When Sgt. Peppers was released in 1967, the album started with the magical words "it was 20 year ago today". Well now we are 50 years later and the Beatles are still going strong on the radio, television, and every now and then even in the charts. So welcome to "It was 50 years ago today" where we will publish every day a news item about what happened that day in Beatles History...only 50 years later!

Paul and Ringo on Record Store Day
If you like to collect limited editions, then you should definitely head over to your independent record store, because both Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr will release special versions of their work.
Paul McCartney will release a 12" vinyl edition of "Maybe I'm Amazed", the live version that was originally serviced as a radio-only promotional 12” vinyl single back in 1976 to herald the release of “Wings Over America.”
SIDE A: Maybe I'm Amazed - Short Version (Mono) / Maybe I'm Amazon - Album Version (Mono)
SIDE B: Maybe I'm Amazed - Short Version (Stereo) / Maybe I'm Amazed - Album Version (Stereo)
Ringo Starr will release a 7" boxed vinyl set called simply "Ringo" and contain three 45", original picture sleeves in Apple Records Lift top box, that comes with a Record Store Day spindle.
