Ep222: The Story of the Beatles Butcher Cover

On June 10, 1966, Capitol Records launched "Operation Retrieve", meant to recall nearly 250,000 vinyl records from across the USA. The record was The Beatles' "Yesterday & Today", a record now known as the "Butcher Cover", and highly desired by record collectors around the world. Beatles author & historian Bruce Spizer tells the tale of the album and aftermath of the recall. If you like records, just starting a collection or are an uber-nerd with a house-full of vinyl, this is the podcast for you.
