Description
In February of 1973, ten years and three years after, respectively, the release of the Beatles' first and last albums, a group of affiliated radio stations across Australia sponsored the release of an LP which packaged together the previously released compilations, as,
The Beatles Greatest Hits Volumes One And Two (The Beatles' Australian 10th Anniversary 1963-1973).
The vinyl were housed in a custom gatefold sleeve, to which was attached a triangular gold sticker bearing the name of the radio station which was promoting the album in a particular Australian State or Territory, this one is missing leaving a mark on top left (see pic 4).
Whilst there was no new content, or new mixes of old content, on the album, the labels eschewed the orange hue that characterised contemporary Beatles releases in favour of a more subdued lilac/purple colour. This record undeniably adds to the unique character of the Australian Beatles discography.
The album was only avaiiable for 2-3 months only in Australia.
