Twist And Shout /
There's A Place

This variation features the new orange design labels, with GOLD perimeter print. Not many titles (or copies of this title) were pressed on this variation of labels, making it pretty scarce today.

Availability

This variation was technically available from 1972 to 1974, when the label changed to black perimeter print (see 45.72146.7.1). Very few copies were pressed, and they do not surface very often.

General Information

Very few titles from the Beatles' back catalogue were reissued on this label generation (only 5 different titles have been documented). Older titles were not in high demand anymore, and titles were pressed on a need-to basis. For a complete list of titles released on the 1st generation orange label, see Releases by Label Type page of this website.

Pressing Information

45.72146.6.1 (with gold perimeter print) were pressed yet again from new plates with different matrix information. Curiously, the A-side has a mirror image of “No.1” before the rest of the CC matrix number, as if the stamper was made from an intermediate part, onto which the new matrix was written:

Side A: I .oN CC1-72146
Side B: CC2-72146

This was the last pressing using the iconic font and text layout used on previous pressings. This layout and text font changes on the next generation of pressings (see 45.72146.7.1).

Packaging

These new orange label pressings would have been sold in a brown / orange target Capitol sleeve.
