Being American, our releases never got the fab liner notes the UK albums did, and I was just struck by one line from 'Beatles For Sale' - "The kids of AD 2000 will draw from the music much the same sense of well being and warmth as we do today." Here we are twenty-one years after that STILL enjoying them. Ageless and timeless indeed. Great video, thank you!

The STEREO printed on cover of Rubber Soul is extremely rare to begin with but the BLACK “ STEREO “ is really rare . It’s only on the very first pressing as people could not see the word STEREO when it was printed in black . - It blended into the dark area of top right of cover - So G & L changed it asap to SILVER so people could see it easier . I’ve sold both, I got substantially more lucre for the black stereo cover .

Hi, fascinating as always! I just found that my later 1963 copy of With the Beatles mono, E. J. Day cover, does not rely on the adhesive power of the front slick alone but has one flap inwards, if you understand what I mean, which brings it halfway from the flipback covers (cardboard folded over to the back) to later covers with 'flip-in' construction, i.e. two flaps of the front panel folded inwards and glued to the rear panel. I guess that whole patents business was somewhat futile. Record covers were not meant to last a lifetime. The Garrod & Lofthouse two-piece solution was just designed to save costs (which I doubt it did), but as it turned out the fact that the rear panel was not laminated (a practice other nations sadly repeated years later after they had produced much more durable sleeves for Beatles releases for some years) made it so much harder for today's collectors to find clean copies of the UK originals. And talking of laminate: do you think you could address that problem? It's very hard to find early UK Beatles records without creases (actually creases of the fairly thin cardboard and resulting folds of the laminate), laminate lift-offs (or bubbles) etc. That was due to Clarifoil, the laminate brandname at the time (and now, I believe), wasn't it? I'm looking forward to part two (and why the hell the white album went off-white so quickly or whatever news you might have for us). '

A thoroughly interesting explanation on Beatles albums covers. I've always loved their covers and foreign variations as well. I was aware of the photographers and places but this is the first time I've seen an upload on the subject. I think album art is a crucial part to collecting and marketing. Many rock 'n' rollers have beautiful album art too, such as Gene Vincent and of course Elvis, Johnny Hallyday in France has fantastic album covers. Conversely, The Rolling Stones and many big bands and those of recent times do not have the same level of album iconic art given to all their albums.

I have some original UK Capitol albums from the late 50s and early 60s (Sinatra, King Cole etc.) and they still look magnificent!

Hi Andrew, Henry here again, not sure how i missed this posting, just a couple of things to add, either of the GOTTA / GOT A WTB sleeves can appear randomly on any copy up until the last flipbacks of 1971/2, no idea why, & all the AHDN outline stereo copies i have seen would seem to indicate a date of 1968 ( again no idea why ) just as the small stereo AHDN's seem to appear slightly later for that album c 1966 although EMI did indeed first introduce the small stereo designator for all their new titles from as you say later-mid 65. As for PPM in case i missed it the mid-sized mono sleeves only exist on EJD, Garrod jump straight from large mono to small mono c late-mid 65 - more to add on part 2

Garrod & Lofthouse was the printing company where they used for their UK Beatles albums, and so did the original Tamla Motown albums from the UK where they took the actual covers from the US releases and copied it and reprinted by Garrod & Lofthouse using the Tamla Motown name on the label where it plastered the US Motown logo including Motown, Tamla, Gordy, and Soul. The artists were Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, Diana Ross & the Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, the Four Tops, and others for their album covers that were printed by Garrod & Lofthouse, along with Motown’s manufacturing and copyright in the US were replaced by EMI Records Ltd. and the Emitex record cleaner advertisements on the back.

In the 70s, I used to collect as many different Beatles Capitol Records & British Imports which was crazy since I was a kid in the US and didn't havethe luxury of spending on imports or looking for older albums from the sixties. I eventually sold all my collections and didn't look back. It was fun, but I had too many albums. I also thought the UK artwork & packaging was superior to the US versions at the time. The albums inspired me to become a graphic designer. Perhaps, you can do a similar video on Capitol Records version of The Beatles albums?

