imagine: some poor guy at RCA had to listen to "Berlin" and decide which song would make a hit single

In a normal world, a good record, a wonderful song should sell millions of copies.

I love looking at all of these, and dreaming ...

Alfredo, is your Australian single a promo, or a stock copy? I've never even seen one of those for real, and I've been obsessed with it since seeing an Australian Zappa single once which looked the same.

I'm sure I remember this slogan being used to promote petrol (gas) in the UK in the 1960s.

I do not think that a "promo" copy of this 45 exists. The only "promo" copies I have ever seen are ordinary stock copies with a date stamped on the label. Has anyone seen a "real" promo copy?

this is a pic I must have pulled from ebay at some time - it looks like a different copy. It has a stock label with a handwritten date (11/67)
