THE BEATLES RUBBER SOUL VERY 1ST PRESS RARE ORIGINAL UK 1965 PARLOPHONE LP PMC 1267

Product Information

Rubber Soul is a great album, but it might actually be a little under-appreciated. These days, Sgt. Pepper and Revolver (and more recently Abbey Road) get most of the praise, and a lot of fans think Rubber Soul should be right there with them. RUBBER SOUL war das erste „ernstere“ Album der Beatles. Die Alben bis Help! waren mehr oder weniger Sammlungen von Single-Hits mit immer demselben Thema. RUBBER SOUL war thematisch vielfältiger als jedes davor erschienene Pop-Album. Teilweise exotische Instrumente wie die Sitar wurden erstmals eingesetzt. Die Beatles übernahmen ab hier auch sukzessive die Kontrolle über das Studio.

IN MY LIFE ist der erste Song, den John Lennon über seine Kindheit geschrieben hat. Produzent George Martin spielte den von Bach inspirierten Mittelteil auf dem Klavier. Er nahm es in halber Geschwindigkeit auf und fügte es in doppelter Geschwindigkeit in den Song ein. a b Kronemyer, David (25 April 2009). "How Many Records Did the Beatles Actually Sell?".

[27] Music journalist Mark Ellen similarly credits the album with having "sow[ed] the seeds of psychedelia", [333] while Christgau says that "psychedelia starts here." [340] [nb 26] Writing in The Sydney Morning Herald in July 1966, Lillian Roxon reported on the new trend for psychedelia-themed clubs and events in the US and said that Rubber Soul was "the classic psychedelic album now played at all the psychedelic discotheques". She attributed pop's recent embrace of psychedelia and "many of the strange new sounds now in records" to the LP's influence. [341] Winn, John C. (2008).

[225] The rounded letters used on the sleeve established a style that became ubiquitous in psychedelic designs [224] and, according to journalist Lisa Bachelor, "a staple of poster art for the flower power generation".

At some point early on in the “Rubber Soul” pressing run, a Times New Roman font typeset was added to the label printing machines. It’s with this style that we find later one-side “Loud Cut” presses (as determined by the stampers), almost all the transition presses of XEX 579-1 / XEX 580-4 or XEX 579-4 / XEX 580-1.
