A rare UK-exclusive export pressing of ‘Let It Be’ (catalogue number: P-R 5833). Unlike the standard UK pressing (R 5833), which features the Apple label, the early pressings of this export version were pressed on the Parlophone label. As it was sold exclusively for overseas markets and US military bases, it never entered general circulation within the UK; consequently, the number of copies pressed was extremely limited. The combination of the ‘P-’ prefix, the Parlophone label and its low survival rate means that this single remains highly sought-after amongst avid collectors as one of the most elusive Beatles singles.
