Description
GEORGE HARRISON MY SWEET "LORD b/w WHAT IS LIFE" DEMO
RELEASED 1970
APPLE R 5884
STAMPER Nos 1 P 1/3 RPA
MATRIX Nos - 2 -1
THERE ARE TWO DEMO VERSIONS OF THIS RECORD THE ORIGINAL PRESSING IN THE "HEAD" PICTURE SLEEVE WITH DARK APPLE LABELS FROM 1970 AND THIS COPY A LATER PRESSING FROM 1976 IN THE "GNOME" PISTURE SLEEVE WITH THE LATER LIGHT APPLE LABELS ( "HEAD" SLEEVE IS A HEAD AND SHOULDERS PIC OF GEORGE AND THE GNOME SLEEVE IS A PIC OF GEORGE IN THE GROUNDS OF HIS ESTATE SURROUNDED BY GNOMES AND LOOKING REMARKABLY LIKE ONE HIMSELF !
THE SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY WRITING OR STAINING
THE RECORD HAS SEEN A NUMBER OF PLAYS OVER THE YEARS AND DOES HAVE SOME HANDLING AND SURFACE MARKS NOTHING FEELABLE AND DISC ALSO HAS A SLIGHTLY DULL FINISH TO THE VINYL SURFACES THE LABELS HOWEVER ARE BRIGHT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY DISTRESS THE "DEMO" TEXT IS VISIBLE ON BOTH SIDES AND THE LARGE "A" IS PROMINENT ON SIDE 1 THE DISC PLAYS THROUGH ON BOTH SIDES WITHOUT ANY STICKING OR JUMPING
I CAN'T SAY FOR SURE WHICH IS THE RARER OF THE TWO DEMO'S BUT EITHER PRESSING ONLY TURNS UP INFREQUENTLY AND IS PROBABLY BEING THE FIRST THE HARDEST OF GEORGE'S DEMO'S TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION
