Beatles Hey Jude! U.K. Export’s, USA & Rare final U.K. 1991 Release!

[@R3TR0R4V3]

Wow, those CPCS export copies were gorgeous! Sound quality wise, I hear those are the ones to get. Really nice collection, as usual. I only have the late 70's German apple version, which I hear sounds nearly as good as the UK export, but I still would like an actual early UK copy at some point. Anyway, thanks for sharing... Always a pleasure seeing your collection, Dave. 😎🍻

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi, Glad you enjoyed my friend! They certainly sound much better than the latter pressings on Parlophone, but they do have a nice analogue warmth to them! Keep searching I’m sure you’ll get lucky one day ! Stay well!

[@alexandermacdonald7547]

Thank you for the shout out Dave,And yet another great presentation from you to us ! 😊

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi, No problem at all and glad you enjoyed! Stay well’

Fantastic!!!! I love the 1991 pressing of Hey Jude that I did not know existed . I have quite a collection of the american pressing and i do own the first pressing export pressing and the British pressing from the 80"s. Keep up the great work it and keep it coming!!!

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi Robert, That’s quite a rare one to see these days , so if you get a chance to get one , grab it! Sounds like your more obsessed than me , if that’s possible Lol ! Thanks for watching and stay well!

Hi Dave very interesting information on the different Hey Jude Albums. I have two different copies one of which is a white label Parlaphone Label, have you come across one of these before. Regards Colin

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi Colin, Glad you enjoyed! I believe the white label Parlophone version came out at the same time as the final one in 1991, everything like the text design and cover should be exactly the same as the black label one. Thanks for watching!

[@colinwilson787]

Thanks Dave glad to know it's a genuine copy as not seen on before. Look forward to watching more of your videos.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Thanks Colin , no problem!

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi SailorSam, It’s definitely not a bad one just gets off on a strange start but certainly gets better! Glad you enjoyed! Stay well!

Hi again Dave ! Wow ! Your CPCS-106 looks like it’s still shrink-wrapped 😂 Amazing how the laminate can still look that smooth after 54 years ! My copy only looks that good when the lights are out😂 What a terrific video of a fascinating album ! Best show of the day👍 Always enjoy a peak at your incredible collection. And thanks for the shout-out as well ! Hope you’re doing well and enjoying June, my friend !

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi Nick, Indeed still in its shrink , nice when those ones turn up like that! Sometimes old laminated sleeves can be buffed up a bit with AutoGlym car polish. You’re very welcome my friend , nearly half the year gone already! Stay well!

Hi Dave. I have an Australian Release from 1974 with Catalogue Number PCSO 7560. Thanks for your video, I wasn’t aware of so many variations 😀👍

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi, Dave. Hope all is well there. This is a wonderful set of Hey Jude albums all in incredible condition. The Sears copy was interesting to hear as we haven't had Sears here in decades.. It's hard to find this one at my usual record haunt, but now I know why. You have them all. Lol Just kidding of course. Quite a few with the original protective plastic. I only have 1 copy of this album, will have to check it to compare with your copies. However I did buy those 45s all in great condition. This album does have great pics of the guys from that time period. Take care and cheers.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi G, All good here my friend! Yes someone mentioned about Sears before from way back. It’s not an entirely easy one to find but they are definitely out there to find, but you’re probably right I’ve got quite a few! Glad you got the 45’s collection, sounded like a pretty good deal! Stay well you guys!

[@alexandermacdonald7547]

Hi Dave, I've just received the 1973 light apple contract pressing. Can't wait to give it a spin !

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

That’s Great, you’ll certainly enjoy it!

[@soulsin97]

Hey BeatleDave, It’s George again from Central Coast, California… that was amazing presentation that you did with the Beatles hey Jude and The Beatles again Albums I do have the Jude one on LP and also on a track tape and two CDs of it as well! I was wondering if you could do a presentation of the Beatles, the US albums Bette that came out in 2014, that would be really awesome. If you did that one I’ll stay an alert if you do that! Rock ‘n’ roll dude!

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi George , Hope you and the central coast are all fine and dandy! Very glad you enjoyed and actually yes I’m definitely gonna be showing that box in 3 videos time, so keep an eye out for that one! Stay well my friend!

