RAREST OF ALL THE BEATLES SECOND ALBUM CAPITOL RECORDS LABEL VARIATION
Original 1st East Coast Release Capitol Record's, Scranton, Pennsylvania, Pressing Plant Identifiable Runout Marking IAM In Triangle Stamped In The Trail-Off Vinyl.
FIRST ISSUE OF THE 3RD REVISED STEREO LABEL :
MIS-SPELLED "I CALL YOU NAME", AND WITHOUT RUNNING TIME ON TRACK 2, SIDE 2 ONLY. (WHICH IS DOCUMENTED IN BRUCE SPIZER'S "THE BEATLES SWAN SONG" BOOK, LABEL REFERENCE: CAP2080.SR3A(i). THE INITIAL 1ST RUN LABELS FOR THIS LP, WHICH ARE THE MOST COMMONLY FOUND, DO NOT HAVE THE RUNNING TIMES FOR "LONG TALL SALLY" OR "I CALL YOUR NAME" ON SIDE 2. BUT AFTER CAPITOL RECORDS RECEIVED THE TAPES FOR THESE TWO TRACKS, THE COMPANY REVISED THE LABEL COPY BY ADDING THE TIMES FOR THE TWO SONGS. WHEN THE BMI CREDIT REPLACED THE ASCAP CREDIT FOR THE SONG "I CALL YOUR NAME", CAPITOL ONCE AGAIN REVISED ITS LABEL COPY - BUT ONLY ON THE STEREO LABELS!! THE PRINTER FOR THE EAST COAST STEREO LABEL NOT ONLY CHANGED ASCAP TO BMI AFTER "I CALL YOUR NAME", BUT ALSO DROPPED THE RUNNING TIME FOR THE SONG. THUS, THE STEREO VARIATION HAS THE RUNNING TIME FOR "LONG TALL SALLY" - BUT NOT "I CALL YOUR NAME". YET, THESE REVISED LABELS HAVE "I CALL YOUR NAME" MIS-PRINTED AS "I CALL YOU NAME". WHEN THE ERROR WAS DISCOVERED, CAPITOL CORRECTED THE SONG TITLE, AND ONCE AGAIN PRINTED ANOTHER REVISED LABEL, STILL WITHOUT THE RUNNING TIME ON "I CALL YOUR NAME"
