the country!
This page contains all 1966 7" singles/EPs with One Of Must Know (Sooner Or Later). It has been separated from 1966 because of the length of that page. "Blonde On Blonde" album releases with rarities and the major 1966 Dylan 7" singles/EPs with rarities are now listed here:

"One Of Us Must Know (Sooner Or Later)"/"Queen Jane
Approximately" - mono 7"
promo and commercial singles, Columbia (USA/Canada), 14 Feb 1966:
This single came out well before the release of the Blonde On Blonde
album! Which song was the A- or B-side of this single depended upon the
country, but One Of Us Must Know (Sooner Or Later) was a previously unknown
song, and Queen Jane Approximately from the 1965 mono Highway 61 Revisited
album would already have been known to fans.

The 18CD Collector's Edition of The Bootleg Series Vol. 12 - Bob Dylan 1965-1966 The Cutting Edge includes nine of the mono 7" singles released in 1965 and 1966 with new picture sleeves and a "leopard-skin" spindle with which to play the singles. Columbia 4-43541 from Feb 1966 is included as Columbia/Legacy 88875124402-(SV)5 with the US commercial single labels. The front is from the Japanese single release CBS LL-919-C below, the rear is a curious hybrid of Japanese and German single rear sleeves. |

 Columbia Special Products CSP 120-1302 (USA) - front of box scan by Hans Seegers - pink text ("VOLUME I") |
There are at least three releases of this box containing five current Columbia 7" singles: the second release shown here has the same title as this with catalogue number CSP 120-1325, with orange text, not pink as here, with a different Dylan single, I Want You/Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues (live), listed here. Manuel García Jara points out that the single selection in these boxes was completely random, so there is no point in buying one unless you know it contains a Dylan single! |

This box with pink text has Columbia 4-43541, One Of Us Must Know (Sooner Or Later) c/w Queen Jane Approximately. Hans Seegers' box also contains singles by The Creatures and Little Jimmy Dickens, but two of the five singles are missing. The remaining singles all have "PHILCO" stamped on their labels. Thanks to Gerd Rundel for finding the box on eBay illustrated with different singles:
Columbia 4-43541 Bob Dylan Queen Jane Approximately/One Of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)
Columbia 4-43480 The Creatures Turn Off The Light/It Must Be Love

Stefan Haras has a copy where the box has pink text and the same catalogue number CSP 120-1302, but a different title, "VOLUME II" instead of VOLUME I". It has the same five singles as "VOLUME I".
Hans Seegers has another copy of the box with pink text with a third Dylan 7" single, Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window? c/w Highway 61 Revisited, see here.

This is definitely the A-side of the UK release! The other side of this single was also Queen Jane Approximately from the mono Highway 61 Revisited album. Anton Wennbom's commercial orange label copy has a push-out centre, but Manuel's copy has a solid centre.
The UK single had no picture sleeve. Thanks to Roger Ford for pointing out that "from the UK Official Charts website, the single entered what was then the "Record Retailer" chart on 14 Apr 1966 From info about "Record Retailer", it seems this would probably have been based on sales in the week 4-9 April – they compiled their charts on a Tuesday for publication on Thursday, but based on postal returns which presumably would have had to be posted on the Sunday or Monday. So the UK single release must have been very early April at the latest, and possibly late March allowing for some lag before it entered the charts."
Thanks to Hans Seegers, Anton Wennbom, Manuel García Jara and Anders Lindh for information and scans.
"Queen
Jane Approximately"/"One Of Us Must Know (Sooner Or Later)"- mono 7"
singles, CBS 2053 (NL), May
1966:
This date may be wrong, because the later Dutch single
CBS 2307, Rainy Day Women
#12 & 35/Pledging My Time was definitely released in May 1966 (it entered the
Dutch charts on 21 May 1966). Tom Willems says the book "Hypnotist Collectors" by Jean-Louis Dréau and
Robert Schlockoff (Média Presse, France, 1989) gives the release date of CBS
2053 as 8 Jul 1966. CBS 2053 did not enter
the Dutch charts, so they're no help. Tom says another source gives the Dutch
release date as after 12 Aug 1966, and definitely after CBS 2307!
|
|
The Dutch single had a picture sleeve, but the A- and B-sides were reversed, so that Queen Jane Approximately was the A-side! This was the first Dutch single to have a sleeve with a different rear showing pictures of contemporary CBS Holland singles. "SUCCESS" on the rear sleeve is misspelled "SUCCES". The Dutch single has two label variations, the first shows the playing speed as "45 rpm" and the second as "45 RPM", placed slightly differently. Thanks to Francisco Lima for information and to Hans Seegers for information and scans. |

