THE BALLAD OF JOHN AND YOKO
CENSORED 'RADIO BROADCAST' VERSION
ISSUED IN 1969
"CHRIST" EDITED-OUT; NOT MERELY 'BLEEPED'
EDIT CREATED BY E.M.I. (U.K.) SPECIFICALLY FOR RADIO AIRPLAY IN
COUNTRIES/TERRITORIES WHERE USAGE OF 'CHRIST' WOULD NOT BE ACCEPTABLE
ONLY AROUND 50 COPIES OF THIS NEW ZEALAND PRESSING OF THE CENSORED RADIO-EDIT
WERE PRODUCED BY HIS MASTER'S VOICE (N.Z.)
RADIO-EDIT VERSIONS OF THE BALLAD OF JOHN AND YOKO SINGLE
DO NOT HAVE MATRIX INFORMATION IN THE DEAD WAX OF THE 'A' SIDE
CURIOUSLY, THE NEW ZEALAND PRESSINGS OF THE RADIO-EDIT UTILISE A 'STANDARD'
THE BALLAD OF JOHN AND YOKO LABEL (WITH THE 'STANDARD' PRINTED MATRIX INFO)
THE LABEL BEARS NZBC STICKERS
THE ORIGINAL NEW ZEALAND BROADCASTING CORPORATION (NZBC) PLAY-SHEET, WHICH
NOTES THE DATES, BETWEEN 6 JULY 1969 AND 7 JULY 1986, THAT THE RADIO-EDIT WAS
PLAYED BY THE PARTICULAR NZBC RADIO STATION, IS INCLUDED WITH THE RECORD
THE INTEGRITY OF PLAYBACK (BOTH SIDES) IS SURPRISINGLY GOOD CONSIDERING THE
SHEER AGE OF THIS RECORD AND THE ROUGH-HANDLING THAT BROADCAST VINYL
GENERALLY RECEIVED AT THE HANDS OF DJ'S, PA'S AND SOUND-LIBRARY PERSONNEL
THERE ARE NO STICKS OR JUMPS ON PLAYBACK (AND THAT'S ON MY
LIGHT-ARMED TURN-TABLE)
