White Album - AnTrop

Double LP - Unofficial Release - Reissue

Instead of the embossed lettering, as on the original, this 1991 bootleg has the title printed on paper.
On the cover, the title ‘The Beatles’ appears in both the original version and translated into Cyrillic. Inside, instead of the original photographs, there are pencil drawings of the same portraits.
The label on the record has been reimagined with a pink apple, echoing the classic apple from the original Apple Records version.

In the Soviet Union, the lyrics to ‘Back in the USSR’ was translated and officially published in 1970; ‘Ob-la-di Ob-la-da’ was also translated and reinterpreted by Emil Horovets.

From the late 1960s onwards, people began translating foreign songs into Russian. It was common practice to press versions of records in Russian. Songs entirely in Russian were required and essential if someone wanted to be published by the official state label Melodiya.
