Okay, here’s mine so far. They’re pretty much all in stereo, and I’m not really sure if they’re first pressings or not… A lot of these are inherited from my dad by the way.
Meet The Beatles
Rubber Soul (American)
Revolver (American)
All You Need Is Love (single)
Abbey Road (first part of side two is scratched up pretty bad)
1962-1966 (The Red Album )
1967-1970 (The Blue Album , very beginning of side 3 is scratched)
The Beatles 1st Live Recordings Vol. 1
The Beatles Historic Sessions
Rarities
Two Virgins (Somewhat ashamed to admit I own this one)
Shaved Fish
London Town (No poster)
Wings Greatest (With poster)
All Things Must Pass (No poster, but first pressing!)
Extra Texture (Read All About It)
33 & 1/3
Overall, I think I’m doing pretty well, though I really want Sgt. Pepper …

I also recommend The Beatles (AKA the White Album ), some of their best songs are on there (“Back In The U.S.S.R.”, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps “, “Happiness Is A Warm Gun “, “Yer Blues “, “Revolution 1 “, “Dear Prudence “, the list goes on). My only flaw with it is that they should’ve replaced Can You Take Me Back, Revolution 9 , and Good Night with Hey Jude .

Yeah, I love the White Album . It’s actually my favorite Beatles album! I really want that on vinyl too, but it seems harder to find than Sgt. Pepper . I might just get reproductions of both.

They’re originals, belonged to my parents except for Revolver which was the first LP I ever owned, I was seven or so years old. I didn’t “get rid of” them. A lot went with my bio father in the divorce.

Thinking about it, if there’s one thing I like about the US releases over the UK releases (besides they’re what I grew up with) is that they include songs like “She Loves You “, “I Want To Hold Your Hand “, and “Hey Jude “, whereas in the UK, you have to buy the single, which therefore makes you think the albums are nothing but filler. Who’s stupid idea was that, I’d sure like to tell him that it’s messed up. Also, I kind of like how Beatles 65′ took out most of the more rocky-ish songs and replaced them with “I’ll Be Back “.

Other than never owning a Butcher cover, I bought all the Canadian Capitol records in the early 70’s after I fell in love with the Red Album . Now they are all gone.
Bought the 2009 stereo CD set and sold it. Still have the 2009 mono set, not sure why, I don’t play CDs anymore.
Bought the 2012 stereo LP set, sold it but kept the black box.
A Couple of years ago, I went on a mission buying all the UK original “mono” Parlophone LPs, EPs & Singles, and of course the Apple records, White Album , Yellow Submarine , Abbey Road & Let It Be . Took me 2 years, ‘cause I ain’t rich!

I need to add, my mom has a “trunk” cover Yesterday And Today. I mentioned in the Butcher Cover thread that I was reticent to peel it and see if it’s a pasted over Butcher. I don’t think it is, now anyway looking at what someone in that thread said to look for.
So that’s four LPs here.

Okey dokey, here’s what I’ve got so far:
Beatles
LPs
– The White Album , 1968 pressing (with both posters )
– Sgt. Pepper (gray-pink marbled vinyl; I’m guessing that it’s from the late seventies, but I’m not sure)(Edit: It also has the cutouts intact. No clue how I forgot to mention that. )
– Rock ‘N’ Roll Music Vol. 2
– Revolver (reissue)
– Revolver (German pressing; it has Apple labels so I’m assuming it’s from the seventies or eighties or somewhere around then)
– 1962-1966 (original pressing)
– 1967-1970 (original pressing; this one is really interesting, as the second record (side 3 & 4) have the correct music on them, but side 4 has the side 2 label on it. Weird )
45s
– My Bonnie /The Saints (Canadian pressing)
Paul
LPs
– Band On The Run (original; with Helen Wheels, and it has all the photo-sheet-thingies )
George
45s
– All Those Years Ago/Writing’s on the Wall
– This Song/Learning How to Love You
Also Beatley I Suppose:
– Julian’s Valotte (original pressing)
I’ll come back and update when necessary, of course.

