Notes
Mid 70's pressing of Odeon Germany release SMO 83991, originally released June 1965.There are several variations of this blue label, which EMI Germany began using in 1969.
The one pictured here was purchased new April 1977. The 1976 date listed is a "guesstimate".
Label details:
-Labels have small "ST33" indicator in ovals
-Catalog # still begins with 1C 062, changed to 1C 072 by the early 80s.
-There is no small circle under "The Beatles"
Jacket details:
-Does not have an 'N' after the catalogue number or a black circle below catalogue number on back cover, upper right corner
-Has the EMI Electrola logo on the bottom back, along with "EMI Electrola GmbH / Printed in Germany by 4P Nicolaus GmbH, Koln"
Audiophile notes:
-She Loves You A7 is fake stereo
-I Feel Fine B1 sounds like the version from Beatles '65 in the US, fake stereo drenched with echo.
-All My Loving B8 has the hi-hat intro.
