Double-sided 12˝ Apple Corps acetate disc of George Harrison’s 1969 Zapple album Electronic Sound. Both green “Custom Recording” labels are printed “Apple Corps Ltd. 3 Savile Row London W.1.” The typed text reads “Electronic Sounds, George Harrison, Stereo, side one (1)” on one label and “Electronic Sounds, George Harrison, Stereo, side two (2)” on the other. On playback, the acetate has a brighter high end than the commercially released album.
Released in Britain on May 9, 1969, Electronic Sound was one of just two albums issued by Zapple before the label closed, alongside John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s Unfinished Music No. 2: Life With The Lions. The two lengthy Moog synthesizer pieces were recorded at Sound Recorders in Los Angeles in November 1968 and at Kinfauns, Harrison’s Surrey home, in February 1969, after his own Moog system arrived in England. The Beatles later used Harrison's Moog IIIP on four tracks on Abbey Road.
Condition (VG-): The disc shows minor surface marks on both sides. The labels are clean, with light toning and wear.
From the Mark Erbach Collection.
