Paperback Writer/ Rain

Here's a beautiful copy of the first pressing of this classic single. In case you've forgotten, "Rain" is more enduring in some ways than the A side... 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 45 record comes in a vintage Capitol Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and very nearly Mint audio despite some notable scuffing on the vinyl.
