As an American this is the first time I’m seeing the UK design for a lot of these albums, really cool stuff
That's how I felt in 1982 (and still do) when I started seeing the imports in record shops. "Wait, it's not Capitol? What? This has more songs than...? Holy shit this is great!" I just wanted to get another copy of Rubber Soul and stumbled upon my first import that way.

Your knowledge about these various pressings is giving me goosebumps. Great presentation of some of the coolest Beatles LPs ever.
Thanks for watching, Tim.
"The cutout sheet..." *individual cutouts spill out*
I laughed, then I cried.
That aside, what a beautiful collection!
I made that mistake before - actually cutting them out. I wouldn't dream of doing that these days.
I've only found this channel recently..think I'm obsessed the level of detail is stupendous
Welcome aboard, Marcus!
Of course the rarity is amazing too but what really blows me away is the condition of all of these items. Wonderful job storing them! They are so beautiful!
Fantastic collection. Recently I bought an original first DUTCH mono pressing of Please Please Me, in fantastic condition....so incredibly proud of it :)
Never knew Nosferstu was a Beatles fan.

@Sam Thomas funny how you two pictureless first-lastname accounts both joined on the same day a month ago. seems legit!
@@fussanchez2716 it sure does lol. Probably not bots, because they’re also talking about the video.
Damn those UK pressings look amazing compared to the US. I appreciate you being able to distinguish between pressing, that takes years and years of knowledge.
I'm from Pa.and learned a lot over the years having Pre-Beatles and Beatles era 45's and knowing what labels used what fonts.I listed the variations Andrew is showing you,in comments most recent(2023)
The iconic Capitol black rainbow ring label was always synonymous with The Beatles hear in North America. I was surprised to discover another equally iconic UK Parlophone label when I purchased the brand new SGT Pepper LP in 2019.
WOW! With The Beatles with Jobete music! Impressive.
This channel is amazing, never stop!!
your knowledge is definitely going to help me in the future and to also date my grandmothers collection. thank you for this video.
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
Amazingly kept!
Me and mee brothers wore ours out - played them thru, downright to the other side!
Cheers my friend
Happy to have it Dave.
Staggering knowledge! Thank you, I'm amazed
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching.
I'd always thought that those 'Important' polylined inner sleeves lasted up until about June 1965 when the EMI companies were all novated to The Gramophone Co Ltd.
These little essays are always fascinating.
PS, I really enjoy your videos as I'd never really paid attention to matrix numbers in the run-off grooves.
Best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year. Gordon Taylor, Bonnie Scotland.
Happy 59th Birthday With the Beatles.
Hey,Andrew-The mono HDN is a Pye contractor (chubby print).Philips took over with contracting Beatles For Sale pressings onwards,with Decca/Oriole stepping in as backups.They did some HDN's too(Philips,I'm referring to)
As you probably know,Andrew,the "4th PROOF" printed inside the foldout was the part of the first runs.Quickly corrected,of course
The mono Help!is a Decca/Oriole,they contracted for the Long Tall Sally EP exclusively.
AMAZING😮🙌🙏
Got love the Parlophone label on their original Beatles UK albums. Other than that, it had this design that were also used in other labels when it was part of EMI including Columbia, Stateside, MFP, HMV, and Tamla Motown. As you probably know, Tamla Motown was a UK label where they put out the original Motown albums from the US for R&B and soul music. Many of the early Motown releases were on Stateside, another EMI product from the UK where they put out some early Motown stuff before Tamla Motown was formed in 1965. The “Sold in UK” text was also used between 1964 through 1968 were on Tamla Motown, HMV, Columbia, MFP, and Stateside.
Exactly right dude! Just one minor detail though, MFP wasn't included in that design style.
I liked Beatles songs and for conservation of my records I user with more carefull possible.Because this I user for recordable,after in this pass for a CD-R and sound stayed very good with USB system.I hear and good the sound.In this mode I achieve leave my records durable for much time,cause no need user all time,have the CD-R is over the problem.Uchino of Japan.Thank you.
Yes,the stereo is a later Philips on Help!the song title font matches the Apple titles(White Album,Abbey Road,etc.)Font is the giveaway.
