Twist And Shout /
There's A Place

This variation (45.72146.5.1) features the new target label design. These copies have GLOSSY labels.

Availability

This variation was available BEFORE December 1971 when RCA stopped varnishing their labels. Glossy label copies were therefore available before December 1971, while flat label copies were available only for a short time in early 1972, over the span of a few months.

General Information

Very few titles from the Beatles' back catalogue were reissued on the target label. These titles were not selling as much anymore, and only two of them are known to have been repressed in that 1969-1970 period on the target label with a DOME logo (Help and Lady Madonna). Sometime around late 1970-1971, a few more titles were reissued on the new label design, but this time with the TARGET logo on the label. These were glossy until December 1971 when RCA stopped varnishing their labels. Later reissues (like All My Loving and twist and Shout) have also seen a flat label reissue on the target label.

For a complete list of titles released on the target label see Releases by Label Type page of this website, through the main menu at the top.

Pressing Information

45.72146.5.1 was made from totally new lacquer cuts than the previous swirl with brackets label pressing. All documented copies have glossy labels (before December 1971) and feature a -3 on both sides as follows:

Side A: CC1-72146-3 No3
Side B: CC2-72146-3 No3

Packaging

These new label designs would have been sold in a blue and yellow target Capitol sleeve.

Sales

No reported sales have been found by the authors, but it is doubtful that this was pressed in anything other than marginal numbers to fill sporadic demand for their back catalogue (that was much lower at this point in time).
