* − under the name Bobby Keyes should be understood Bobby Keys (real name is Robert Henry Keys). An American saxophonist who performed with musicians as George Harrison, John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono and many others. But best known for his works with The Rolling Stones. In various sources he is often indicated under different names. Most likely this is a pseudonym.


Recorded at Sunset Sound, Los Angeles and Apple Studios, London.
Additional recording at The Burbank Studios, Sound Labs, and Producer’s Workshop, Los Angeles and E.M.I. Studios, London.
Remixed at Sound Labs, Los Angeles, and at Nova Sound, London (tape operator: Judy Szekeley).
Thanks to: Chris, Cynthia, Linda, Maureen, Patti, and Tina. Special Thanks to Mal Evans and Hilary Gerrard.
Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko and Garth Hudson appear courtesy Capitol Records.
Nicky Hopkins and David Bromberg appear courtesy C.B.S. Records.
Harry Nilsson appears courtesy RCA Records.
Billy Preston appears courtesy A & M Records.

Merry Clayton and Tom Scott appear courtesy Ode Records. P.A. Thanks to Kilgore Trout and all Beavers.

The following misprints are observed:

Accordian: Garth Hudson (on the cover in the title of track 4 on side 1). Misspelling of accordion is present in the first edition as well.
Correct - Accordion.
YOU'RE SIXTEEN, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL (AND YOU'RE MIND) (title of the last song of side 1 on the cover and on the label).
Correct - YOU'RE SIXTEEN.

This re-issue had changes to the sleeve. It was no longer a gatefold, on the front, the Apple and the french motto were removed, and the rear was completely changed, with a listing of the song credits. The booklet is missing.

Custom inner sleeves can be completely different and correspond to the types that EMI used at that time.



ПРИМІТКА

Уперше альбом було видано 1973 року (докладніше див. тут). Цей варіант є перевиданням 1980 року на бюджетному відділенні компанії EMI "Music For Pleasure".

Перелік музикантів, які грали на альбомі, і кредити наведені в англійській частині сторінки (взято зі зворотного боку обкладинки).
* − під ім'ям Bobby Keyes слід розуміти Bobby Keys (реальне ім'я Robert Henry Keys). Американський саксофоніст, який грав із такими музикантами, як Джордж Гаррісон, Джон Леннон, Рінго Старр, Йоко Оно і багатьма іншими. Але найбільш відомий своїми роботами з "Роллінг Стоунз". У різних джерелах він часто згадується під різними іменами. Найімовірніше, це псевдонім.

Помічено такі друкарські помилки:

Accordian: Garth Hudson (на обкладинці в назві треку 4 сторони 1). Невірне написання акордеону присутнє і в оригінальному виданні.
Вірно - Accordion.
YOU'RE SIXTEEN, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL (AND YOU'RE MIND) (назва останньої пісні сторони 1 на обкладинці та на етикетці).
Вірно - YOU'RE SIXTEEN.

Це перевидання мало зміни в обкладинці. Вона більше не була розворотною, на лицьовій стороні було видалено логотип Apple і французький девіз, а на звороті було додано кредити. Буклет відсутній.

Звичайні внутрішні пакети можуть бути абсолютно різними і відповідати тим типам, які на той час використовувала компанія EMI.