[@GoonyBoxes]

I started being able to afford to buy records in the mid 70's when I reached my teens. I remember buying the US version of Help! and The Beatles Story from the import section of HMV, but when I saw Hey Jude I just thought "What the hell is this?" and didn't buy it. Even when it appeared as a UK release a few years later I was still slightly baffled by it and didn't buy it. There was no information highway in those days so it wasn't until I bought a detailed book on Beatles releases in the mid 80's that I found out the history of it. I only have two copies - the US Beatles Again and the UK 1980 pressing. The sleeve on your first UK pressing you showed there was dated June 1981. My 1980 pressing has a sleeve dated September 1982. My US Beatles Again copy I bought sealed earlier this year. I don't know if it was still factory sealed or had been resealed, but it was in pristine condition. It would be cool to think it had been traversing the planet for over 50 years and I was the first to play it. 😃

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi, I think we are of a similar age by the sound of it, I started my Beatles collecting journey in 1979. That was certainly the trouble back then, if you needs any info there was little about , but I did start buying Record Collector in the early 1980’s aa well as the Beatles monthly , so information started to get easier. There’s no reason at all as to why your Beatles again isn’t an original sealed copy, if it looks right it more likely is! Thanks for watching and stay well!

[@ronmartin4212]

Hey,Dave,the first two songs on Side One were not issued on lps prior to that,on Capitol in North America.Neither in mono or stereo,which is why they were included on the lp.They,of course were on the Parli HDN.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi Ron, Yes I did read the reason why those 2 tracks were included, there was also a few other tracks omitted which should have possibly been included. Thanks for watching, stay well!

[@BeAGoodDoga]

Nice collection indeed! If only (apart from the US albums box set which was CD only) we could get a new vinyl pressing of this. But it’s highly doubtful.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi Scott, Yeh I wouldn’t hold your breath for that one, but stranger things have happened! Stay well!

[@BeAGoodDoga]

@@beatledavesbeatleschannel absolutely. I’m still surprised no announcement of any further box sets has been made.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

@@BeAGoodDoga It may be because of the mind games releases!

[@750drums]

Great video, Dave. Very bizarre track listing, to be sure, especially side one. I have a very nice copy of both the German and UK export albums. The laminated jackets are so much nicer (on all the Beatle albums), than the ones we got here in the colonies. My original copy has, what I think was a better title, of The Beatles Again on it.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi, Thanks for watching! I’ve heard the German pressing is pretty good but I don’t have one to compare. One you find a lovely laminated cover , it sure is a great feeling. Oh definitely the Beatles again all the way I feel! Stay well!

[@fbt25]

It's been forever BeatleDave, long time no see. Many thanks for the shout out! I love Hey Jude/Beatles Again. I believe my UK copies are both from '73. Also have a german and a japanese pressing. Now looking for a brazilian export version. Does the 1991 release use '87 remastered sources? Thanks for the video and all the best!

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi FBT, Yes sorry about that , so busy with work and things these days, gets crazy from time to time! No problem for the shout out! I see a lot of collectors like the German pressing but I must admit I haven’t heard that but I’m sure it’s on par with the U.K. pressing! The 1991 Hey Jude is one of those digital remasters from the time sadly! Thanks for watching and stay well!

Hi Fave. It's Eliot Wien from NYC. How are you? Great Video on The Beatles Again/Hey Jude Album!

I have an original USA Beatles Again, but I love the laminated cover of the UK export version. The album still works for me.

[@georgeprice4212]

Hey Dave. I remember the first (and, so far, only) copy of the Hey Jude album was either a pirate copy or a well played official copy - most of Side One sounded muffled.

[@beatledavesbeatleschannel]

Hi George, Quite surprising to hear of counterfeit copies of an album that is pretty well available but may have been a bad pressing! Stay well!

[@georgeprice4212]

@@beatledavesbeatleschannel I’m trying to. You might be right about the bad pressing issue. But, at least it was the proper album and band, and not, say, “The Partridge Family Album”! (Not that there’s anything wrong with The Partridge Family!)

Go review, I've got quite a few copies too. I've also got a Russian version too. The front cover is of them standing infront of St. Pancras Church, taken on their Mad Day Out. With the same photo of the others on the back. The tracks are slightly different too. Can't recall where I brought it from. Pity we can't show photos on KZbin
