The Beatles – Abbey Road (Vinyl LP, 1969, Apple Records SO-383, US Jacksonville Pressing, Capitol Subsidiary Text)

Why This Record Matters
Abbey Road is The Beatles’ 1969 studio album, featuring “Come Together,” “Something,” “Here Comes The Sun,” and the extended Side B medley. Produced by George Martin, it was the final album recorded by the group and remains one of their best-known studio releases.

Collector Note
This 1969 US Apple Records SO-383 stereo edition was pressed at Capitol Records’ Jacksonville plant, identified by the “O” markings in the supplied runouts. This variation has the Capitol logo at the bottom of the Side 2 Apple label, lists “Her Majesty” on both the label and sleeve, and uses the earlier cover image where part of the square street-access lid remains visible beneath the right-center crosswalk stripe. The supplied SO 1 383 F42 #1 O / SW 2 383 A18 #2 O matrices identify Variant 2 of this Jacksonville configuration, making the pressing details considerably more specific than a general US Abbey Road copy.
