Besides selling sheet music, we also sell Beatles albums. These records are used by Upstream Music for research on all worldwide pressings. This is for research for a book that the publisher is doing.
The record here for sale is one of those!
This special edition of Help! was produced for Shell to kick off their "Shell helps" campaign in 1979. As part of this promotion, Shell arranged that a small number of these special versions of Help from The Beatles was produced to be given as a gift to their Dutch distributors and store managers. Less than 2000 copies were printed - so unless you were a Shell distributor or store manager in 1979 you could not get it anywhere!
All covers for this album were produced in the Netherlands, but some copies of the vinyl were pressed in Sweden. There are different views / ideas on the Swedish edition: Some say there are about 1,000 copies in each country were printed, some say that a minority of copies in Sweden was printed. We have already had several copies in our hands and examined the for our research. Here the division between Swedish and Dutch vinyl was proportionate.
Never before and never after one of the official albums has been subject to such artwork revision for a commercial promotion by another company. It is unclear how and whether Shell has succeeded in getting permission of The Beatles!
