I can’t watch too many of these unboxings in a row. I start to hyperventilate!
this man could narrate my life
I actually watch his videos when I go to sleep each night...not because I'm bored of the subject matter, but because hearing his voice talking about my favourite band helps me relax before bed 😂
Up until recent years, records from the UK, EU and Japan were usually shipped without packaging (shrink wrap or loose baggies). Upon arrival in the states they were shrink wrapped or placed in loose baggies at the distribution point.
It's almost unreal that these are still sealed. Like, wow. Insane that they look that good as well.
Thank you for getting straight into the video without those unnecessary long intros others would do👌🏼
In my years of collecting ive never found anything like this, only sealed records i come across are old classical music records, this is just amazing
I hope you understand that these LP's came to the US unsealed. They received a baggie upon arrival at the local distributer in the US. UK, Japan as well as other countries did not shrink-wrap or otherwise protect LP's. This practice continued through the 1990's and into the early 21st century
it's because no one opened them
UK Albums were not sealed when they were sold in the 60's. (I bought them!)
You are correct. However, the copies in the video were exported to the U.S. and sealed for retail there.
I was going to say that. LOL
@@Parlogram They were sealed by someone outside of Parlophone. Not by them. I have been a Beatle collector for over 40 years. I have 1st pressings from all over the world. I even have the Beatles released on 78 rpm from India. I ordered records from the UK and they never were sealed. A resealable bag was used but no shrink wrap.
@@blu3collar949 dont apologize bluecollar this guy is a unboxing obsessed toss pot
@@throwgillardout false. He does beautifully produced videos on ultra rare Beatles stuff, and later sells it on his website.
Wow, I’d love to know more about where these sealed/untouched LPs have been for 50 years, are they found relatively recently in a dusty storage room having never been sold? I find it hard to imagine someone buying them in 68/69 as collectors items rather than just to play and enjoy! Thanks for the video Andrew 🙂
it does,just like those manipulators nowadays
Amazing.
That sealed stereo A Hard Day's Night LP could also possibly be a one EMI box pressing from December of 1969 because the first three albums and Help did have a small stereo on the front cover for the early one box pressings. My one box pressing of A hard's night did have a small stereo logo on the front just like that sealed copy you have.
Great music
Where did you found thise bc I want to have original pressings
I think it’s amazing that you can found this so well treated after all those years
Just go on Discogs; there's a section for each pressing, with available copies from various sellers. (Expect to pay a high amount though for nice-condition 1st pressings!)
Find.
Looks like they are later 60's re-issues judging by the size of the stereo logo on the front covers. Not worth as much as the 1st pressings
I remember these when they where first released, when a good wage was £15 to £20 a week. According to the Bank of England inflation calculator, that's about £100 for a copy in todays money.
Great find!
Can I also request another video...an in depth look at those weird South African only Apple singles!! What was that all about????
Danny
Sure Danny, If I can find them!
@@Parlogram There are details in the Apple Facebook group (I was banned from that group for making Yoko Ono Jokes!) LOL!!
Danny
@@TheWalrusWasDanny How many Yokos does it take to screw in lightbulb? Was that the joke you got booted for?
@@CBrolley No it was a comment about a Japanese Only Lp called "The Many Sides Of YO"...I said "I thought there were only two sides...the out of tune one and the screeching one"..so they banned me.
I seem to remember some of the original MONO LPs from the early 60s were pretty poor pressings. 'With The Beatles' was a good (or bad) example of this. When I re-bought them all in STEREO later on, they were much better.
The UK editions from that time wouldn’t have been in any kind of plastic wrapping. Those bags have been put on at the shop as part of the dealer’s attempt to prevent records being returned which have played.
Looks like used records that were sealed later. They would be cleaner covers imo if sealed from new.
Good point.
How do you clean a cover? I really don't know and I would like to clean some cover art of my small vinyl collection, but I don't know if there is products to clean paper (or cardboard)... Thanks!
@ If a cover is laminated I use baby wipes, taking care first that there are no cracks in the laminate. As with anything, treat a small area first. For covers that are not laminated do not use anything wet. A dry and clean cloth with light rubbing may work.
@@russellthechemist8291 Thank you so much!
Most enjoyable, thanks dude.
My pleasure!