Like the Dutch single above, the Swedish single had the A- and B-sides reversed, so that Queen Jane Approximately was the A-side. The Danish single had One Of Us Must Know (Sooner Or Later) as the A-side. Even though thee singles were pressed in Oslo, Norway, I haven't found an example of a Norwegian sleeve!
Information from Hans Seegers: "Until 1973 all Scandinavian releases were pressed at the PolyGram pressing plant in Oslo, but up to 1968 the CBS companies in Norway, Denmark and Sweden printed their own picture sleeves. The labels of these Scandinavian singles are therefore completely identical, and all have 710 in the matrix number."
 CBS 202 053 (Sweden) - front of sleeve with UK single, photo found by Anders Lindh |
The single on the left has been bought by
Anders Lindh from Sweden, and is the UK pressed single as above in a
Swedish sleeve. Anders found out that the original buyer was "Marianne" (name on the rear sleeve) and it was her son who auctioned it. The single was bought in the Swedish town of Gävle in 1966 or 1967. Anders believes that this imported single release was sold legitimately in Sweden. The question is in what quantity compared with the Norwegian pressed single? Anders noticed the Scandinavian single has the UK catalogue number, which may be significant (so does the Swedish 1965 The Times They Are A-Changin' single, CBS 201 751, see Mono 7" Singles 1965.). Anders has since found two more copies like this on the Swedish auction site VinylKoll [Vinyl Check], so maybe the UK single was imported into Sweden in larger quantities. |

 CBS BA-221274 (Australia) - B-side scan by Manuel García Jara (variant 2) |
These singles had no picture sleeve. The length of the A-side is shown as 4:55. To the right of the centre hole the A-side has "CONTROL" while the B-side has the Allan's logo.
Manuel García Jara has a copy of the single where there is a narrower gap between the central CBS logo and the song titles, especially on the B-side. The Allan's logo on the B-side is equidistant between the catalogue number and the matrix number - on the B-side of Hans' copy it is lower.

distinctive triangular centre of the Rhodesian single.

The first Rhodesian release illustrated came in the same "CBS Seven Single" sleeve as used in South Africa. Amazingly, it belonged to a woman called Rosemary Burgoyne, whom I knew when she and her husband lived in Didsbury in Manchester in the late 1960s! They subsequently moved to South Africa, where she still lives, although her husband has now died. The second Rhodesian single comes in a unique yellow/brown "Seven Single" sleeve with text in English and Afrikaans.

 CBS YS-665-C (Japan) - front scan by Hans Seegers |
Side 1 had a rarity: R-0051 Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 - single edit, 2:26 (stereo) Side 2 had One Of Must Know (Sooner Or Later) but it was the regular stereo album version, not the edited version (R-0380, 3:07) or the unfaded version (R-0050, 4:49) - for both of these see above. I also misreported that Side 2 of this album had the stereo version of Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window? - this is now confirmed to be the "standard" mono version, as found on Biograph (1985, remastered CD release 1997) and the 2000/2001 Essential Bob Dylan/Ultimate Bob Dylan compilations. The only occurrence of the stereo version is on a CBS stereo acetate, see 1965. The superb stereo version is in circulation amongst collectors on several bootleg albums and should be released by Columbia. (The CBS Spanish 7" EP and singles released in 1972 are now proved to have the track in mispressed mono, not stereo.) |
