Description
The Beatles, Apple SWBO 101, 1968 issue. This is a beautiful copy of this classic double album. This is a first press with the embossed name and numbered - A1570939. The cover is in NM condition. There are no splits, stickers, writing, or the ever present ring wear you see on so many copies of this album. The cover still retains a glossy finish. The only flaws is some light age spotting at top and bottom seams and on the inside you will see small marks in the middle, top and bottom and corners. It could be tape residue but I am not sure. The Pictures and posters are in MINT condition, never been used. The vinyls are in NM condition with full luster and shine. The labels are in MINT condition! This is an exceptional copy of this legendary album. You will be very happy to have this. Please ask any questions you like. I want you to be satisfied.
From Wiki:
The Beatles is the ninth official album by the English rock group The Beatles, a double album released in 1968. It is also commonly known as "The White Album" as it has no graphics or text other than the band's name embossed (and, on the early LP and CD releases, a serial number) on its plain white sleeve.
The album was written and recorded during a period of turmoil for the group, after visiting the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in India and having a particularly productive songwriting session in early 1968. Returning to the studio, the group recorded from May to October 1968, only to have conflict and dissent drive the group members apart. Ringo Starr quit the band for a brief time, leaving Paul McCartney to play drums on two tracks. Many of the songs were "solo" recordings, or at least by less than the full group, as each individual member began to explore his own talent.
Upon release in November 1968, the album received largely positive reviews and reached number 1 on the charts in the United Kingdom and the United States. The album is notable for the eclectic nature of its songs, which has divided critics in evaluating its legacy. The album has sold over 30 million copies worldwide, and was listed at number 10 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list.Rolling Stone magazine ranked it #9 on "The 100 Best Albums of the Last Twenty Years."
