Another Week Another Vinyl: The Beatles: The Magical Mystery Tour

So I'm back in Jersey and back to my local record store. The selection had seemed to improve from the last time I visited, around two weeks ago. I was finding a number of strong albums which ultimately led me to purchasing two instead of sticking to my vow of buying just one a week. It would be too big of a risk to allow those gems to sit in there for a whole week, they would have certainly been gone by the time I came back. So I ended up buying The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour and David Bowie's Changes album. The Magical Mystery Tour has some great packaging with a pretty thick little book on the inside which details the entire story of the Magical Mystery Tour as well as some great photos taken from the production of the movie. Some of the pages are falling out in my copy but overall it's in pretty decent shape and it plays alright with some minor skipping and a bit of hissing and crackling. It's certainly one of The Beatles finest works, but then again, what isn't after Rubber Soul?

Also, I may just skip actually taking pictures of the actual album because my brother doesn't seem to want to return my camera...
