Paperback Writer/ Rain

In addition to its classic hit side, the flip side, "Rain," is more enduring in some ways... it's one of the touchstones where a lot of 1990s Power Pop got its inspiration. Like many Beatles singles, neither of these tracks appeared on any contemporary Beatles album (they should have been on "Revolver"). Note: This beautiful copy has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio). The Near Mint picture sleeve (one of the band's rarest) grades Near Mint with a touch of ringwear but no other notable flaws. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)
