1. First pressing, December 4, 1995. This is first Beatles single with new song after 25 years. Free As A Bird was recorded by John Lennon in demo form but never finished, and in 1994 the type was entrusted to Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. The outcome is an elevation of the simple beauty of John’s original demo to much higher level. The original EP sleeves have diagonal-cut upper and lower rear flaps and bar-code on the back side.
