Beatles.....think it was Yellow Submarine. They opened a shop in Baker Street selling similar costumes to those on the cover of their LP in the 60s

First Beatles release (R 5722) - "Hey Jude" / "Revolution"

I thought it was Mary Hopkins.
This site below says there were 4 released simultaneously. It says:
The first singles to be released by Apple in the UK and US were the batch known as Our First Four, comprising The Beatles' "Hey Jude", Mary Hopkin's "Those Were The Days", Jackie Lomax' "Sour Milk Sea" and The Black Dyke Mills Band's "Thingumybob". The first LP release from Apple Records was George Harrison's Wonderwall Music.
Does this help?

Other sites, such as Wikipedia (can't always be trusted, I know) support Kempie's answer.
