Parlophone & Apple Label
Mono Limited Edition



[1981]

label
First released in the UK in 1981, it was the first time since 1969/70 that a mono mix of the album was sold by EMI.
This premier mono reissue of the first of his eight albums (Please Please Me to Sgt. Pepper's) features a "60s" yellow/black reproduction label with a yellow Parlophone logo above the top. The word "mono" was added on the right side. Two of his Apple albums (The Beatles and Yellow Submarine) were issued by the Apple label, also in "mono" designation.
The 1981 mono pressing was originally issued for individual sale. It wasn't until much later, in 1982, that the albums were released together as a box set (catalog number BMC-10).
The 1981 issue is a press featuring his Y/B Parlophone reprint label from the '60s. After that, all mono pressings of the 80's and 90's used his standard universal silver/black 1 box label.
Copies of the 1981 mono pressing are rare, given the generally limited number of pressings of the 1981 series and the fact that each variant of the box set (500 copies each) is a "limited edition" It is no exaggeration to say that.
