A Hard Days Night, All Their Own Work

There were 8 months between The Beatles debut album, Please Please Me and it's follow up With The Beatles. A further 8 months and A Hard Day's Night arrived in stores.

By the summer of 1964 John, Paul, George and Ringo were household names, not only in the UK, but globally! This third UK album was a first. Not only a film soundtrack, but also their first album to contain purely Lennon & McCartney compositions.

Until now there had been no corresponding album releases between Parlophone records in the UK and Capitol in America. Finally in the states there is a soundtrack album sharing the same title, but that's where the similarity ends. It was not even released by Capitol.

To discover the full story of this ground breaking album listen to episode 64 of Fixing A Hole. The Beatles Podcast You Didn't Know You Needed.
