Comments and Reviews


GimmeVinyl 8th Sep 2020		Ok Beatlemaniacs.. uploaded pics of the label of the pressing that I own. As you can see, on side 2, my copy lists She Loves You as BMI, which makes it a later Scranton second pressing.



GimmeVinyl 26th Dec 2019		It may not really belong here.. but here's a cool pic of my copy playing on my ol' Dual 1219 turntable. Why didn't someone mention that she's so dusty?



GimmeVinyl 30th Nov 2019		My copy... Which is definitely a Scranton pressing from 64.. lists She Loves You as BMI... My label is not pictured!!



Record Collector 24th Sep 2015		I seen this album in JB hi fi to toss up which one to get so I chosen with the Beatles



Neil Forbes 24th Sep 2015		Oh dear, RC! By saying I was "concerned" about the photo grouping simply meant I was drawing attention to the three different albums from three(or four, if you include England) different countries that used the same photo grouping.



Record Collector 24th Sep 2015		Neil you don't need to be concerned about anything it's an American album so it's nothing for you to worry about



Neil Forbes 24th Sep 2015		It's not the content of the record(s) I'm concerned with here, RC, it's the use of the photo grouping on the following LPs: Second Album(USA/UK[likely different track listing on US version]), Long Tall Sally(Canada) and Big Beat Of The Beatles(Rhodesia). These three and some others share the same photo grouping on the front cover.



Record Collector 24th Sep 2015		As You may noticed the tracks aren't the original mixes



Neil Forbes 24th Sep 2015		They used the photo grouping on a Canadian LP, Long Tall Sally and two others from the USA and Rhodesia so this photo grouping has had a lot of exposure.



Record Collector 24th Sep 2015		I bet this and rest right to Sargent pepper fooled a lot of American teens



Neil Forbes 24th Sep 2015		There's that photo grouping again! They really flogged it at Capitol, both in Canada and the USA!



Neil Forbes 11th Sep 2015		Dull, yes! Original?.... Hmmmm..... Jury's still out!



Record Collector 11th Sep 2015		A very dull name for a album don't you think



dr.pepper1952 4th May 2015		added an early pressing / Ringo Starr under George Harrison



kab2112 SUBS 26th Apr 2015		Gold Disc scan added



Gizmobob 12th Apr 2015		The 1st Pressings have no times listed for the first two songs on side-2, and track two is credited to ASCAP (Earliest Pressings erroneously list last track on Side-1 as 2:23, instead of 2:33)(EC and WC, Mono and Stereo have been confirmed) The 2nd Pressings have the time added to the first 2 tracks on side-2. Earliest pressings credit track #2 and #5 to ASCAP, whereas later pressings change track #5 to BMI credit .(Only released on the EC in Mono and Stereo) The 3rd Pressings have the time added to track-1 only, and track-2 changed to BMI. Earliest pressing misspells "I Call You Name".(Released on the EC in Stereo Only)(2 label variations) The 4th Pressings have first two tracks credited to BMI, but no time listed for either (Released on the WC and Jax in Stereo Only) You'll note that there is only one West Coast Mono Label Variation, and no label with times for either song have been found on a West Coast Pressing.



BEATLEJOHN 18th Jul 2014		......added second pressing Keystone/Scranton labels which add times and publishing agency of side two's first two songs (and if Diogenes had the side two label for the Columbia pressing, we'd know which one that one was!)...The LA/Bert-co labels come with both variations too...John



W.B.lbl 29th Jun 2014		As, by the way, is the font used for the A6 song title, rights society and running time. It would appear {Image #530373} was a contract pressing by one of the Columbia plants (Pitman, NJ or Terre Haute, IN), being as the larger ring appears to be 2.703125" in diameter; vs. Capitol's own Scranton pressing with 1.5" pressing ring {Images #489277 & 489278}.



TheJudge 28th Jun 2014		A-side variant uploaded: layout is the same, but the ring ridge is different.
