Lennon/plastic Ono Band Give Peace A Chance Uk 1969 Apple demo 45 Beatles

PLASTIC ONO BAND - GIVE PEACE A CHANCE / REMEMBER LOVE Unlike EMI/Parlophone, Apple did not produce any dedicated demonstration 45s in 1969.
The few titles which required advance promotion copies were the white labelled discs the first few of the press which then had Apple labels usually reserved for acetates adhered to them, often with typed or handwriten labels.
This genuine demo of John s debut solo 45 Give Peace A Chance / Remember Love Apple 13 is such an example.
Both labels have Apple Custom Recording labels with the 3 Savile Row address with typewritten labels detailing: artist, song title release date - 4th July 1969.
On the 3rd July, a press reception for the release of the single took place at the Chelsea Town Hall.
However John Yoko were unable to attend as they had been involved in a car accident on the 1st in Golspie in Scotland and Ringo Maureen Starr deputised for them.
The Plastic Ono Band were represented by an abstract design of clear perspex recording equipment as seen on the single s picture sleeve.
