I'm a bit shy to post my first request here, but does anyone happen to have a decent rip of The Songs Lennon And McCartney Gave Away LP?
I've been assembling my Beatles LPs collection and I find this an essential listening but can't seem to find a genuine rip anywhere.
Purple Chick edition I have right now is a compilation of various sources, some of which are later stereo remixes, not the original single versiosn, let alone certain tracks have mixing errors and unbearable noise reduction.
If someone can offer a decent clean rip, I would be most grateful.
Thanks in advance

I've got these if you want them, although it will be a few days as I'm recovering from the Flu

If you're an audiophile, here's a really nice 24/96 vinyl rip by sonharte2 from 2019.
hxxps://mega.nz/file/RLxlyYLY#WN5VbJvg9 ... MvT4z33jbU
Various Artists – “The Songs Lennon And McCartney Gave Away”
Vinyl rip in 32 bits/192 kHz presented in 24 bits/96 kHz | FLAC | M | Artwork
973 MB | Classic Rock, Compilation | 1979 UK release
EMI NUT 18 (OC054-7003) | Original recordings 1963-1973 | Lacquer cut by Harry Moss
Here are some notes from the original ripper (sonharte2).
Deadwax info:
Side A: NUT 18 A – 1 HTM
Side B: NUT 18 B – 1
"I’ve got this used record relatively cheap (US$ 20.00) and it is impeccable, absolutely mint. Maybe it was my lucky day. The sound varies a bit, with only one song in reprocessed stereo (but it was easy to “re-mono-ize”). I was tempted to apply a bit of EQ in some tracks that are overly bright but resisted and didn’t do it. Twenty songs in an album is always a compromise for the mastering engineer, even if the songs are very short, as these are.
The bass suffers a bit, but maybe the original mixes have not that much bass. Anyway, UK engineers are used to put additional time on each side, so I hope you enjoy it."

I have downloaded the glassonion file twice and it won't let me download it because it contains a dangerous file or virus. This is the first time this has happened to me on the forum. I'm asking if it has happened to anyone else.
