With The Beatles is a hidden gem. Consistently overlooked in favour of the mid period Revolver and Sgt Pepper's, this album contains some of The Beatles best compositions including All My Loving, Little Child and I Wanna Be You're Man alongside the definitive version of Money!
According to The Beatles Collection (see below) the label changed slightly at the beginning of 1964 and the new label had matrix numbers 7N. This copy has the 4N matrix numbers and the original 1963 label and so is a later 1963 pressing. This vinyl is almost mint. There are only a few signs of being played and the sound is as good as I have heard from a mono album this old. The only downside are a few pops at the beginning of side 1 track 1. The rest is very good for a record which is nearly 60 years old.
I am a collector of 1960's and Punk records and all the albums have been regularly cleaned and played on a pioneer PL 12D and Rega turntable using both elliptical and spherical styli so that I can give you an honest evaluation of sound quality and not just a visual inspection. I value the records I sell appropriately and so can be a little higher than others, but you can buy with confidence that the record will be as described and of a quality that will grace your turntable. All records will have a plastic protective cover and will be sent in a proper record mailer.