Hi Andrew. Been really enjoying your channel recently. Would love to hear your thoughts someday on the topic of keeping LPs sealed vs. deciding to open them up. If I came in possession of these albums, I would feel so torn between keeping them pristine, and opening them up to hear the superb quality of the vinyl inside. Thanks!
Thanks for watching the channel, Riley. I like to keep vintage albums sealed. If I want to listen, it's usually easy to find an unsealed copy to play.
When I bought LP's in the 60's in the UK they were in plastic covers to stop finger marks, if you bought one they took the cover off..
Great channel bro.
What a find!!!
I wasn't aware that records from the U.K. came sealed in plastic wrap from the factory. Every import I ever bought came in those Jem poly-bags. These look like they were done in the U.S. by someone with those heat sealers.
They were shipped from the UK unsealed. The shrink/bags were added by the U.S. retailers/distributors.
I'm still looking for Beatles For Sale. I would like a UK Help too. But one thing at a time...
Enjoy video !!!
This must've cost a fortune
I picked up a copy of Help today, it has the Mono outlined word top right but underneath the Mono you can see a faint stereo outline word...Has anyone any info on this ? Cheers....
Who is your source for getting these boxes
Hi my friend
Can you do a video on the Beatles
LP Mono and stereo of the EMI one box
And EMI to box the silver on black please Dave.
Недавно привез из Чикаго 6 синглов первого пресса любимой группы. Кайф полнейший!
Ok so what INSANE AMOUNT OF MONEY! did you pay for this lot then?
ninjabluewings I think people send them in so they can be sold.
They're newer pressings, as the 'Stereo' is way smaller and a different font than on the original pressings.
How much did you sell these for? Or are they not sold yet? How much?
I hope they are all sealed but you got to watch out for fakes. With the technology today the labels are easily facked.
How much did this collection cost?
No idea, I was selling them on behalf of a client.
Do NOT unseal....after 50 years, might as well leave them be....
Actually this is wrong. They were not originally sealed in the UK. They were sent here and sealed elsewhere. The value for them would not be any higher than an open copy of the same grade. How do I know? I wrote the guide to collecting records.
@@blu3collar949 which guide did you write blue. link me
What will they sound like if you play them on a good turntable without removing them from the jacket?
no Beatles albums were ever sealed from UK until 2018
It's like watching Indiana Jones find the Ark of the covenant😮
Did Decca records ever sealed Rolling Stones albums in the 60s?
No. Records were not sold sealed in the UK until the '70s and then only by a few retailers. The sealed copies in this video, as with all other sealed 60's LP imports, arrived stateside unsealed and were sealed by U.S. retailers.
@@Parlogram Oh got it. Thank you mate! well appreciated!
Cheers! Noah :)
the beaties
So late 60s pressings. Worth 100 to 150 dollars US?
Does it play okY
Most of these are not original pressings but Beatles for sale maybe
ArchiveofAwesomeness1886 most likely a black and silver parlophone press
I am not sure when , but the entire Parlophone catalog was released in the states. It was sometime in the 90s. They were not imports from the UK however. They were pressed in LA, Ca.
Sealed! ...So What! Just unseal them and enjoy the music!
The music can be enjoyed very easily elsewhere without losing the museum-piece aspect that these sealed ones have.
Niles Harilie I got a original Japanese pressing of the Hey Jude compilation from 1969 in mint condition! AND I STILL PLAYED IT! And on the same day I got an original Japanese pressing A Day At The Races by Queen from 1976 in mint condition! And I still played it! What’s the point of getting records if you are not going to play them?
You win dumbest reply award!
NicholasIsLookingThroughAGlassOnion 64 ... because sealed pressings of these records are almost impossible to find, and quite valuable ... what I like to call “play copies” are easy to find!
Peter Burbank It’s not like it was some gold Parlophone Label is mint condition! I’m sure the mint records I got aren’t to to valuable! They were both about 50 dollars at a record fair so I’m sure it’s fine
How much did these cost you
I hope the records are still flat after all those years been sealded
If you do not get their first album Please Please Me in MONO it won't be worth listening to.
Me dio envidia.
Original 1960s...but in Stereo?
Im afraid you have some represses
I bet you didnt heard any of beatles songs in your house cause all your records is sealed
GIMMICKS FIRST RATE 60S ALBUMS WERE NOT SEALED IN THE UK LET ALON THAT WAY .WE KNOW A THING OR TWO ABOUT ORIGINAL UK ALBUMS

Which tracks are "fake stereo"?
