George Harrision Single "GIVE ME LOVE (GIVE ME PEACE ON EARTH" A Label Demo ORIGINAL Apple from 1973!!!! With 1G Mother and Stamper!!!!

Released on the 25th May 1973!!!! This entered the UK charts on the 2nd June 1973 where it reached the Number 8 slot and remained in the charts for a total of 10 weeks!!!!

This was the 3rd official single release by George Harrison!!!!

This Track was released as a Preview for the "Living In A Material World" Album!!!!

The B-Side was written in April 1971 about an Apple employee Chris O'Dell!!!! George recorded the Track several times, and Selected the most Humorous version for the Single release!!!! It does NOT appear on ANY other George Product!!!!

Give Me Love reached the Number 1 slot in the US Billboard Hot 100 at the end of June 1973!!!! The Single replaced "My Love" by his former Bandmate from The Beatles, Paul McCartney at the top of the Hot 100 Chart,  and in turn was replaced at Number 1 by "Will It Go Round In Circles" by Billy Preston who played with George and Paul during the sessions for "Let It Be" in 1969!!!! For the week ending June 30th 1973, George, Paul's and Billy Preston's songs were Number 1, 2 and 3 respectively!!!! Making this the ONLY time two of The Beatles occupied the Top 2 positions After the group's Break-Up!!!!

The Matrix, Mother and Stampers are:

Side One: 7YCE-21724-1U. On the run out grooves are the numbers 1 and the letters G. As well as the KT tax code.

Side Two: 7YCE-21725-1U. On the run out grooves are the numbers 1 and the letters G. As well as the KT tax code.

The above Codes prove this to be one of the Very First cut First Pressings of this highly sought after single!!!! Only 250 of these A Label Demos were produced and they were given to "Radio Disc Jockeys", "Record Executives" and EMI Employees to help Promote the sales of each Record!!!! These were NOT FOR SALE and should NOT have got through to the General Public!!!!

CONDITION!!!!

The Green Apple Label to Side 1: is in Very Good++ condition with minimum wear showing, however there Is a Sctatch that Has cut through the Label to the Bottom left, the Bottom left hand Prong of the Center Circle looks as if it has come away (please see my picures) but it definately has NOT!!!! Side 2: is in Great condition apart from 4 Tiny dots to the Bottom left (please see my pictures)!!!! You can also see from them that the Prong to the Center Circle has NOT come away!!!! The Vinyl still retains that Gloosy Look and has clearly been Very Well looked after which is reflected in the playback!!!! There are one or two "Tiny" marks showing on the Vinyl when held up to a bright light (though these have been caused by handling)!!!! On Side-A there are no Pops, Clicks or Jumps anywhere!!!!!!!! On Side-2 there are some Very light Pops and Very slight Background noise, but I can Assure you this ONLY lasts for about 20 Seconds!!!! I play graded this on a Linn LP12 Sondek through a Linn System (which is very unforgiving). The Playback was "Superb"!!!! The record lays perfectly Flat with no Warping!!!!

I would give this Record an overall grade of VERY GOOD++!!!!

Please be aware that this Record is for the Label Enthusiast as opposed to the Listening Devotee!!!! These A Label Demos do NOT surface Often as once they are in a Collectors possession they as a Rule stay!!!!

This Record comes supplied in it's Original Black Aplle sleeve which has no Rips, Tears or Writing and would grade as Very Good++/Excellent!!!!

I like to point out ALL or any Defects so the buyer knows EXACTLY what they are getting. They may sound a little off putting but I can ASSURE you they are tiny in comparison to the "RARITY" of this item. I am expecting a lot of interest in this simply because it is NOT something you will often see for sale. Look on Ebay or ANY Beatles related websites and you will find these Very Difficult to locate!!!!! Awesome!!!!
