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 modern power pop (e.g., Beck) gets 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 grades close to Mint in appearance (Labels, Vinyl), and the audio sounds nearly Mint as well. The Near Mint picture sleeve has a touch of ringwear.
