Introducing The Beatles Vee-Jay VJLP-1062, Version One, January 10, 1964. The third back cover variation is much more conventional. Although this cover has no liner notes or pictures, it does list the song titles in the thick blank print in two columns. The VJ brackets logo is centered at the top of the cover above the title of the album, which appears in huge black letters. This boring cover variation, hereinafter referred to as the “Titles on Back” cover, is clearly the result of Vee-Jay’s desire to get the album issued as quickly as possible. First version of the “Titles on Back” cover include “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You” title songs. This cover of Introducing The Beatles printed has mono variation only. Front cover slicks without “Printed in U.S.A.” All stereo versions of the “Title Back” covers are 100% fakes.
The record label has left justified song titles and songwriters’ credits with “INTRODUCING the BEATLES” is in medium print and the words “LONGPLAYING” and “MICROGROOVE” appear on the label. The typesetting on the labels has an amateurish appearance as “THE BEATLES” is not level, particularly noticeable on Side 1. Its trail off areas have hand etched matrix numbers as well as the date 6-29-63 and the initials “RA” and “A”. The machine stamped Audio Matrix logo is also present. This variation was pressed by Southern Plastics. It is not know if Southern Plastics pressed stereo Version One records.
One of the three Beatles-related lawsuits involving Vee-Jay in January of 1964 involved the copyrights to two of the songs featured on Introducing The Beatles, namely Love Me Do and P.S. I Love You. In Beechwood Music, Inc. vs Vee-Jay Records, Inc., the New York federal District Court issued an injunction prohibiting Vee-Jay from producing or distributing any records containing the songs Love Me Do and P.S. I Love You. Although Vee-Jay appealed this decision, the company decided that it could eliminate its immediate problem with its Introducing The Beatles album by dropping the two songs from the album. These songs were replaced with Ask Me Why and Please Please Me.
