John Paul George Ringo In The 1970s...

Label Melvin Records
Number MR-12-S
Year 1980
Comments Pretty rare and interesting LP from the great Melvin label. It has lots of non-album single B-sides by all four solo Beatles and some other interesting/entertaining stuff. The small bits are mostly not listed on the cover.
This has nothing to do with the CD of a similar name!
Cover reads in association with Apple Records, an Overby production, 1980. Made in Afghanistan. (not true, of course!) and the labels resemble the ones of an Apple acetate.
