. singles chart, reaching number 11, which was a record placing for an album.

The cover was a very artful half-shadow black-and-white shot of The Beatles taken by Robert Freeman.

.

ALBUM PLAYED FOR GRADING:

Yes – brilliant! -  EXCELLENT sound quality throughout

This great record plays up to the high visual grading and beyond . Strong, undistorted sound free of any loud pops or clicks. The record plays with staggering power, with a minimum of surface sound during the tracks. Fabulous mono power!

Great audio with minimal interference to distract form the overly enjoyment of this great record. There is light background noise in quiet areas but it does not detract in anyway from the music.

I really enjoyed listening to the first Jobete mono pressing. John Lennon said that the beatles were best listened to in mono, and when you listen to this album you can really hear what he meant. The music jumps out, with definition, power and clarity, giving an incredibly live rockous sound. a great MONO First press experience.

A great all round example of this great FIRST PRESS BEATLES vinyl

staggering first MONO mix, unlike the re-issues which lack the impact.

THE RECORD - VERY GOOD PLUS 

A lovely piece of glossy vinyl. Extremely heavy, there are a fair amount of faint hairlines and a few light scratches, but nothing heavy and nothing that interrupts the sound. A really nice rare example!

.

VINYL SOUND - Please Note:

Top quality vinyl with clear sound is rare, and is what I always aim for. Even with the cleanest copies you will find occasional static sound during playback, caused by a build of dust in the grooves. This is clearly different from the distortion, loud pops or clicks that are found on heavily played and worn pieces of vinyl. Any static build up will reduce when played, and I advise a light clean should be given between plays for optimal performance.

.

.

VINYL TESTED FOR ANY SIGNS OF WARPING:

Yes, NONE visible what so ever when tested be sight and on a moving turntable.

.

.

THE COVER – VERY GOOD PLUS

Original Ernest J. Day cover. With the Beatles was originally published with the misspelling "You Really Gotta Hold on Me", on the track listing on the back of the cover. These were quickly corrected, so the GOTTA covers are increasingly rare. If you are lucky enough to find a first press vinyl, having one with the correct matching cover is even more rare. 

Being the second Beatles album, it is extremely hard to find With the Beatles covers in anything like decent condition. This is a lovely example with only very light corner wear and some light creasing to the laminate.

With the Beatles covers have to be one of the most prone to wear, of all the classic Beatles vinyls from the sixties. The laminate is prone to cracking and lifting, with serious ring wear and destruction to the edges. The unlaminated back is usually heavily marked and The Spines are nearly always flattened, worn and un readable. Not this one!

There is some very light scuffing to the corners, but no rubbing along the edges. The opening edges are very square and un frayed, but there has been a small split at the opening, which has a very discreet repair underneath. The white areas are very white, with no blemishes. The back cover is nice and clean, with no discernible ring wear, which is very unusual for these delicate covers.

The Spine shows minimal wear only, with no cracks, the spine text is totally intact, and is one of the squarer examples I have seen. A great example. All round, this is a really nice cover!!!

.

.

THE LABELS - EXCELLENT CONDITION

Both labels are in EXCELLENT CONDITION, with light spindle traces and wear around the spindle hole. The MT tax credits are still black and un worn. There are some marks on the side 2 label, but I would not say they detract from the over all quality. Nice examples of this rare classic First press.

.

.

THE INNER

Comes with TWO Original First Press Inner Sleeve with Polythene Lining. One is slightly worn but the second is totally intact, in great condition, just some light yellowing. States: "USE EMITEX..." & "IMPORTANT - TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOUR MICROGROOVE RECORDS ..."

EXCELLENT condition, NO tears around the die cut openings, and NO wear at the tops. Crisp and Clean.

.

.

RARITY

A FIRST PRESS copy of With the Beatles in this type of condition is scarce. The vinyl is so often played so much, heavily marked, scratched, with noisy, poor and distorted sound. Any JOBETE examples with a record in this type of condition, that plays really well is very rare.

FIRST UK Yellow and Black original pressings of With the Beatles are getting rarer by the day. Finding one in all round nice is extremely rare, and makes this a very rare opportunity.

.

.

This is an Original First Uk Press from 1963 with Original Inner Sleeve and great original HEAVY PRESSED Vinyl. With Original Yellow and Black Parlophone Labels with the rarer MT Tax Credit,  the Jobete label and the correct first press 'GOTTA' cover. Finding a copy in this condition is VERY RARE Indeed. A wonderful and extremely rare copy of this classic early beatles album

MAKING THIS A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO OWN AN EXTREMELY RARE PIECE OF MUSICAL HISTORY.

MINT: Virtually unplayed. The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. Cover is pristine.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

V.G PLUS: The record will still be nice and shiny, but may have a few light marks, and will play well. Slight wear and tear on the cover.

V.G: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, etc.

FAIR: Fair. It is noticeable that the record has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated very noticeably. The cover and contents are showing signs of folding, scuffing of edges etc.
