        I have a mint copy of this -1. Doesn’t sound very good at all. 2012 version sounds far better.

            During the big Beatles sales push by E.M.I. in 1976 after their contract expired, this LP was given a proper official release on the Parlophone label with a catalogue number of PCTC 255 (although the cassette was TC-PCS 3077!) BUT inexplicably this first official OFFICIAL release was NOT d in any way.
            (Can anyone from E.M.I. out there reading this offer an explanation ?!)
            Consequently, the only U.K. issue of this album failed to chart.
            It should also be noted that this 1976 edition used the same masters as the original U.S. release, and therefore some tracks were still in mono ... BUT ... another bizarre E.M.I. move ... the cassette DID have "Baby. You're A Rich Man" in stereo.

            In 1978 a "gold" vinyl edition was released.