Hi Andy , I knew a printer who lived at Pidley , just outside St. Ives , and we used to trade from each other bits n bobs. He once gave me about 30 unconstructed single LP sleeves that he said were the overrun of a special McCartney sleeve his firm were asked to make. It’s laminated , completely white with no printing on it other than the printers colour bars that would have been hidden if constructed. He had no idea from which LP this was made for (and neither did I) but just recently I saw a few of these “special” sleeves made for in-house editions of Flaming Pie (I think??) with what appears to be a rubber stamped “flaming pie” motif applied to it , so I think that’s where they were made for. He was a 100% genuine guy and gave me the sleeves so he had no reason to make it up. Other than my word for it and his word for it to me , there’s just no way to be able to prove what they are ...unless the “colour bars” printed on the flipback are some kind of barcode telling what they are.... I’ve still got most of the 30+ that he gave me just using the odd occasional one or two for nice LP’s that I acquire without any kind of sleeve.......when you construct them you can make them flipback or hidden non-flipback

Supposedly because he felt Americans wouldn't buy it/too expensive. I know someone else was responsible for the Apple logo being red on US (and some other places) LP copies, can't remember who. There were those freaky Apple logos on some export copies, almost like a rainbow on the back cover, maybe UK, Europe. Then there's the Parlophone logo export copies from the UK as well.

:D - check very carefully and you might also find some other oddities with EMI album sleeves... I found one which had a slightly thicker back or front inners, this was glued inside a back part which seems to have been reused - perhaps to strengthen it? I made this discovery when I repaired a sleeve, which had come unstuck, recently. The reused 'inner/back' has a (printed?) black line going up it. It is a Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve (at least the 'back inner' is). It also has a R 3288 code printed at the bottom of it. (I'm not sure what record or what sleeve it was from now, as I simply assumed it was a mistake). Just saying, for where there is one, there might be another?

Since you brought it up you should have taken the time to explain why the Beatles aren't spelling out Help on the cover of their album. What does NJUV stand for? There must be a reason they did that.
@Parlogram3 жыл бұрын
They tried HELP but it just didn't look good, so they went with the random NJUV.

What was the name of the song on the intro? It sounds a lil bit like « Love On The Air » by David Gilmour but it doesn’t sound like it’s him

I loved the UK LPs due to the glossy covers as opposed to the 'flat' coves on the U.S. versions. Am I correct thinking the UK LPs sounded better? Something to do with the vinyl?
@jamiespinks31793 жыл бұрын
2 days late but anyway ! , yes the uk Lps do sound better as they were generally left alone when being cut/ the final mastering but Capitol messed around with the final master before cutting the lps so they ended up not sounding as good

Yea,Meet the Beatles is probably the only "With The.."equivalent(or close to it)worldwide that issued the mono in stereo-folddown mixes,not true mono!!I guess Capitol only received a stereo master of With The Beatles from EMI?!!!?

Hello Andrew I have an U.K. Stereo copy of Revolver which has no Stereo indicator print on the front. With that being said it’s still retains the footballs on the rear panel. Have you seen this before? Your thoughts please. Regards, Randy

Hello, I am wondering do you ofte see EJ Day Please Please Me covers that are their later 1964 onwards 3 flap flipback version? I have just acquired a one of these and it seems very genuine but I have never seen any others for sale
@Parlogram2 жыл бұрын
The last EJ Day PPM covers c.1965 have the 'mid-sized' mono/stereo indicators.
@andrewbuchan89522 жыл бұрын
@@Parlogram thank you for your response. It is strange because this one is a large sized mono. I originally thought it may be counterfeit but its front image is quite sharp like my other EJ Day covers, it is properly laminated and has the earlier eggshell finish to the back panel too, yet it is of the later type of construction used on rubber soul, revolver etc. It came with the most common 1963 issue record inside but with later 17 / 46 mothers, maybe pressed just before the 2N recut. It is very confusing
