Detail : | The Beatles fourth official E.P. This contained two tracks from their latest L.P. "With The Beatles", and yet two more tracks from "Please Please Me" ... both of which were B-sides of previous singles.
Although this was not by any means the first issue of any of the tracks, this E.P. once again made the singles chart
reaching number 12 during it's three month stay. I am sure though, that "All My Loving" would have done far better in the
singles chart had it been released in just that format.
The cover design is again from the latest L.P. artwork with a picture by Robert Freeman, and yet again, the sleeve notes are by Tony Barrow.
Finally, how do you spot original pressings ? ....
The sleeve also has marked differences. For starters (surprisingly !) the quality of new editions is worse, which suggests
that EMI copied old sleeves rather than the actual photos ! ... I could demonstrate this with my copy of "A Hard Days Night",
I have an original and a newer edition, and it is astonishing how much worse the newer one is ! |
