After missing
1965, Beatles (U.S.A.) Ltd. once again sent out a Christmas record
in 1966. But while British fans were treated to Paul's psychedelic
sleeve, Americans received a 7" X 8 1/2" postcard with a vinyl
record coated on one side and text on the other. The record label's silver text as the date 1966 at the top followed by "Season's Greetings" in script and "from The Beatles" in block letters. Running speed, rights information and "Made in U.S.A." apper below the spindle hole. The text side has "The Beatle Bulletin" for Christmas, 1966, and the lyrics of the two songs on the left, and space for attaching and address label on the right. On 24th. November 1966, the Beatles returned to the studio after a five month absence. That evening they recorded Take 1 of "Strawberry Fields Forever". The creative spirit of that session was carried forward to the next day when the group gathered at Dick James Music on New Oxford Street to tape their annual holiday message. |
