    The UK 1973 pressing that I own is certainly a second hand copy, is 50 year old this year, and still sounds great.

      Only 26 tracks on this double disc, compared to it’s counterpart LP’s 28 … room enough to add ( say )’Taxman’ and ‘Twist & Shout’
      A bit overloaded with ‘Rubber Soul’ tracks too ( although no bad songs on it )
      Great cover design though, for both sets

        I have a misprinted lyric sheet: Side B's lyrics appear where Side C's should be!

          The UK Early pressings are out of this world when played on high end equipment. Simply stunning sound quality.

            The Beatles are just amazing! The most influential artists in music history: George, John, Paul and Ringo.
            If you like music, there is a high possibility you like The Beatles!

              I have this copy but with some sort of misprint/misalignment of the Red Inner Sleeves. I have the Lyrics to Sides 1&2 as normal but then Sides 2&4 on the other Inner Sleeve i.e. the one starting with Hard Days Night is printed on both (but not the one starting with Help!) Does anyone else have a similar copy?

                I have a coloured version of German-1 C 188-05 307/308.The labels on sides 1 to 4 show the correct track listing but play sides 1 to 4 of the 1967-1970 album.Was this a common problem.?

                  Sound is amazing : crisp, detailed, "in your face". Harry Moss did a great job, no doubt ! I didn't expect such a good quality from a "compilation" ! And they are not expensive !! :-)

                    To be honest, this could have done without "Girl" and "Michelle" in exchange for "Rain" and "Tomorrow Never Knows".

                      Hello all, I have recently bought this copy below;

                      https://www.discogs.com/The-Beatles-1962-1966/release/1406835

                      I’m only curious, as my copy is a promotional copy. Has anyone else got a promotional copy? I will post some pictures once it arrives. I’m so glad that I got it though, as I’ve never seen a promotional Beatles album before. 😀
