Tomorrow Never Knows

As the seller describes this is likely to be the Commercial release , in light of the change in version on the Commercial release of Revolver this disc could have a greater value than other acetates that do not have unique or alternate mixes , having said that I can't see that the reserve price was ever going to be achieved.

 

Auction Descriptions

This record was from the home of Sir George Martin, given as a gift to one of his good friends. This is an original studio acetate single recording of The Beatles, artists John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and George Harrison performing "Tomorrow Never Knows" which according to Beatles information was recorded April 1966 at Studio 3. This version sounds the same as the version on the Revolver album. The back side of this single is flat and smooth. See photo.
Some say this song transformed rock and defined the psychedelic years of the 1960's. The date and location information can be confirmed by research in any reputable book or website. This 45 single recording has the wording "MADE IN GT. BRITAIN EMIDISC RECORDING BLANK" at the top of the label. In the middle of the label is says "TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS". At the bottom of the label it says "E.M.I. tape limited Hayes Middlesex England". A certificate of authenticity signed by Al Prince.

This is 7" in diameter and recording sounds fine but with heavy white noise in the background probably due to the condition of this record... no skips but there are visible scratches however, they do not seem to affect or interrupt the sound other than the white noise and occasional pops which seem to blend in with this kind of song (... if you know this song there are many different kinds of sounds on it).