Awesome collection, where do you get those gloves? Need to get me a pair
The comment for checking the title font for Help pressings was directed to Black and White Band's question,buried in the comments,contained within the ones below.
Everything looks NM or VG+ WoW!
@2:17 i have the 1963 February Australian issue of this album in mono similar lay out with exceptions the catalouge number is PCS 3045 with the 33 1/2 speed above it with the prefix number below YEX 111 below on the left running ob both sides of the centre hole the publishing companies this practice was stopped in 1969 with the track layout and sides 1 and 2 similar to the Australian issue
I love to have them all 👍
Am I missing something? Does Let It Be not count?
I guess they haven't found one yet at the time this video was recorded
Also it sucks
@@gigglepencil5433 nah, it's still a good record
@@ZaphiroAnejo I did that comment so long ago my god I have a completely new opinion on let it be I was dumb 3 months ago sorry
@@gigglepencil5433 oh lol, np
Listing to you explain these various Beatles copy’s is like listing to bob ross explain his art. In other worths very relaxing
Also,check the song title font,if you have the Philips contract pressing.The font was later changed,so check with a copy of the White Album,which would have the same font.
That Help!pressing was later.
Que maravilha, que jóia!
15:20 I have a VHS recording of It Was Twenty Years Ago Today documentary recorded in 1987. Watched it a few months ago. Still looks good.
Yes I immediately thought for PPM, 1965 sleeve but Summer 64 pressing inside, because of that 'fat' lettering on the STEREO and the 'copperplate' style lettering on the track listing (contemporary with AHDN).
16:05 I think that is the first Sgt. Pepper I've seen with the cut-outs actually cut out (but still present). It seems that either the cut outs are fully intact or they are missing altogether.
The UK “Sgt. Pepper” LP had the inner groove at the end of side 2 where it was gibberish like “Lucy Abbey all the way”, and when you play it backwards, it says “And were all be back here soon” or “All were all be back as Superman”. The US version doesn’t have it at the end of side 2.
Amazing! Cool colection of the stereo and mono pressings,but i guess you dont have Let it be and MM tour.Is it your collection?i mean did you buy these albums or these was given by your parents
That is a beautiful collection, I’m surprised you still store the discs in the original covers!
Oh yeah i guess it's more common now to see people put the valuable records in the mofi / rice paper sleeves
Maybe he just used them for this video shoot.
Parabéns bela coleção.
Obrigada!
It's a shame the Peppers weren't 4th Proof printed-on- inside -cover copies,Andrew.I had two with the 70 copies I got from my buddy in North New Jersey,when I bought his 40 bins collection back in 2015.Its all been sold unfortunately.
It'd be great to see the same thing with the rolling stones!
Take look here, Nicola: ua-cam.com/video/m3MffztGonE/v-deo.html
Good these days to find a copy of HEY JUDE where the cover hasn't split at the top!!
Do you have the original 1964 vinyl album of the Australian cover version of Beatles for Sale with the yellow background & the live in concert photos from Festival Hall in Melbourne? Apparently John Lennon rang up the Australian EMI distributor asking them to change the cover to the leafy UK version, but they refused (so much for the power of being a "Beatle"). The vinyl version I bought in Sydney Australia in 1987 is the 1987 Festival Hall version. I didn't buy the leafy CD until a few years later. Also there was a different version of With The Beatles cover art I would see in second hand shops in the late 80s with their heads arranged in a cross configuration as opposed to the 3 across 1 down photo.
The beatles vinyl favorite please please me
With the beatles a hard days night rubber soul revover with album
How these are preserved so well blows my mind! How does the White album is so white and clean? Doesnt yellow paper normally turn yellow over time? Any tips for this? Thank you
Most albums from the 60's turned yellow from smoke. If you don't smoke, don't worry.
I have the equivalent on the Capitol label; mono and stereo first press of each LP. Such fun....
stlydan You have an American versions, I think, not British; different in tracks lineup & covers, made from copies of original master tapes, send to America from Abbey Road Studios except Magical Mistery Tour, which is “native American”, as far as I remember...
Cool I like the American and British pressings
Great collection! How come none of these have ringwear?
