An easel-backed card stock in-store shop display from the 1960s used to promote the release of The Beatles album. With the exception of posters, it was highly unusual for EMI to produce promotional material for any of The Beatles releases, particularly in the mid to latter part of the group’s career, because of their immense popularity. The standee is an enlarged image of the front of the UK mono vinyl LP sleeve. It was originally on display in 1966 at Beatties department store in Wolverhampton, England. At the same time he spotted the. Display and asked if the store would save it for him. Tonks was told that the standee had already been promised to someone else; however, that person failed to show and staff gave Tonks the display after the promotional period was over. His name is written on the reverse of the display. 29 1/2 by 28 1/4 inches. Revolver album by the Beatles, signed vertically on the front cover in black felt tip by its designer, Klaus Voormann. In very good condition, with scuffing, edge wear, and full separation to spine. The record is included. Albums of All Time. Was the sound of the Beatles fully embracing the recording studio as a sonic canvas, free to pursue musical ideas and possibilities that would reshape rock forever. It speaks volumes that the first song the band worked on upon entering Abbey Road studios in April 1966 would have been impossible to replicate live – a swirl of hazy guitar, backward tape loops, kaleidoscopic drum tumble, and John Lennon’s voice recorded to sound like the Dalai Lama singing from the highest mountaintop. ” They titled it “The Void” and later renamed it “Tomorrow Never Knows. ” “I was wondering how George Martin would take it, Paul McCartney later recalled. Martin’s response: Jolly interesting. The Beatles’ lives were changing too: Lennon had taken LSD at this point, George Harrison was deepening his interest in Eastern mysticism, and McCartney was getting into avant-garde composition. All those influences came through here. Wasn’t totally without precedent. The Beatles’ previous album. 35, had a similar experimental introspect. Could be volume one and volume two. ” But no band, including the Beatles, had tried anything like McCartney’s strikingly mature art song “Eleanor Rigby, ” Lennon’s trippy tape-loop swirl “I’m Only Sleeping, ” or Harrison’s “Taxman, with its cutting groove and lyrics that took shots at British politicians. It made sense that the disappointing live shows the band played in the summer of 1966 would be their last. Came out, they’d already entered another world. Check out my other items.
