Overview
Again, almost identical to the UK release of the same name, however, as 'Words of Love' was used on the previous EP, here EMI (Australia) replaced it with 'Kansas City'.
Despite not troubling any chart compilers, the EP remained in print until December 1978. In June 1979, EMI (Australia) recut this EP and the other Australian 70000-series Beatles EPs for reissue with revised artwork. For the recuts, EMI (Australia) went back to stereo tapes but mastered in mono, ostensibly to “maintain the feel of the original sound”. The more practical explanation was that EMI had temporarily misplaced PARLO 99, the original mono compilation tape containing the EP tracks. In this case, the tracks were taken from the Beatles For Sale LP production master tapes—PARLO 510 and 511. This reissue first appeared in September 1979.
