 | sladesounds Turning rebellion into money since 1962 Member since Nov 2009 6566 Points Moderator | According to the other site and a few other internet sources this could be an Israel issue but we would need to see the scans to perhaps work it out correctly.

 | TopPopper Member since Mar 2013 2612 Points | I'm not aware of a Parlophone edition. It could be one of those cases where the wrong labels were used by mistake, like here - so it's really an Apple record with Parlophone branding. |

 | PhilMH🍰 Member since Jan 2012 1055 Points | Wasn't there a period starting sometime in the late 70s (1977?) when The Beatles' (group and solo) efforts on Apple were reissued on Parlophone (or Capitol in the US), following Apple's move into administration or whatever? I have just looked in my 1984 edition of Music Master, and this album, along with the White Album, Abbey Road and Let It Be, are all shown as being on Parlophone. Also, I don't think the Parlophone copy is an Israeli issue, because the 1E at the beginning of the second catalogue number is one of EMI's country codes for the UK, according to the EMI page in Discogs. |

| PhilMH🍰 Member since Jan 2012 1055 Points | P.S. the Israeli version in Discogs doesn't have the 1E at the start of the second catalogue number. |

I don't think so. They were always techincally Parlophone releases - the Beatles were signed to Parlophone all along - but used Apple labels on the records. I don't think anything which originally came out with Apple labels was re-issued with Parlophone labels. I think the cassettes maybe dropped their Apple logo for a while, but not LPs. |

Ah missed that! What country does 1E stand for - with all the EMI Country codes I have 1E doesn't show. |

| PhilMH🍰 Member since Jan 2012 1055 Points | EMI country codes list copied from Discogs - 1E is UK. The EMI country codes (introduced on 1 June, 1969): In most cases the EMI Codes are the first two letters of the record's catalog#. These EMI Country Codes were used to indicate the country in which the record was pressed. Note this doesn't necessarily means the record was also released in that country. Please enter this catalogue number against whichever label is branded on the release. OC = UK 0C = UK 1A = Holland 1C = Germany 1E = UK 1J = Spain 2C = France 2E = Austria 2J = Greece 3C = Italy 3E = Switzerland 4B, 4C = Belgium 4E = Sweden 5C = Holland 5E = Finland 6C = Denmark 6E = Denmark 7C = Sweden 7E = Norway 8E = Portugal 9C = Finland 10C = Spain 11C = Portugal 12C = Austria 13C = Switzerland 14C = Greece 16C = Australia (unused on releases) 17C = New Zealand (unused on releases) 31C = Brazil 33C = Mexico |

 | Magic Marmalade If you're not lost... It's not an adventure! Member since Jun 2014 3745 Points Moderator | Why is the album title: "Ram", inside the Parlophone box? Is the label print pissed too? (Dare I suggest it looks a bit fishy) |

| Dr Doom SUBS I wanna eat an artichoke once in a while Member since Feb 2008 25248 Points Administrator | Well I can confirm that the record does exist. To be honest I'm not sure if the wonkiness is my photo or the actual label. Think it must be the label though. I didn't get a loan of the album to do proper scans, just a photo using my phone. As far as he could tell the sleeve was exactly the same as the regular Apple pressing. His theory is that it's some kind of export issue or at a push a pressing plant couldn't get hold of the Apple labels (for whatever reason) and knocked these out in a hurry. We may never know but I can confirm that it's not some photoshop mock up.  |

| TopPopper Member since Mar 2013 2612 Points | That's my hunch too - using blank Parlophone labels as a work-around as proper Apple labels were not available. I am not aware of any of these albums being legitimately released on Parlophone, although it's fun to see this one. |

| Jock_Girl A girl who looks good in vinyl Member since Dec 2012 1544 Points Moderator | Whilst I am certain that the record exists and is not a counterfeit item or even a photoshop, somehow I feel that it is one of those 'created collectibles" like these The Beatles - Canadian experimental pressings Amy |
