Paperback Writer/ Rain

Originally released on Capitol 5651. In case you've forgotten, the B side of this single is more enduring in some ways than the A side... it's one of the touchstones where a lot of modern power pop (e.g., Beck) gets its inspiration. This is a beautiful copy of the black Capitol Starline release with a rainbow edge, in its factory sleeve. Like many Beatles singles, neither of these tracks appeared on any contemporary Beatles album (they should have been on "Revolver"). Note: This beautiful 45 record has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).
