Beatles, The/George Harrison 45

Question
Hi I have a George Harrison 45 of My Sweet Lord. Both sides have My Sweet Lord. Apple Label. Is there any history on this? Maybe just a promotional thing?
Thanks, Jerry

Answer
Hi -

45s with the song on both sides were commonly distributed to radio stations to ensure that the correct song was played (rather than to accidentally play the B-side of the song being promoted)
They don't generally carry much value but would generally be worth a couple dollars more than a regular 45.  I would expect it to be worth about $15-20.
