Beatles medley orange 12 single. What is this?

[Guy]

I have an orange 12" single that is titled beatles medley with drum and bass. Anyone know about this and can tell me more? Is it the same as the disconet beatles medley? It looks like a test pressing. It sounds really good. No date, label etc.

well the way to know if it is the disconet beatles medley is by the tracklisting. This is the information of the beatles disconet medley:

13:33 138 BPM - 163 BPM

THE BEATLES "Day Tripper"
THE BEATLES "Tax Man"
THE BEATLES "Birthday"

THE BEATLES "I Should Have Known Better"

THE BEATLES "All My Loving"
THE BEATLES "I Saw Her Standing"
THE BEATLES "Magical Mystery Tour"

Yes, that is the same track listing. Thanks for the info. The record is one sided and only has track listings, no date, no company etc. I guess it was a test pressing.
Thanks again, Guy

From Ray Lenahan, where did you find that? I did that Beatles medley back in 1978 or so. I had anly 50 of The Orange lable discs printed in Ft Lauderdale Just to see what people thought of the medley. I only have 2 of those myself. I sent one to Mike Wilkenson of Disconett fame and that's how it got on Disconett. By the way I did that medley on a Teac reel to reel using the old razor blade and splicing block method. It took forever to assemble all the little bits of tape I had cut . Then I took the master to a studio in Miami and did the overdubs. It's me playing drums too. A bass player named Chuck played bass. and my friend Jo Fo arranged for the studio for free. We split the disconet money 3 ways and made a whopping $300.00 each. Ha !!!! I know someone mad a bundle bootlegging the thing

I found 2 more of my orange lable Beatles records in my garage. Untouched since pressing back in the late 70s . There are only 50 of these in the world. However it is exactly the same mix as the disconet. The 50 were pressed first, just to give out to my friends. I would sell one copy
