That is what a male chorus sang, according to Lewisohn. A female chorus sang "Everyone's got one".beatlefreak wrote:According to George Martin and the Abbey Road Engineers/Techs, the line was, "Oompah oompah, Stick in your jumper" (sung with a Scouse accent, of course).

Re: "Yesterday and Today", the Butcher Cover and the Trunk cover
Continued:
Apple label w/"All Rights..." print (can be found in the perimeter or elsewhere on the label)
Issued briefly in 1975 Orange label
Issued from 1976 to 1978 Purple label 1 (note perimeter print at top and bottom of label)
Issued from 1978 to 1983 Black label w/rainbow colorband (note perimeter print is now in colorband)
Issued from 1983 to 1988 Purple label 2 (note perimeter print at bottom of label only, and catalog number is also changed)
Issued from 1983 to 1991 There was also an original black label w/colorband Record Club label (stereo only). I don't have a Y&T copy of it (yet), although I've got a few other Beatles' titles with that label variation. and there is a very rare red Capitol label pressing (also which I don't have) which was mistakenly issued (Canadian red label Capitol Beatles' albums are common). After the second Purple label pressings, the American catalog was deleted, and the British catalog was issued in the U.S.

Yes, but I'd be hard-pressed to believe that the lads didn't also include the line I mentioned earlier in at least a couple of recitations.kennyhowes wrote:It's both lines at the same time. Listen close!

I heart the green labels. I'm collecting those now. For reals.

Re: "Yesterday and Today", the Butcher Cover and the Trunk cover
It definitely sounds like "Oompah oompah, Stick in your jumper" with oompah rhyming to jumper. But... listen carefully and BOTH lines are sung by different groups! I'm definitely more interested in the music and lyrics than coversbeatlefreak wrote:According to George Martin and the Abbey Road Engineers/Techs, the line was, "Oompah oompah, Stick in your jumper" (sung with a Scouse accent, of course).JakeK wrote:That line in "Walrus" was "Everybody's got one", according to Mark Lewisohn.FretlessOnly wrote:I'll go to my grave thinking that. The Beatles had messages/controversial elements everywhere.

Re: "Yesterday and Today", the Butcher Cover and the Trunk cover
As for Capitol Apple labels: My "Get Back" looks like this (picture taken from a website as my WestCoast pressing's framed on the wall):
which makes it a different label than the one listed above - here's a link to a site which lists about all US Apple label variations: http://www.fab4collectibles.com/apple_singles.htm

Re: "Yesterday and Today", the Butcher Cover and the Trunk cover
In the Playboy Interviews by David Scheff, Lennon is asked about this:
Payboy: What about the chant at the end of Walrus, "Smoke pot, smoke pot. Everybody smoke pot?"
Llennon: No, no, no. I had this whole choir saying, "Everybody's got one. Everybody's got one." But when you get thirty people, male and female, on top of thirty cellos and on top of the Beatles rock 'n' roll rhythm section, you can't hear what they're saying.
Playboy: What does "everybody got"?
Lennon: Anything. You name it -- one penis, one vagina, one a**hole. You name it.

Werner -- thanks for posting that link to that great site ! I was going "Apple Bonkers" seeing all those pictures of Apple 45s and so many different versions and pressings ... pretty cool.

Re: "Yesterday and Today", the Butcher Cover and the Trunk cover
Resurrecting the off-shoot topic here about Apple record labels and stuff ... I stumbled across this interesting web-site today, with pictures of records sleeves and some Apple 45 labels and thought I would share the link:
http://users.telenet.be/mapinguari/apple/index.htm
The site is called Apple Sleevographia -- looks like an offshoot of a Yahoo discussion group.

I know this is not Y&T, but this one is a different Apple label:
(Notice "Phil + Ronnie" etched into the inner groove)
We had this when I was a kid. (I may have it in a box in the basement; I'll have to check.)

Re: "Yesterday and Today", the Butcher Cover and the Trunk cover
Resurrecting this thread --- this Beatles Memorabila site indicates (about one-fourth the way down the scroll) that yesterday (Dec 15th) they sold the "First State, Factory Sealed, Virtually Mint Condition Monorual Butcher Cover" owned by Alan Livingston, former President of Capitol Records.
Supposedly his "very last copy".

No $$$$ were mentioned !
