BEATLES "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE"
UNUSUAL LABEL VARIANT...POSSIBLE MISPRINT
ORIGINAL 1967 UK 2ND PRESSING.
RELEASED JULY 1967 "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE" BECAME THE BEATLES EIGHTH UK RELEASE TO GO DIRECTLY TO NUMBER.
THE TRACK WAS SPECIALLY WRITTEN FOR THE TELEVISION PROGRAMME "OUR WORLD" WHEN THE GROUP AGREED TO REPRESENT BRITAIN ON THE SHOW.
THE CREDITS FOR "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE" SHOULD CARRY THE TEXT "RECORDED LIVE DURING WORLD........", HOWEVER THE VERY 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS SINGLE OMITTED THIS TEXT, THIS ERROR WAS QUICKLY SPOTTED AND A SECOND ISSUE WITH CORRECT LABELS WAS ISSUED.
THIS COPY IS POSSIBLY ONE FOR YOU LABEL COMPLETISTS.... THE "RECORDED DURING WORLD......" LIVE TEXT SHOULD BE LISTED ON THE LABELS UNDERNEATH THE "LENNON-MCCARTNEY" CREDIT, HOWEVER ON THIS COPY THE ADDED TEXT STARTS ON THE SAME LINE AS "LENNON-MCCARTNEY" AND THEN CONTINUES TO THE LINE BELOW, ALSO THE TYPE FACE IS MUCH SMALLER THAN THE USUAL PRESSINGS.
