Description
I’ve gone into the vault (closet) again and found more treasures (more promo records and still sealed LPs) to bring out and auction off as I downsize my collection. I discovered additional duplicates of promo vinyl, so please check my other auctions for MORE PROMO VINYL that may be of interest to you.
In this auction:
· “TWIST AND SHOUT” by The Beatles
· This is Capitol Records P-B-5624.
· This is a PROMOTIONAL SINGLE with both A-side and B-side in STEREO.
· As you may know, 45 RPM PROMO RECORDS were released by record companies ONLY to the radio stations and DJs for airplay to promote the artist or new LP. They were not released to, sold to, or made available to the general public.
· This record was issued in July of 1986.
· Twist And Shout” was originally recorded and released by The Beatles in 1963 (per printing on the labels); however, this pressing/re-release of the song was to coincide with the release of the movie “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” with Matthew Broderick lip-syncing the hit tune.
· John Lennon’s voice was really put to the test as he shouted out the lyrics to “Twist And Shout” in the recording session. Sources state that the song was recorded after the band had spent 12 straight hours of recording, and their throats were sore from it. Lennon was suffering from a cold, and his voice was on the verge of failing. John, after sucking on throat lozenges and gargling with milk to soothe his throat, belted out the recording we have. A second take was attempted, but John’s voice was too far gone at that point, and that take was not completed. John later said that his voice was not the same for a long time afterward and that “every time [he] swallowed. It felt like sandpaper”.
· The VINYL is NEAR MINT.
· The WHITE LABELS are CLEAN, BRIGHT, and SNOWY WHITE!!!
· It comes in its Capitol Records stock paper sleeve.
· It’s a NICE BEATLES PROMO 45 RPM RECORD for YOUR vinyl collection!!!
