• Less than 20 have been found so far! This is why it has been bootlegged so many times... but this is no bootleg, but a genuine first version stereo pressing with the rarest of all, COLUMN COVER as well with the first original song listings featuring the songs Love me Do and PS I Love You. There were three variants of the first version, an AD cover (featuring ads of other VJ LP's on the rear slick), a BLANK cover (which is just what it sounds like... a blank cover slick) and the rarest of all the COLUMN COVER (with the songs listed in columns on the rear slick). This is the most rare, because the VJ label had received a court injunction against them for the use of the songs Love Me Do and PS I Love You, which they had already pressed into these LP's. It was because of this that they tried to hide the contents of the LP with the other two variants and why the version with the songs listed is SO RARE! Couple that with the STEREO version (ultra rare in stereo to begin with) and you have a supreme top shelf collectible... one of less than TWENTY!! Much more rare than the BUTCHER COVER, incidentally!
