Since I'm already the proud owner of the US mono and stereo originals and the German A1/B3 matrix https://monolover.blogspot.com/search?q=%28M%C3%84GX*%29 I shouldn't need this, especially as it uses the full 1967 US tapes with fake stereo versions of "Penny Lane", "All You Need Is Love" and "Baby You're A Rich Man". There's been debates about this issue, about why they stuck with the US instead of replacing those tracks with the George Martin true stereo re-mixes, or why they didn't redress the whole thing with fresher tapes from the EMI vaults. That would have meant having all tracks in true stereo and/or getting better audio all over, which may have put this up there with the German A1/B3 issue. However the audio here is pretty good too and it does mean something to me to have a first UK press of a Beatles LP on Parlophone. Even if my first choices for listening always will be the US mono and German stereo, this is valuable in another way and now that I've found a fine copy I know we'll never part. It came with label as shown here in a laminated fold/out cover with stapled booklet inside. (BÄ*) (LGÅ*) (PÖX*) (MÄGX*)
