Tracklisting & More Information

This curiosity has unique black & silver labels that are similar to the Black & Yellow UK varieties, but with a different Parlophone logo and the title and band name above the centre hole.
The vocalists are listed before the composer credit.
Both sleeve & label have the 'Dr. Robert' spelling.
The sleeve also resembles the UK version but had a mid size 'MONO' on the front and 'Record Pressed for or by a Registered User' and 'Artone' credit on the back.

Condition:

The sleeve shows several small creases at the corners with a little laminate shrinkage leading to a bit of curl & lift at the spine, though nothing extreme. There is some distressing at the opening and a little edge scuffing, but surprisingly little general shelfwear. All in all it could be a lot worse.

The vinyl is unusual in that the matrix for side one is listed simly as 'XEX 605' where side two is listed as 'XEX 606-1' which, of course, is the version that was hastily withdrawn from sale for having Mix 11 of Tomorrow Never Knows instead of the more familiar Mix 8 found on the 'XEX 606-2' matrix pressings.
Upon playtesting, the vinyl does exhibit a degree of constant background noise, which is not to be unexpected for an item of this age from Southern Africa. Visually, there are several light scuffs, although no deep scratches and nothing that affects play.

Not mint, no, but a very acceptable copy of this extremely rare first South African pressing with the withdrawn mix 11 of Tomorrow Never Knows at an advantageous price.
