Description

Saluting their return to America - 15 great songs composed by John Paul and George and sung by the merseyboys, Vee Jay 1101, 1965. Promo issue.

Except for the rare white label promotional copy of the interview record "Hear The Beatles Tell All", there are no known copies of promotional records for any of Vee-Jay's Beatles albums. However, there are at least two variations of promotional records for "15 Greatest Songs". This copy is type 1.

Type-1) Pressed by ARP.
White label with a large blue brackets logo and outer rim colorband in varying shades of blue.
The phrase "Disc Jockey Advance Sample" is left of the brackes logo and the phrase "NOT FOR SALE" is to the right, both in blue print.
The remaining information appears in black ink.
Misspelled "AMERICA" as "AMERCIA" on the label.
The words "Long Playing" and "Microgroove" appear on the label.
Side I contains 7 songs, but the label lists only 6 songs and has the phrase "& OTHER SONGS" at the bottom of the label.
Side II contains 8 songs, but the label lists only 6 songs and has the phrase "& OTHER SONGS" at the bottom of the label.

Vinyl is Good, scuffs and light scratches. Clean labels.

Cover is VG, no splits. Lower seam wear.

The Merseyboys were actually a group from Birmingham, England, originally known as the Plazents that featured lead singer Buddy Ash (Graham Ashford), Roger Hill on guitar and vocals, Graham Gallery on bass guitar and vocals, Paul Carter on saxophone and Dave Mountney on drums.
