There appear to be two Dick James acetates of Like Dreamers Do and reporting errors has lead to confusion This page is currently a composite of all info and I will try and unpick : a) if there are two discs , probably yes and if so b)which sales match each disc. Version A Unknown mix if any, of a track from the famous Decca Sessions. Version B a demo cut in 1963 or 1964 for the purpose of promoting Lennon/McCartney songs for other artists to possibly record. This song was recorded by the Applejacks in 1964 , so this may give an indication of the Cutting date |
