THE BEATLES
"PENNY LANE /AND YOUR BIRD CAN SING STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER / I'M ONLY SLEEPING"
ODEON RECORDS Cat# GEOS 265
Very rare, first (and only) issue pressed.
**********************************************************
This is a SUPERB copy of the RAREST SWEDISH (and probably ALL European) 4-track EP. The last 60s Extended Play originally pressed, and despite The band being extremely popular in Scandinavia and Worldwide - it somehow escaped notice ...and sales.
The two brilliant lead tracks were intended for the 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' album, which would have made it even more astonishing, but Penny Lane WAS issued as a 45 with Strawberry Fields Forever in Sweden, as well as there being a number of UK pressings in the custom paper sleeve. Since that sold well, this EP adding 2 excellent album tracks, would have had to be special ordered by Beatles fanatics.
The very cool cover photo is from that psychedelic promotional film shoot - and it's now a legendary rarity.
Few ever seen, i have only seen a couple other than this (not in such condition).
Condition;
The VINYL is in NEAR MINT shape, just paper 'spider web' surface marks faintly visible - plays GREAT and sounds superb!
The LABLES are NEAR MINT centre intact and with no stickers or tears.
The LAMINATED PICTURE COVER is NM-, no writing or stickers, 1 tiny wrinkle only - flat, bright and clean!
A TOP rare Beatles collectable.
Please see photos.
