Description
The BEATLES. 45 rpm vinyl record. To own this Promo song on 45 you must either own the Original Promo, or this Bootleg Promo!! And the 3 minute version with the piccolo ending is mandatory for any Beatles collection!! This is the first copy I bought to fulfill that need. It has the piccolo ending!! Vinyl Condition is Goldmine EX. Vinyl lightly scuffed, very shiny, and labels clean with no flaws. See photos. 6th photo shown is of original Penny Lane Promo label. 2 of which are on eBay today for over $400 each!!! WOW. (And that’s overpriced by double, I think). But this is Still a SUPER Collectable. One of 3 Beatles Capitol USA Yellow (or Yellow-Green)label Promo singles from 1967-1968. But this has the ONLY promo song that was released then remixed prior to its official release, so the ending is different. The Penny Lane Promo came into such demand that it was bootlegged more than once! It even had Bootlegged Picture Sleeves. This one comes with one!! Notice the inner flaps are extra wide, about a full inch. Normal inner flaps are about 1/2 inch. See any other 60s Capitol picture sleeve. Note: other signs of a bootleg are the lack of an asterisk in the runoff inner vinyl (it symbolized the record was pressed in LA), and the words “in” and “by” regarding George Martin are normally at the beginning of their lines, but on this bootleg they come at the end. Also the issue letter “P” is in a skinny font compared to usual heavy font matching the numbers. That’s the easiest way to spot this particular press of this Penny Lane Boot!! Compare it to Photo 6, an original! This Promo is STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER and PENNY LANE. 2 songs intended for the Sgt Peppers LP, but they took so long to produce that the Beatles had gone 6 months since their last single so they released it early and did 13 other tracks for the album. Penny Lane Promo Version is Number 54 on my Beatles Hard to Find Songs on 45 Single Worldwide List. SFF is common. Request a copy of my Top 100 Hard to Find Beatles songs worldwide on 45 list, if interested. Both sides here are MONO. Request my List of 150 Beatles Songs in Stereo worldwide on 45 Singles, if interested. Most reissues stayed Mono if they started Mono. BUT NOT ALL. There are some major Capitol Beatles Stereo surprises on reissue singles. See photos of this one. Actual record (except photo 6). Comes in Common white sleeve, and with bootleg Picture Sleeve shown. I am a 50+ year Beatles collector. Item Shipped with USPS Media Mail and Global Shipping Program. Multiple purchases all ship for $5 total. Browse for others! Best. Beatle Lew.
