Beatles / The Young Beatles
Japan ONLY LP


Polydor MP 1476

Appendices: "Original OBI” & “G/F Cover w/ A Flap ( attached inside gate-fold )”
( INSERT is not included )

Description: This is scarce Japan ONLY album ( released in 1970 ) of Beatles, coming with very rare obi. This album includes 12 tracks, recorded in their Hamburg days. The gate-fold cover with a flap inside shows "Japanese description", "Photos of members" & “English lyrics". Though the insert is not included, it’s not sure if it was originally issued for this item. It’s very hard to find this item with obi even in my country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

Side A: My Bonnie, Ain’t she swett, What’d I say, My babe, Yay a, Let’s dance

Side B: Cry for a shadow, When the saints go marchin in, You are my sunshine, Swanee river, Whole lotta shakin’ goin’ on, Ruby baby


Condition: G/EX- ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners & outer-edges, with the left-top-edge cracked ( See photo ). It’s scraped on the surface of each side, while being stained with light brown spots inside gate-fold. Light ring-wear is on the front & back. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. It has a few slight scuffs on each side, with a slight scratch on Side A-3~4. There’re a few spindle-marks on the label of Side A. Otherwise it has none of any hairline, which is to be rated as "EX-". No flaw on the groove of Side B.

OBI: G+, being lightly creased on the surface of each side, while being lightly browned ( stained ) on that of back. It’s worn on the top & bottom-edges, with the bottom-edge partly torn off.

INSERT: The insert is not included in this item. But it’s not sure if it was originally issued for this item.
