A copy of the Capitol Records BUTCHER COVER recall to retail record store is included lt gt lt gt lt gt lt T gt lt H gt lt E gt lt gt lt B gt lt E gt lt A gt lt T gt lt L gt lt E gt lt S gt lt gt lt gt lt gt By the time the Capitol Records released Yesterday And Today,
the Beatles were in hot water in America.
The record was released just
after John s infamous interview in which he stated that the Beatles were
bigger than Jesus , which angered Americans and provoked many bans on
their music and public incineration of memorabilia.
But Yesterday And Today
would take public disapproval to a whole new level, as the original
cover featured the band in butcher s smocks with baby doll parts and raw
meat covering them.
The record was pulled almost immediately - creating
an instant collector s item - and in the confusion that followed,
several replacement covers were issued.
Songs on the album were taken
from the leftovers of the British release Rubber Soul as well as the single/B-side Yesterday/Act Naturally released on the UK version of Help ,
the single/B-side We Can Work It Out/ DayTripper , and three songs
which had not, at that point, been released in the UK: I m Only
Sleeping , Doctor Robert , and And Your Bird Can Sing which all
wound up on the UK version of Revolver .Drive My Car 2:30 Recorded: October 13, 1965 at Abbey Road, London, EnglandJohn Lennon - lead vocal, tambourinePaul McCartney - lead vocal, bass guitar, pianoGeorge Harrison - lead guitar, background vocalRingo Starr - drumsI m Only Sleeping 3:01 Recorded:
