COMMENTS
Very rare and limited promotional flexi disc. This 7" clear blue flexi disc was pressed in 1983 by Capitol Records, exclusively for The House Of Guitars (upsate Rochester NY music store) as a giveaway / promotional item when you purchased any of the Beatles' Capitol LP's. This rare flexi disc was limited to only a small number (1,000 copies pressed!). They were soon depleted after the giveaway started. There are 4 entries on the flexi disc (Excerpt From Christmas Message 1983, Komm Gib Mir Deine Hand, Sie Liebt Dich, Excerpt From Christmas Message 1985 15 seconds).
It was not numbered.
