Capitol Records Club was founded in 1958. Originally, their records were pressed in Scranton and offered up as only Capitol - related releases. Some people found these " selections of the month " to be useful, while others were annoyed by this practice - one which Capitol shared with the other record clubs (Columbia, RCA).
There are 8 Beatles Titles that were released with the Club...... (Help, Meet, Yesterday, Rubber, VI, Something, Second, Revolver). And here you have #1 Ranked Beatles' studio Album! All club's releases were deemed " NOT FOR SALE " and looked differently from the ones which were sent to the stores.Also, in some instances (Yesterday and Today, Revolver) the club release has had much BETTER sound than the original. To distinguish their Club's product Capitol has put THREE STRIPES (adidas like) in the top left corner on a front jacket. Also there is - 8 - was added for the catalog number. Both on a jacket and on a label.
Some invisible tape along the seams. Vinyl : VG + Play tested.Some visual hairlines/ light scratches. Its for sure much superior quality than a regular ST 2576 release....
