DECCA F 11742

Solid centre

Date: August 1963

Withdrawn

Note: The first and the rarest of them all!!

There´s this original single label photo, shown above, in circulation among collectors but still its existence is unconfirmed.

"After a photo session on Monday 19 August, we went to Andrew and Eric´s office where they played us the first pressing of the new single "Poison Ivy" and "Fortunne Teller". It sounded better than we remembered.(...)

Monday 26 August was due to be the release date of "Poison Ivy". It was decided to withdraw it as "Come On" was still selling well and were not really happy with it as a follow-up."

(According to Bill Wyman´s book "Rolling with The Stones")