They were very well looked after. Unlike U.S. copies, the laminated front panels protected them against ring wear.
holy shit. as soon as I saw the Norwegian wood mis-spell I jumped. that's worth like 600 pounds!
I've got the blue British box set thats never been on a table. Jim
Why the gloves only in this video? I’ve seen unboxing’s here of the same records and no gloves were worn then.
The stereo HDN is a Philips pressing.
Andrew, I could use some Help!... specifically Help determining an early 1st pressing Stereo Help!. In your video (as well as about 10 other places) its claimed that the asterisk comes AFTER "I Need You" . However after a dealer online debated with me up and down that his copy with an asterisk to the LEFT of "I Need You" was a first issue, I decided to contact Bruce Spizer and Perry Cox. To my surprise they concur with the ebay dealer. I'm now as confused as ever. The only other difference I can find between a 65 and a 66 stereo pressing is the spacing between (YEX168) and (P) 1965
On first pressings the asterisk comes after 'I Need You'.
Take a look at it on these labels on copies I've sold.

And 1969 press which used the same label configuration as a 2nd (1966/7) press but just without the 'Sold in UK...' text: www.popsike.com/Beatles-Help-UK-1969-YB-Solid-STEREO-Cover-Logo-NM/290422966990.html
@@Parlogram And I always understood it to be as you say. But here's a photo of an ebay item I was looking at that has an asterisk BEFORE the title, AND the "Sold in the UK" text.

And like I said, when Bruce Spizer and Cox say it, I dont know WHAT to believe. Perhaps I'm interchanging the words "1st issue" with "1st pressing" and thats where I'm messing up. Anyhow, thank you for your input. I look forward to your next video.
Beautiful collection but no Let It Be?
I always mused on the reason for the word "PROHIBITED" in the rim text getting knocked out of line on the change to The Gramophone Co Ltd. I always imagine the guy substituting the new wording into the master plates knocking the word PROHIBITED with his chisel, making it ping off somewhere onto the workshop floor, and having to stick it back into place!
Hey I’m thinking about starting a record collection is there anything I should know before I start?
I don't know much about the Beatles but I have about 15 Vinyl albums from my dad that I'm looking to sell.
Drop us a line here, Maz and we'll try to help you out: www.parlogramauctions.com/Contact
Where did you get these? I want one!
Andrew can you recommend a specific style/brand glove to wear while handling LPs? I know it sounds silly, but I dont want any lint from the gloves getting on them. Also, do you currently have any early STEREO UK 1st pressings for sale?
Cotton gloves are best. Keep an eye on the site.
Hi Andrew, can you clarify for me... On the run-off groove, did the '- 1, 2, or 3 indicate the pressing of the albums?
I have a mono copy of 'A Hard Day's Night' which has a '-3 N' in the run-off groove. This was the first Beatles album I was given; my cousin, (who lives in Glasgow) used to go round jumble sales looking for Beatles albums for me. He would then bring them to me when visiting my family with his parents .
Hi Gordon, On most albums -1 indicated a 1st pressing. However, 1st pressings of 'A Hard Day's Night' and 'Beatles For Sale' used -3.
Wishing you a Happy and healthy New Year too!
Thanks Andrew, I now realise that I'll have to check all my other Beatles albums to see which pressings they are. Can I contact you again if I have any further questions?
Did the UK mono Sgt Pepper come with the red and white inner sleeve and the cutouts ?? I presume so but not certain
It did.
Oh yeah it's super trippy to see and and play the UK mono
does the gloss laminate decrease the value?
Stereo Rubber Soul is a Decca/Oriole.
There's no Beatles Oldies .. but Goldies!
Up until revolver, I only recognize the US albums. Unlike the UK albums, The US albums, we’re only released in America.Unfortunately, I had to by the Beatles mono with The UK albums. But I did buy the Capitol albums volume one and two. They needed to volume three, but that never happened.
Interesting Bernard, is that because that's what you've grown up with/are used to, or do you prefer the US track grouping/sequencing when compared to the UK versions?
@@JJDoggett I prefer the US tracking listing especially on rubber soul.
By the way I'm not saying this to be a smart Alec because I made the same mistake for years too, but Patent as in Patent Applied For is pronounced "Pattant" rather than "Paytant" (as in Patent Leather). Took me a long time to believe that myself!
