Double A-sided 7” singles were initially more commonplace in the United States, where Elvis Presley is credited with racking up the most two-sided hits. But, across the Atlantic, it was The Beatles who undoubtedly popularised the format in the UK, releasing a number of classic dual singles in the 60s, including Strawberry Fields Forever/Penny Lane. With a rule here of only one double A-side per artist, we’re focusing on the period 1979 to 1993, when sales of the 7” were still thriving, long before the format sadly died out amid today’s digital age of streaming and downloads.
