Why was "Act Naturally," Apple 5498 designated the A-side (full Apple) instead of "Yesterday"? |

Act Naturally WAS the a-side, as was Strawberry Fields Forever. Fans didn't see it that way, though. See? The only one that shows up wrong at the Apple reissue was "All You Need is Love" (accidentally the b-side). |

Is this "All You Need Is Love" label misprint considered a rarity? |

No, the US Apple reissues are not rare. They were in print for about 5 years. The most collectable pressings are probably the spring '71 LA issue's with the black star on the A-side. Many sellers mistake these for promos. They were only made in LA, and only for a short time. The next in line would be the "75 "All rights Reserved" labels. I beleave they were in print from Sep-Dec 1975. Of coarse Frank can probably add to this, but I have hundreds of Apple singles and can safely say that they are not rare even with the mistake of swiching A and B sides on this title! |

All Apple copies of the "All You Need is Love" single show "Baby..." as the A-side. Therefore none are rare. The rarest of the reissue singles are always the target label with dome logo, and subsidiary swirl label. |
