Digitally remastered by Peter Mew (2000, Abbey Road Studios, London, England).
For the six years the Beatles were recording for Capitol Records, the Fab Four ascended to top of the American and British charts an astonishing 27 times. This single-disc compilation brings those hits together in one place to span every phase of the foursome's highly influential career. Early Merseybeat-flavored sides like "Love Me Do" (the band's first Stateside hit), "She Loves You," and "I Want To Hold Your Hand" struck a chord early on with hordes of screaming teens. Unfortunately, this found the band temporarily dismissed as mere teen idols despite these numbers coming as a result of the vaunted Lennon/McCartney songwriting partnership.
The timeless "Yesterday" struck a worldwide chord (and subsequently became one of the most played songs of all time) and Liverpool's favorite sons soon found themselves shifting gears. They were soon dabbling with flower power ("All You Need is Love"), character-driven storytelling ("Eleanor Rigby"), and allowing glimpses behind the Beatles curtain ("Hey Jude," "The Ballad of John & Yoko"). By the time "The Long and Winding Road" became the Beatles' chart-topping swan song, popular music's landscape had been permanently altered.

When I was a kid, I had all the original recordings. This CD brings back the thrill of the Fab Four as though it was yesterday. Beautifully remastered, and well worth it. I would have liked a few more favorites on this CD, but like anything else you can't seem to get enough of, The Beatles are still right up there! I just had to buy my son his OWN copy!

Good, but . . .
This is a good album, but be aware that it is bandlimited to 16kHz.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No The best collection CD from the fab four the BEATLES!
Beatles 1 has all twenty seven number one U.S. and U.K. hit singles by John, Paul, George and Ringo. The CD is excellent with some of my favorite beatle songs like "A Hard Days Night", "Ticket To Ride", "Penny Lane", "All You Need Is Love" and "Let It Be". Maybe the Beatles will someday make a second volume from this colletion with more U.S. and U.K. hit singles from the Billboard charts?

The Ragged School has a special place in the heart of all American Jacobites fans in that it was the first released on these shores by the venerable Twin/Tone label. Peter Jesperson, in his infinite rock & roll wisdom -- after all, he gave us the Replacements, didn't he? -- knew he liked it immediate, raw, and with no bullsh*t attached, and Nikki Sudden, Dave Kusworth, the late Epic Soundtracks, and Mark Lemon got it, along with a boatload of session players contributing on a track or two. The Ragged ...
