Notes

Original UK release in front laminated flipback cover with pinched spine endings.
Poly-lined "Use 'Emitex'" company inner sleeve.

First pressing. July 10, 1964. Black labels with yellow logo and silver print. "The Parlophone Co. Ltd." printed at the start perimeter print. "Recording First Published 1964" and "Sold In U.K. Subject … " text. Labels have a narrow font. KT UK tax code embossed on side B label center.

The title 'Songs from the film "A HARD DAY’S NIGHT"' doesn’t take up as much width across the side A label as before or as it does in future. This variation is placed here, as this slimmer text may have been an experiment after the chubby text style was changed. This version has a few variants.

From the soundtrack of the United Artists film 'A HARD DAY'S NIGHT'

Runouts are stamped.
