45.72146.2.1 | Swirl with brackets (1967)

45.72146.2.1 features the new swirl label with brackets - "CAPITOL RECORDS (CANADA)". These brackets copies are much harder to find as they were made in small quantities to meet sporadic (and decreasing) demand for back catalogue titles.



Availability

This variation (45.72146.2.1) was pressed and released in 1967. Copies surface from time to time, they were most likely available for a very short time in 1967.


General Information

This series of brackets label reissues was part of a short back catalogue repressing order in 1967. These were not in high demand anymore and were "set aside" after this until later in the early to mid 1970s. Titles repressed in this short series were:

She Loves You (72125)
All My Loving (72144)
Twist And Shout (72146)
I Want To Hold Your Hand (5112)
Can't Buy Me Love (5150)
A Hard Day's Night (5222)
And I Love Her (5235)
Eight Days A Week (5371)
Yesterday (5498) - A curious COMPO repressing of a previously RCA-pressed title.

Three more were reported to exist (see article at the bottom of the technical column on the right side of this page), but no copies have been verified to date:

Love Me Do (72076)
Please Please me (72090)
From Me To You (72101)


Pressing Information

45.72146.2.1 made from a newer lacquer than 45.72146.1.1. and featured a later -3 matrix with no crossed out "CC". These also featured a "No. 2 and No.3" at the very end.

Matrix numbers for all copies are as follows:

Side A: CC1-72146-3 No.3
Side B: CC2-72146-2 No.2



Packaging

These 1967 repressings were found in a new Capitol sleeve featuring flat white thin paper and diagonally written black "Capitol", repeated across the sleeve. The dome logo is also present in the top corner of the sleeve.

Sales

There were no reported sales numbers for these repressings, so it is unknown how many were made, if all were sold or if copies were even returned to be recycled. A much lower 2585 copies have reportedly sold in 1965 (source: P. Hemmingsen, The Beatles’ Canadian Discography part. 3), so it would be surprising to discover it had moved in larger quantities again in 1967 under this "new" label. This series in general is pretty scarce, so it is fair to assume that they were sold in very small quantities.
