Description

ONE ONLY! Beatles investment with terrific upside potential:

THE BEATLES: AIN'T SHE SWEET/NOBODY'S CHILD (Atco #6308 1st pressing w/PICTURE SLEEVE, 1964): CLEAN M- 45 & CLEAN VG+/M- PICTURE SLEEVE w/staple holes.

                        


GUARANTEED TO PLEASE! Beautiful Atco #6308 1st pressing 45 with its scarce picture sleeve.  This single features the first professionally-recorded John Lennon vocal. The picture sleeve is CLEAN VG+/M- without rips, writing, stickers or seam splits; it's docked half-a-notch for a pair of unobtrusive staple holes (see photos).  NO DRILL HOLE on sleeve or single.  The 45 looks virtually unplayed!


Low opening bid without reserve...put it in The Vault!

Unconditional no-BS guarantee: if you're not happy, return it for a refund.  Thousands of satisfied customers (& a few soreheads) in nearly 20 years selling 45s on eBay. NEW 2025 weekly auctions from my carefully curated collection!
  Any item selling for over $100 must be shipped with insurance, so please wait to pay until you get a revised invoice.  U.S. bidders only.

More small print?

At the end of the 1961 Tony Sheridan sessions in Hamburg there was a little time left over.  Tony's backup band The Beatles were told they could tape a couple of numbers.  They recorded John singing lead vocal on Ain't She Sweet plus instrumental Cry For A Shadow.  Both recordings were promptly forgotten.

Until 3 years later & Beatlemania, that is.  In 1964 Atco Records secured the rights to Ain't She Sweet, dusted it off, & issued it that Fall.  Even though the song was ancient (written in 1927), the magic of The Beatles' name rewarded Atco's crass commercialism with a Top 20 hit.

Don't be fooled by cheap fakes; look for "AT" in the trailout wax.
