Beatles / With the Beatles
Japan Tour Only Apple Edition LP


Apple AP - 8678

Appendices: “Orange OBI”, “G/F Cover w/Booklet" & “Inner-Bag”
( INSERT is not originally issued )

Description: This is Apple edition copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of Japanese album "With the Beatles" ( originally issued to commemorate their 1966 Japan tour ). Insert is not originally issued for this item. Instead a booklet is attached inside gate-fold cover to show "Japanese description", "English & Japanese lyrics" & "Colorful photos of their stage". OBI is not red but “ORANGE”, though the price on obi is JPY2000. It’s the same as red one. The disc is not red but ordinary black. Anyway, it’s hard to find this album with orange obi even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

Side A: All my loving, Please Mr. postman, Don’t bother me, It won’t be long, All I’ve got to do, Little child, Till there was you

Side B: Roll over Beethoven, Money, I wanna be your man, Hold me tight, Devil in her heart, Not a second time, You’ve really got a hold on me

It’s creased around the rims of back, and lightly with minor scratches in places on the surface of front & inside gate-fold ( including booklet ). Light ring-wear is on the surface of back, as usual with this album ( See photos ). Inside booklet is lightly stained on its surface, as usual. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has slight tiny scuffs marks like dots in part on each side, which seem “misprint”. There’re a few spindle-marks with minor spots on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "VG+". It plays fine on each side.
