The BEATLES. *33* rpm vinyl record. 4 Song EP. Thailand. Pirate/Bootleg. Vinyl Condition is Goldmine EX. My highest grade for unsealed records. Great vinyl, light scuffs or marks but plays thru well!! Both labels EX, clean and no writing on labels!! Labels still have plastic film over them for protection, like lamination, never seen anywhere else but Thailand!! The Picture Sleeve is way cool and the front is very nice, EX, 12 nice photos of the boys from the Let it be period!! Thailand issued Picture Sleeves that were as different as the songs they put together! Back side has wear and is dirtier than the front but it is still functional and sturdy, and has a very interesting ink stamp on it which is in foreign language that says something about “Hong Kong Service”!! It’s up to you whether it’s a positive or negative thing!! The Lightly played record is marvelous!! THAILAND issued most Beatles EPs on TK or MTR Records. Many had rare Thai only song choices. There is NO other Beatles EP in the world with these 4 songs, especially the 2 5 minute songs from Sgt.Peppers!! I have many EP and am always hoping to find others!! Originally I found some and discovered they were good quality bootlegs/ pirates (not authorized by EMI, and no royalties to the Beatles), like this one. These 4 songs are all on other Singles worldwide so it is not an EP to keep in my collection. So I offer it to you!! I purchased them in my search for Worldwide Beatles EP rare tracks. Three countries dominate this category: Thailand, Malaysia, and Iran. All those discs are pirates. Back to this one: 1969 press of A DAY IN THE LIFE and HERE COMES THE SUN plus WITHIN YOU WITHOUT YOU and PAPERBACK WRITER. All these pirate discs are MONO from the 60s. Paperback writer and A Day in the Life are common Beatles songs worldwide, but the other two are Hard to Find, Numbers 91 and 103 on my Hard to Find List! Request a copy of my Top 100 Hard to Find Beatles songs on 45 Singles Worldwide List, if interested, no charge. Stereo did not become common on 45s till 1969! Request my List of 150 Beatles Songs in Stereo on 45 Singles Worldwide, if interested, no charge. See photos, actual record. This one comes in Common white sleeve and with the original Thai Picture Sleeve shown. I am a 50+ year Beatles collector. Item Shipped with USPS Media Mail and Global Shipping Program. Multiple purchases all ship for $5 total, so browse for others, no added shipping. Best. Beatle Lew.
