COMMENTS
This EP record was released with two different variations of the record cover (#1-1 and #1-2). Both covers contain, however, indentical records with either orange or red labels.
The later cover (#1-2) has a picture of The Beatles from their visit to France in January 1964.
All the titles on the EP records were already earier released in mono in France when these records were issued, and the fact is that these two records are re-editions of the EP: "MISTER TWIST Tony Sheridan (Polydor 21914)" from 1962. Both the 1962 and the 1964 editions of this EP have the same record number and contain the same titles.

This cover was released together with records with either orange or red label.
