The Beatles Yesterday And Today - 2nd State US vinyl LP album (LP record)
|
| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
The Beatles Yesterday & Today album was released in the US by Capitol Records on June 15th 1966. The cover featured a highly controversial picture of the group dressed in white butcher smocks showing raw cuts of meat and parts of toy dolls strewn about their apperal.
The album was issued to radio stations and stores in advance of release and caused such an uproar that it was recalled.
As so many copies of the offensive cover had already been manufactured at great cost it was decided that rather than scrap these covers and reprint, a different picture slick showing the group around a luggage trunk would be printed and pasted over the offending image.
As news spread of the picture underneath, people tried to peel off the new slick to reveal the image, with varying success.
A butcher cover as issued by Capitol in its natural state is known as a first state copy. Mono copies in good condition fetch many thousands of dollars, regardless of condition, stereo copies fetch even more since there were 20 times more mono than stereo copies produced.
A butcher cover with the trunk cover slick pasted over the top is known as a second state. If you look carefully at the white area on the right hand side of the sleeve, Ringo's black V-neck sweater can be seen through the replacement slick.
Lastly a butcher sleeve with the trunk cover slick peeled off is known as a third state. It is very rare that a trunk cover slick can be removed without damaging the 'butcher' image beneath.
Very few copies were reportedly sold in stores with this cover in its first state and a first state stereo copy in resonable condition will now cost the collector in excess of $10,000!
CONDITION
The labels are Capitol rainbow rim in design with clear bright text, no blemishes or excessive spindlemarks & 'MFD BY CAPITOL' text on the label black area inside the colourband border.
The vinyl remains in Excellent condition with a deep sheen both sides & few signs of play. This is a superb example for playing, complete with the correct period 'Capitol 66' advertising inner and a copy of the recall letter as sent out by Ron Tepper from Capitol explaining the recall.
The all important cover is in stunning condition. All seams & edges are intact & the panels are Excellent with merely the lightest spot of age wear here or there. A superb, highly prized example!
