Beetles cover Question.

by shane » Fri May 02, 2008 11:01 pm

Does anyone know if this is the right record for this cover?
Parlophone no.A-980, "Love Me Do" bonus 3 track EP.
Was it used for (this?) one title only, or a series of issues?

Interesting.

The photos on the jacket are a lot later than the release date of that song.

And it has no large hole.

What are the other two songs?

The other side has "I Feel Fine" & "Rock 'N' Roll Music". It's an EMI Australia pressing, and the cover also says EMI Australia. Australian 45's seldom have the large "jukebox" hole after about 1960. All the later disc's with the large hole that I have are all US or UK imports.
To me, the cover looks more like it's from the 70's, and may have contained a record on the Apple label, which were also pressed here by EMI sydney. I wonder if it may have been an Australia only cover??

This is from 1983 and the cover is right but the ones I've seen didnt have the hole cut out to display the label

...and by the way...this was actually a free bonus disc that you got when you bought the LP "23 Number Ones"

Beetles???? If it really says Beetles instead of Beatles, it's fake.
