SIE LIEBT DICH/I’LL GET YOU
(SHE LOVES YOU)
DIE BEATLES - THE BEATLES
SWAN 4182
RELEASED: MAY 21,1964
(ACTUAL SCANS)
THIS CONDITION OF THIS PROMOTIONAL COPY IS A USED COPY DUE TO RADIO PLAYS AND GRADES AT A TOP VG. THE LABELS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION, HOWEVER, B0TH SIDE HAVE BEEN PLAYED DUE TO RADIO SPINS. BUT CONSIDERING IT IS NOW 51 YEARS OLD (PLEASE SEE THE SCANS) IT IS IN NICE CONDITION.
I HAVE PLAYED BOTH SIDES AND THEY PLAY LOAD WITH NO JUMPS AND MINIUM HISS, IN SUMMARY A FANTASTIC SOUND !!!.
DISC JOCKEY ADVANCE COPY, "PROMOTIONAL COPY" & "NOT FOR SALE" (SWAN 4182.DJ1B, SPIZER)
THERE IS A X MARKED ON PLUG SIDE ‘SIE LIEBT DICH (SHE LOVES YOU) FOR DJ SPIN SIDE, PLUS A UNIQUE RADIO STAMPED BOX ‘‘WAKE’ 134N In ATLANTA’’ STAMPED SEAL MARK !!
THE GERMAN-LYRIC RECORDING OF SIE LIEBT DICH WAS RECORDED BY THE BEATLES ON JANUARY 29, 1964 AND WAS ISSUED IN GERMANY ON THE ODEON LABEL IN MID MARCH 1964. ON OR ABOUT MAY 21, 1964, SWAN RELEASED A SINGLE PAIRING SIE LIEBT DICH (SHE LOVES YOU) WITH THE SAME MASTER RECORDING OF I'LL GET YOU THAT SERVED AS THE B-SIDE TO SHE LOVES YOU. THE RECORD LISTS THE GROUP AS "DIE BEATLES" ON ITS A-SIDE LABEL.
SWAN WAS HOPING THAT THE NOVELTY OF HEARING THE BEATLES SING IN GERMAN WOULD BE ENOUGH TO OBTAIN RADIO AIR PLAY AND SALES. IT WASN'T, FOR IT DIPPED TO NUMBER 97 BEFOR DISAPPEARING FROM THE BILLBOARD CHARTS. FURTHERMORE, SWAN HAD THE RIGHTS TO THE SPECIFIC MASTER RECORDINGS, BUT NOT THE SONGS THEMSELVES AND WERE SUED BY CAPITOL RECORDS. SWAN SETTLED THE LAWSUIT, AND THE SETTLEMENT KILLED ANY CHANCE OF SIE LIEBT DICH BECOMING A HIT IN THE U.S. THIS EXPLAINS THE RECORD'S RELATIVE SCARCITY.
THIS STELLAR MONARCH PRESSING OF THE PROMOTIONAL DISC IS PRESSED IN STYRENE AND HAS VIRTUE STUDIO HAND ETCHED MARKINGS INCLUDING THE JOB NUMBERS HAND ETCHED IN THEIR TRAIL OFF AREAS. THE A/B SIDE HAS "PROMOTIONAL COPY" IN THE RIGHT HAND SIDE. PLUS "DON'T DROP OUT" PRINT IS ALSO THERE IN THE UPPER LEFT, AS IT IS ON ALL OF THE WHITE LABEL COPIES OF THIS RELEASE.
THE CONDITION OF THE VINYL IS A PLAYED RADIO COPY WITH GROOVES THAT DISPLAY NO JUMP & MINIUM HISS, THE VINYL LABEL ARE STILL SHINY, HOWEVER, THEY SHOW SIGNS OF MINIUM WORN MARK, PLUS POINTS; INCLUDE CLEAR READABLE FONTS, WHICH HAVE NOT BEEN AFFECTED OVER IT’S 51 YEARS OF RADIO YEARS STORAGE !!!
PLEASE BID WITH CONFIDENCE, I HAVE BEEN A BEATLES COLLECTOR FOR OVER 20 YEARS, AND HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO UPGRADE THESE COLLECTABLE PIECES OF MUSIC HISTORY HERITAGE GEMS. THIS BEATLES RARE COLLECTABLE IS A 'WISE INVESTMENT, FOR YOUR CHILDREN OR GRANDCHILDREN, THE BEATLES WILL ALWAYS REMAIN, MODERN PIECES OF ART & WILL ALWAYS RISE IN VALUE !!!
I HAVE STARTED BIDDING AT 99 PENCE & HAVE A LOW RESERVE, WHICH I THINK REFLECTS THIS FANTASTIC INVESTMENT, GOOD LUCK AND THANK YOU FOR BIDDING, MARK FTM x
