Beatles 1 is the first single-disc collection that spans every facet of the Fab Four's career, from Merseybeat mavens to punchy rockers to masters of nuanced pop-craft. The 27 chart-topping hits presented herein leave little doubt about why Beatlemania gripped the world in the '60s, beginning with the band's first stateside hit, "Love Me Do," and carrying on through scream-inducing hits such as "Can't Buy Me Love" and "A Hard Day's Night." As the '60s wore on, Lennon and McCartney grew more interested in expanding their methods of expression, as evidenced by timeless ballads such as "Yesterday" and "Hey Jude" as well as edgier rockers such as "Ballad of John and Yoko" and "Come Together." (To hear the Beatles' artistic apex, you'll still need Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band and The Beatles (White Album), neither of which generated any proper singles and therefore are not represented on Beatles 1.) Longtime Beatles fans won't find anything new here, but anyone looking to spread the gospel according to John, Paul, George, and Ringo couldn't find a more powerful dose of ammo than this.
Condition:Brand new factory sealed.
