ONEADAYRECORDS – Delivering Quality Music to the World. Please see my Detailed Packing Description Further Down & All Shipping Costs and Options – NOTE: I now apply the Ebay ‘4-day’ rule for non-payment.Artist or Band: THE BEACH BOYS Album Title: Pet Sounds. Producer(s): Brian Wilson. TRACK LIST: Side 1: Wouldn’t It Be Nice; You Still Believe In Me; That’s Not Me; Don’t Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder); I’m Waiting For The Day; Let’s Go Away For A While; Sloop John B. Side 2: God Only Knows; I Know There’s An Answer; Here Today; I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times; Pet Sounds; Caroline No. Label/Format: Capitol – original Capitol ‘Rainbow rim’ format with flat matt finish. With close examination, these look very slightly textured. Side two has the embossed ‘K T’ tax codes, both of which are pristine as made. Label Conditions: Both look fantastic: very clean, super fresh and highly attractive with any spindle traces tiny, few and faint. The minimal traces of fingermarks to the matt and highly revealing surfaces is unusual to say the least. Once handling marks are applied to such surfaces, they are near impossible to remove. It will be immediately apparent to any winning bidder these labels have rarely been touched and I am certain this record has not seen light of day for decades. Please remember the great age of this evergreen classic and popular title, finding such clean and lightly played copies is immensely difficult. Cat Number: ST 2458. Mode / Speed: Stereo / 33.3 rpm. Warps: Assume all records I offer have no warping of any significance and all tracking is easy and effortless and should play on all turntables and even ‘budget’ decks. Weight of this Record: 158 grams. One of the heaviest Pet Sounds I have held and as the mother and stampers below confirm, one of the earliest pressed. Country of Manufacture: England. Rarity: Original stereo copies are much rarer than the mono versions that was still the mode of choice back in 1966 with fewer people owning stereo equipment at this time. The earliest examples that still play with practically flawless sound are at a premium and this copy plays beautifully.
