grading
RECORD: the record has obviously been played many times,
but displays no major deterioration in sound quality,
despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional scratch
BUT skips on A1 and B5. (please, also read above description)
A1 (on my stereo equipment skips several times)
B5 (on my stereo equipment skips a couple of times)
A2 to A7, B1 to B4; B6, B7 (occasional scratch or light background noise, but sounds fresh and clear throughout)
SLEEVE VG+ (please, see pictures and read above description)
Once "Please Please Me" rocketed to number one, the Beatles rushed to deliver a debut album, bashing out Please Please Me in a day.
Decades after its release, the album still sounds fresh, precisely because of its intense origins.
As the songs rush past, it's easy to get wrapped up in the sound of the record itself without realizing
how the album effectively summarizes the band's eclectic influences.
Naturally, the influences shine through their covers, all of which are unconventional and illustrate the group's superior taste.
There's a love of girl groups, vocal harmonies, sophisticated popcraft, schmaltz, R&B, and hard-driving rock & roll,
which is enough to make Please Please Me impressive, but what makes it astonishing is
how these elements converge in the originals...(AllMusic)
