EMI FAKE  

The myth is that a student blagged an American CD manufacturer, Technetronics, to produce 5000 discs for an EMI promotion.

These were originally offered as a 3CD set of Limited Edition Deluxe Promos to celebrate The Beatles Silver Anniversary of
Love Me Do, selling for over $300 . It has been reported that each of title was limited to 500 with printed covers.

I have however only been able to trace details of a numbered 'Sessions' disc, which are hand numbered, after a while the discs were offered separately for around $125 a piece; but still a very steep price for discs sourced from vinyl.

In the summer of 1989 the last of the deluxe versions became available at a fraction of the original price and then finally the remaining stock without artwork was sold at considerably lower prices. I have seen several copies with a simple typed track listing as cover , but these maybe a dealer insert.
