Vinyl enthusiasts regularly drop thousands of dollars on stereo equipment so they can experience the purest possible sound, but one hardcore Beatles fan just invested more than $12,000 in a remarkably rare turntable that will probably never even be used.
WhatSellsBest reports that a 1964 NEMS Beatles Record Player, offered in near-mint condition with all its original parts intact, was recently offered by a well-known memorabilia dealer on eBay with a starting price of 99 cents. Twenty-nine bids later, the turntable found its new home — at a final price of $12,100. As the article points out, these record players were one of the earliest pieces of licensed Beatles merchandise — and given that they were manufactured in a limited run of 5,000, it’s extremely rare to find one that’s been this well-preserved. The player’s vendor acknowledged as much in the listing, which read in part, “Folks, this one is it! Top 10 Ringo Starr Beatles Songs. Infographic Detailing Song Authorship.
The Recording of Hey Jude. Trident Studios, St Anne’s Court, London Producer: George Martin Engineer: Barry Sheffield Following two days of rehearsals and rough takes, The Beatles finally began recording Hey Jude properly.
The session took place from 2pm-4am at Trident Studios at 17 St Anne’s Court, London.

“Mr. Moonlight” (true stereo mix of take 4) Welcome to the Beatles Rarity of the Week.
To say the first half of 1964 was a busy time for The Beatles would likely go down as the understatement of the year. I cannot imagine how they managed to tour the world, guest on countless television appearances, make over 40 recorded live performances for BBC radio, put out their A Hard Day’s Night LP, and still manage to star in their first feature film of the same title. And the year was only half over, with no letting up in sight. Not only were they contractually bound, but the worldwide demand for Beatles music at this point in our history was so high that they knew they had to get another album out soon.