I know this is a weird question to ask, but do you remember The Beatles when they were around. From the information you’re telling me, it’s safe to assume you were born anywhere from 1958-1967 (my guess is 1965, but you’re the one to know). I was born in 1963 and remember The Beatles fondly (mostly from their TV show (what got me into them in the first place) and the Yellow Submarine movie, but also of the music) and the first album I bought was Paranoid by Black Sabbath when I was 8 years old.
Bought the 2009 stereo CD set and sold it. Still have the 2009 mono set, not sure why, I don’t play CDs anymore.
The only CD’s I’ve bought are blank ones because I like to get it off the internet and if I’m going to buy it, I want it on vinyl (don’t know what stupid drunk came up with the idea of ITunes AKA spend money on a digital file (someone must’ve gotten high)). Also, is it just me or does Steve Jobs like The Beatles.
Bought the 2012 stereo LP set, sold it but kept the black box.
You’re kidding me. You sold the records, but kept the box.
A Couple of years ago, I went on a mission buying all the UK original “mono” Parlophone LPs, EPs & Singles, and of course the Apple records, White Album , Yellow Submarine , Abbey Road & Let It Be . Took me 2 years, ‘cause I ain’t rich!
Impressive, what albums did you find in stereo. What I did with me and my older brother’s collection handed down from our mother (long story, pretty much I live with him because it’s hard to pay rent nowadays) is I got all the albums (Meet The Beatles, The Beatles Second Album, A Hard Day’s Night , Something New, The Beatles Story, Beatles 65′, The Early Beatles, Beatles VI, Help !, Rubber Soul , Yesterday And Today, Revolver , Sgt. Pepper ‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Magical Mystery Tour , The Beatles, Yellow Submarine , Abbey Road , Hey Jude , Let It Be , 1962-1966, 1967-1970, Rock And Roll Music , The Beatles At The Hollywood Bowl, and Anthology 1 -3 (bought by my older brother)) and we made homemade picture frames to put them on the wall and show off (we did the same with the singles too, I also have ones in my room for Black Sabbath (Black Sabbath, Paranoid, Master Of Reality, Volume 4, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Sabotage, We Sold Our Soul For Rock And Roll, Technical Ecstasy, Never Say Die, Heaven And Hell, The Mob Rules, Live Evil, and Born Again), Queen (Queen, Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack, A Night At the Opera, A Day At The Races, News Of The World, Jazz, Live Killers, The Game, and Flash Gordon), AC/DC (High Voltage (US), Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (US), Let There Be Rock (US), Powerage, Highway To Hell, For Those About To Rock (We Salute You), and 74′ Jailbreak), and Led Zeppelin (Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin III, Led Zeppelin IV, Houses Of The Holy, Physical Graffiti, Presence, The Song Remains The Same, In Through The Out Door, and Coda)). All of my friends thought it looked cool.

I’m impressed you have all the original posters, I have all the posters too (not in the sleeve, but you get the point). Sadly, we actually cut out the Sgt. Pepper cutouts and used them as toys (I was 4 and my older brother was 5 at the time, so it made perfect sense to us then, plus, there weren’t a lot of Beatles toys in America (at least as far as I remember)). I still have the cutouts though, but there all cut up.

Too funny, you sound like me. Ya I was born in ’63. My 3 teenage sisters where Beatles nuts in the 60s, but I started liking them due to my older brother playing their records, so I had to have my own. They were all stereo except for the 1st 3 Canadian LPs were mono only. There was no stereo option with those 3.
And later on, I got into those heavier bands (Sabbath, Zeppelin etc, then Heavy metal in the 80’s). I had some 8-Tracks, but I got into making my own cassettes. Remember those? Then I burned my own CDs, like most people.
The reason I sold my 2009 stereo CDs, was because I had them all in iTunes and wasn’t playing them, and I hated those stupid stereo CD covers. Also sold off the Capitol CD box sets too.
The plan to collect the original UK LPs was the reason I sold off my 2012 LPs, and I knew that black box was a perfect place to store them, instead of an old record crate.
From what I’ve heard/read, Steve Jobs loved the Beatles and was thrilled when the controversy was over regarding the Apple name, and the Beatles finally agreed to release their stuff on iTunes. I’m glad they did, but I already had my Beatles CDS in iTunes before that finally happened anyways.
