Description

I am reluctantly selling my Rock Vinyl Record collection. These albums were bought in my youth, they were only played by myself on my Thorens TD160 record deck [with tracking cleaning arm] and stored with great care. They probably haven't been played for over 30 years and kept safe in my loft since I moved early/mid 80's. I have now sold the record deck - hence I cannot confirm their playing status but I'm sure they were OK with no jumps. Looking at each surface I can see no marks unless indicated below – please read my specific listing info below and ask any questions.

This listing is for Beatles Abbey Road

Record condition and status:- disk looks in near mint condition and has matrix YEX 749 4/5? 

Sleeve condition:- Excellent

Insert condition:- Near mint

Please also check my other listings as I'm sure I can do combined postage

Abbey Road is the 11th studio album by the English rock band the Beatles, released on 26 September 1969 in the United Kingdom and on 1 October 1969 in the United States. The recording sessions for the album were the last in which all four Beatles participated. Although Let It Be was the final album that the Beatles completed before the band's dissolution in April 1970, most of the album had been recorded before the Abbey Road sessions began.[1] A double A-side single from the album, "Something"/"Come Together", released in October, topped the Billboard chart in the US.

Abbey Road is a rock album[2] that incorporates genres such as blues, pop and progressive rock,[3] and it makes prominent use of the Moog synthesizer and the Leslie speaker. Side two contains a medley of song fragments edited together to form a single piece. The album was recorded amidst a more collegial atmosphere than the Get Back/Let It Be sessions earlier in the year, but there were still frequent confrontations within the band, particularly over Paul McCartney's song "Maxwell's Silver Hammer", one of four tracks on which John Lennon did not perform. He had privately left the group by the time the album was released and McCartney publicly quit the following year.