12:12 - You would think that having the typeset saved from 1965 that spelling wouldn't be an issue.
22:45. Just a little bit longer than side 2 of "Abbey Road."
I have all of those, mine are different versions though, mostly US, some are a lot rougher condition, some are better, like my re stickered butcher baby i got at goodwill for 25cents.
Did this collection sell as a lot or individually and how much...
They were all sold separately. The prices varied.
Good!
What is this alternate version of Tomorrow Never Knows?
After the first issue the track was replaced with a different version, albums with original mix have a matrix number ending in 1 on Side 2
Autograph is Authentic?
Hi my friend
Can you help me got this Beatles 45 record form a carboot and
On the record label it's got ( baby, you're a rich man ) on both sides put when I play the
Record it's Got( all you need is love ) ( baby you're a rich man ) can you tell anything about it please
Is this a rare 45 of the Beatles and any value Dave.
Hi Dave, Factory mis-pressings are fun but not that valuable. Your disc is worth about 20-30 GBP in good shape.
Rubber Soul mono is a Philips.-1?!!!?Should be the loud cut mix.
No let it be?
Hello, this collection keeps amazing me on how it has been preserved after many decades.
Could you tell me how they were stored please?
My rarer records are stored in polypropylene outer sleeves. These are resealable, so no air circulation (or is this bad?). They are stored in my collecting room, no sun, smoke and low humidity.
Any tips to preserve the record and the sleeve (artwork) I would very much appreciate.
Have a very good day.
Old, original covers were glossy, shiny and HD...today’s reissues are rubbish offset prints
Depends on the kid of card they use. If they use regular Ivory paper or Mirror Coat,m the quality will be low, but if they use 350GSM Matt, with a Lami/gloss finish, it'll look like the old ones.
Its actually kinda the other way around in my experience.
Where can I buy a collection like this one, something with (relatively) quiet clean vinyl? In not so much looking for valuable as I am for sound quality. I' don''t trade or sell/use my records to make money, but in all my travels, anything Beatles commands an obscene sum. The obvious BC/BM boxes are stupid expensive as are the later Stereo/Mono sets from the 2000's.
I listen to my vinyl regularly, not worship or pplace it on a shelf to look at/brag about, so again, it doesn't need to be valuable or high dollar, just clean and quiet. I'm looking for UK/German, the stuff from over here in the states is garbage.
You don't have yesterday and today in Magical Mystery Tour
Neither were UK albums. Yesterday & Today was a US compilation; and Magical Mystery Tour was an E.P. (until '76).
But yesterday and today was originally made and 1966
I know but he doesn't have the original versions of it
Because this is a collection of UK albums, of course he's not going to have Yesterday and Today because that was never released in Britain. Magical Mystery Tour wasn't taken into the canon until 1976. This has been explained by others as well.
Yesterday and Today was a compilation album using tracks from the British Help!, Rubber Soul and the forthcoming Revolver albums with a couple of singles thrown in. It was purely a Capitol cash in.
Why is the Australian " Beatles for Sale " different to the UK &US
The cover is the only difference between the UK and Australian issue. 'Beatles For Sale' wasn't released in the U.S.
@@Parlogram Yes it's yellow background with photos of the boy's. Whereas in the blue collection "With the Beatles " is the cover of the one seen in photo ^^^

When EMI before closed your doors,coming in last moment those albuns collection in 2012 and I bought the Lp Help! but no playing very well this album I don´t know why?I used a spray and brush for cleaning the lps,but only this Help Lp no playing how shoulder it.When give the start, jump any tracks and isn´t problem with my turntable,because the capsule is new,but the Lp no function very well.So pass some years more later,here in Japan a publishing company relaunched all Beatles albuns and by Universal and when I bought the Help lp,now playing in normal condition,no jump the tracks and give a good sound yet.I don´t know what happen with EMI vinyl as only this lp no playing in good condition and give all that problem.Because have this problem perhaps EMI ready be declared bankruptcy and closed your doors so the quality of products no was good my guess.The prodution of lp down or EMI lost marketplace for independent record labels can be.So this perhaps shoulder be the situation of company ok.Uchino of Japan.Thank you.
