Whoah… Pet Sounds. That’s a record I’d like to have on vinyl. I have a couple copies of Sgt. Pepper . One of them is a picture disc.
As far as Beatles solo, I have…
John:
Double Fantasy (two copies. One still has the original shrink-wrap and a “contains the hit single (Just Like) Starting Over” sticker.)
Paul:
Give My Regards To Broad Street
George:
All Things Must Pass (two copies)
The Concert For Bangladesh (two copies)
Extra Texture (Read All About It)
Thirty Three & 1/3
The Best Of George Harrison (two copies, one US copy and one UK copy)
Ringo:
Ringo
Blast From Your Past
Ringo’s Rotogravure
I'm Necko. I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.
I'm also ewe2 on weekends.
Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

My first copy of Abbey Road was a terribly beat-up old copy that I bought for $0.25 at a yard sale or someplace like that. Full of skips, scratches and outright gouges. “Golden Slumbers ” was particularly bad – there were two spots where the vinyl groove was so badly marred that it made a high-pitched shrieking sound, almost like the tinny cry of a child’s talking doll. Weird thing is that both of those squeals came right after Paul sings “…do not cry…”, almost as if it were planned that way! For awhile, I wasn’t completely sure that they weren’t part of the song.
GEORGE: In fact, The Detroit Sound. JOHN: In fact, yes. GEORGE: In fact, yeah. Tamla-Motown artists are our favorites. The Miracles. JOHN: We like Marvin Gaye. GEORGE: The Impressions PAUL & GEORGE: Mary Wells. GEORGE: The Exciters. RINGO: Chuck Jackson. JOHN: To name but eighty.

Does anybody else have this?
It’s your standard compilation of Tony Sheridan recordings, some of which don’t feature The Beatles at all. I have two copies, though one of them is broken, cracked all the way through on the first track of each side.
I’ve also got another (I can’t remember what it’s called) that is the Decca audition (played at incorrect speeds) on one side and a Pete Best interview on side 2.
