Actually, Yellow Submarine is the first time All You Need Is Love was on an album in the UK, so the only repeat track is Yellow Submarine .

I thought you would like to see this EP.
Side A:
Side B:
This EP, containing all of the previously unreleased songs from Yellow Submarine except Only A Northern Song , was released in Thailand in 1969 and is the closest thing you’ll get to a Yellow Submarine EP released during The Beatles lifetime.

It’s a 7 inch 3 song EP, here’s a reconstructed cover i made.
The serial number is TK-277, i know that it was released in 1969 because TK-274 and TK-285 were released in 1969 and this was released in between them. As a sidenote, this isn’t an official release, i don’t whether or not it’d be considered a bootleg and i wouldn’t be surprised if The Beatles have no idea that this EP even exists. If i had to guess, this EP is rare and valuable. Maybe a fellow Beatles professional like @Ron Nasty can shed more light on this unofficial release.

What is it that makes you think it is not an official release, @Dark Overlord?

There’s no copyright notice. Take a look at the back cover of Sgt. Pepper for example, we’ll even use the Capitol version to better prove my point.

Notice that ©, that means that this is album is copyrighted, in 1967 if we want to be precise.
Now look at the Yellow Submarine EP from 1969.
Notice how there’s no ©. In fact, the only things they mention on this record is that it’s TK-277 from TK Records and contains these songs by The Beatles:
Side A:
Side B:
I’m pretty sure that if it doesn’t contain the © it means that it’s unofficial.

Apples and oranges. The copyright detail is on the U.S. Sgt. Pepper release. Would the same be on a release in Thailand? What was the custom in Thailand at that time? What were the applicable copyright laws in Thailand in 1968…
I would also note that this particular EP appears in a TK records catalog listing here:

How accurate is this discography? Well I don’t know, but the record’s presence here does suggest it was a legit release at the time.

I’ll let @Ron Nasty be the judge of that but i think it looks like an unofficial release and since there’s nothing to suggest that it’s official and i think i say without doubt that The Beatles had nothing to do with it, i think it’s an unofficial release. If it is official though that would be really cool because it’d mean that the previously unreleased songs from 1968’s Yellow Submarine were officially released as an EP somewhere.

7InchRecords has the disclaimer
Beatles records from Thailand are mainly bootlegs, no copyrights were paid for these records. They were released during the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. Only a very few of them, the 5inch ones on shellack, were distributed in warehouses.
I’d hate to start working out which are authentic.

If genuine the mono mixes would have been collapsed stereo so, aside from an alternate format, big-whoop. There are also collapsed stereo into mono ‘Let It Be ‘ and ‘Abbey Road ‘ albums along with a fake mono ‘The Ballad Of John And Yoko ‘ single. If that gets you excited they can be found online to download.
More bizarre is this

Side A – The Beatles
Track 1: ‘Hey Bulldog ‘.
Track 2: ‘Only A Northern [Song]’
Side B – The Animals
Track 1: Sky Pilot (Part 1)
Track 2: Sky Pilot (Part 2)
Why are the Beatles sharing an EP with The Animals?
And then there is the so-fake-you’d-have-to-be-Upper-Class-Twit-of-the-Year-champion-to-believe EP featuring one song each from The Beatles, Queen, America and The Beach Boys .

I find older counterfeit/bootlegged Beatles records neat. It’s different and unique and not your everyday standard Beatles record. Even if this isn’t official, it would be cool to own.
The Dicogs page gives a bit of info, but then again it’s decently rare. There is only one for sale, so it may be a tad bit inaccurate due to the lack of sources.

Thanks for that @meanmistermustard now i can say for sure that this an unofficial release. Also, something interesting i noticed is that the Discogs page says that it was released in 1968 which either means that the page is inaccurate or this Thailand bootleg is the first release of 3/4 of the Yellow Submarine songs in the same way that Kum Back is the first appearance of 5/12 songs from Let It Be although since i’ve never heard the bootleg i’m not sure if the versions on there are the same that are on the final album.

I was refering to Kum Back in that sentence just so you know, not the Thai YS EP. As for the EP, it probably is a stereo to mono folddown of the songs, the same that you’d hear on the mono Yellow Submarine .
