Comments and Reviews

walk2013 SUBS 25th Apr 2023		The issue dates to this LP and its mono equivalent do not seem right. July 10 is when they were released in the UK. July 11 issue of BB reports that within four days after the release already a million copies had been sold. UA had made that statement on July 1. Therefore the issue date given on wikipedia (June 26) appears to be correct. Beatle buffs to the front!
Gizmobob 15th Jan 2022		Can someone help me determine my sealed copy of AHDN? It has 3 lines of Publishing Credit on the back with only This Boy (MACLEN). Lastly, it has the "Released Thru Alun Owen" and "Screenplay By United Artists" reversed (SC22). Yet everything I read says that the 3 lines of publishing credit for This Boy only are 1964, First Pressing covers, but, "Released Thru" & "Screenplay By" Error has only been listed on later covers with the 4 lines of Publishing Credits. Can someone shed some light on this for me? Thanks, Bob
BEATLEJOHN 19th Apr 2021		Finally added bright red original front cover....John
rob2553 29th Jun 2019		Added images of a slight variant of the "sunrise" label - this version does not have the word "stereo" on it between the side and label numbers.
W.B.lbl 9th Nov 2015		Actually, in order, {Images #880854 & 880855} should come before {Images #489114 & 489115}. The errant "Tell Me Who" on the beige and brown label had the rim print show "United Artists Records, Inc.," as opposed to "United Artists Music And Records Group, Inc." Incidentally, all "Tell Me Who" copies, regardless of label, were typeset by Progressive Label & Litho of Brooklyn, NY.
TopPopper 8th Nov 2015		Shuffleded.
TheDroid 8th Nov 2015		Added another tan label variant which includes track A2 being misspelled as "Tell Me Who".
W.B.lbl 24th Oct 2015		Looks right for now (pending future additions, of course) . . . ;-)
TopPopper 24th Oct 2015		Thanks for the info W.B.lbl. Correct order now?
W.B.lbl 24th Oct 2015		In terms of sequential order, the labels should be: 1) {Images #867843 & 867844} (1964 original from Columbia Records' Pitman, NJ plant) 2) {Images #634996 & 634998} (1968-69 West Coast pressing with Alco Research & Engineering typesetting) 3) {Images #489114 & 489115} (1975-77 variant) 4) {Images #478246 & 478247} (1978 label) As for the cover, the front {Image #490112} should be first, followed by the back cover {Image #867842} which in order clearly precedes {Images #489113 & 478245}.
TheDroid 24th Oct 2015		Added early United Artists label set. Also added a third version of the back cover with different publishing information type under Lennon and McCartney's names.
