Reviews
I’ve got a NM copy of this first press and it has a really dynamic sound with deep bass and sweet treble. I’m so happy to own this it really is a killer sounding album on a decent system. Not heard the MOFI or recent remaster, but hard to believe anything tops this one.- This is the very first pressing with the original cover crop ie the drain included and more of the zebra crossing in front of Lennon. Picture here is a little over exposed but the colours are richer and there's more shadow detail than the later misaligned cover. As long as vinyl is original to cover you have a complete first issue. The misaligned cover is not the first run cover.
Found a near mint copy at my local shop for real cheap. After playing I sold my mofi release. Absolutely killer! The way this album is meant to be heard by all means.
Edited 12 days agoThe definitive Abbey Road pressing! Warm (as tubes warm), great dynamics and wide soundstage. It’s a real pleasure to sit and listen from beginning to end every time I drop the needle.
Just Love it- My lp matches up with everything
But does not have 11 tracks
