Description

This auction is for a Rare 1st Apple single from 1968, by a British trad-jazz outfit. A-side is surely one of the most obscure songs in the Lennon-McCarntney publishing catalog.
So , if you are looking at this, you know what it is. This ISN'T a M perfect copy. It has surface scuffs, a couple scratches ( see pics)but plays through with no skips

JOHN FOSTER & SONS LTD. BLACK DYKE MILLS BAND: Thingumybob/Yellow Submarine
7"
Apple 1800

The Black Dyke Mills Band, a brass band from Yorkshire, England, was one of Apple Records' first signings. On this day Paul McCartney recorded them performing the Lennon-McCartney composition Thingumybob, which became their first single for the label.

The recording took place in Saltaire near Bradford, with McCartney producing the session. As well as Thingumybob, the group recorded Yellow Submarine for the single's b-side. While in Yorkshire McCartney was interviewed by Tony Cliff for the BBC Television programme Look North.

Thingumybob was written as the theme tune to the Yorkshire Television comedy of the same name, which was transmitted from August 1968. The single, credited to John Foster & Sons Ltd Black Dyke Mills Band, was released as Apple 1800 in the US on 26 August, and in the UK as Apple 4 on 6 September.
