Availability beyond the UK While this album was unavailable it was not only available in the UK.

I am in possession of a Mexican pressing of the record from the late 1960s. This album apparently was available in Los Estados de Mexico, but not the EEUU. Dogru144 22:58, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Same here - an Israeli pressing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.176.159.193 (talk) 14:24, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It also came out in Denmark, Danish pressing. In 1966, I suppose; I'm not an expert but I own a copy - and have owned another - with label and cover like the other original 1960's Parlophone LP's. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.111.56.234 (talk) 21:19, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Cover[edit]

Who designed the cover to the album? The style looks remarkably like that of Yellow Submarine released two years later, a style that would later be associated mainly with Peter Max as "that typical 60s style", however Max contended he'd only been influenced by the art of Yellow Submarine. So who did this album cover two years before Yellow Submarine was even released? --79.193.50.150 (talk) 14:42, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(That's the MOVIE Yellow Submarine. The song of that name had already been on a single and the Revolver album in 1966.)

And how about including the photo of the Beatles which appeared on the rear of the cover? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 16:32, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Odd comment on "She Loves You"[edit]

In discussing the inclusion of "She Loves You", the article now states, "The song is complete on both the first pressing mono and stereo issues, the Fame budget label reissue from the 1980s, and the re-sequenced prerecorded cassette." Was the song ever not complete on the album? The statement certainly implies as much, but never actually comes right out and says so. 73.174.36.17 (talk) 12:40, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
