On this particular auction and due to the mid-range-to-higher end value of this special sealed Beatles album I must insist that anyone interested should have a least a 99% feedback rating and 5 or more completed auctions under their belt. If you have less than 5 or bad feedback, I will not sell this to you. We all have to protect ourselves with our investments, you understand I'm sure...
This is an extremely rare and scarce "Original Master Recording" 1987 first pressing and sealed album of The Beatles entitled, "Let it Be". This original Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab pressing album is on MFSL/Apple/EMI Records MFSL 1-109. This is an extremely tough higher end album to find out there still sealed and this one is gorgeous, all around! Overall in NM-condition and it's going to be a great find for the right collector and for the serious audiophile! Really pristine album...
Overall I would grade this sealed album as NM- and that is ONLY because there are just a few of the perforated stitches on the bottom of the custom sealed shrink baggie that opened up about 1/2" at most (this is so trivial and meaningless, yet I feel it keeps this beauty from being a solid NM overall). It is important for me to point this out, especially on a higher end item and for the very serious audiophile collectors. See the photos, but it is so tiny that you can barely tell. Album cover inside special sealed baggie is very thick, sturdy and completely sharp. No issues whatsoever and it is truly gorgeous.
You don't see many of the sealed "Let it Be" (Original Master Recording) MFSL albums come around... and I am guessing that this one (especially in this PRISTINE condition) will go rather fast.
This album comes right out of my own personal sealed vinyl collection and I have had it carefully stored in a special Bags Unlimited corrugated box made specially for precious vinyl. My vinyl collection is much like many folks' personal investments... I guard it with my life. You know it is coming from a great audiophile now.
This rare MFSL sealed LP will make you very, very happy! FREE PRIORITY MAIL SHIPPING!
I have described this total LP as accurately as possible and it will be a fantastic addition to any collector's records. I'm quite strict about my grading.
In 1977 Mobile Fidelity began to produce a line of records known as "Original Master Recording" vinyl LPs. These albums were previously released by other companies, licensed by Mobile Fidelity, and remastered by a process called half-speed mastering. During mastering, sound was transferred from magnetic tape to disc while the cutting lathe moved at half speed. The albums were remastered from the original analog master tapes, without compression, and with minimal equalization.The recordings were pressed in Japan on "Supervinyl", a plastic compound invented by JVC to compensate for the demands of Quadrophonic Compatible Discrete 4 records, which had been introduced in 1972. JVC Supervinyl was more durable than regular vinyl, with lower surface noise and fewer pops and clicks. Mobile Fidelity packaged their albums in heavy cardboard sleeves, inner cardboard stiffeners, and plastic liners.
Please ask any further questions you may have and happy bidding!
Sorry, no international shipping outside of North America (for shipping to Canada please contact me before purchasing so that I can provide an estimate of shipping costs).
Note: I cannot and will not accept any returns on sealed LPs that have been opened or attempts at opening these sealed gems. Once the shrink is cracked open it is non-returnable (standard practice for anyone selling sealed LPs).
I am a retired and disabled U.S. Navy veteran and I take pride in treating all my customers with TOP customer service, dependability and packaging of items. I also pride myself greatly on my 100% feedback rating, like so many of you do as well. Please contact me if there is any issue whatsoever and I will work hard to make it right. Our feedback is our lifeline, thus if anything is not right CONTACT ME please. Leaving negative feedback before working out the issue is just wrong, unethical and not what so many of us are about at all. Let's work together and thank you so much.
