THE BEATLES
Nowhere Man
Original 1965 1st Press EP!
This auction is for a very rare, original 1965 1st press of the Beatles EP 'Nowhere Man'
EPs were an interesting format back in the '60s. It offered a small selection of songs from the latest album that a fan could buy if they couldn't afford the album, or could be bought almost like a teaser to advertise the album it came from.
Back in the early '60s this was a popular format and the early Beatles EPs can be found everywhere. However, as time progressed to the mid '60s, the format lost a lot of favour and, by the time the Nowhere Man EP was issued in 1965, it was an near-obsolete format. Sales were really low for Nowhere Man and only managed to reach number 5 in the EP charts, dropping back out entirely after just 18 weeks.
Due to how poorly the EP sold at the time, it is now incredibly hard to find today!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.
