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.
Includes a 30-page color booklet documenting artwork for all the number one singles recorded by The Beatles.
Recorded at Apple, Olympic Sound, Trident and Abbey Road Studios, London, England; Pathe Marconi, Paris, France, between 1962 & 1970. Includes liner notes by George Martin.
Engineers include: Norman Smith, Geoff Emerick, Barry Sheffield.
The Beatles: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr.
Q (12/00, pp.140-1) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Its salutary to hear how people once made music that looked to the future..."
Melody Maker (11/21/00, p.60) - 5 stars out of 5 - "...Irresistible....27 Number One singles....This is as much pop culture education on one CD as any music fan needs."
NME (Magazine) (11/11/00, p.33) - 9 out of 10 - "...Undeniable, this is the whole experience of pop unfolding before our very ears..." Beatles 1 Music Review Average Rating: (3.9 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Simply Fabulous!
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?

Purchase Beatles 1 CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | U2 All That You Can't Leave Behind CD (2000)
Beatles 1
 $10.79    
"Beautiful Day" won the 2001 Grammy Awards for Record Of The Year, for Song Of The Year and for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album. "Walk On" won the 2002 Grammy Award for Record Of The Year. "Elevation" won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal. "Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of" won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
Seldom has an album title been as appropriate as ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND. Here, U2 returns to its pre-irony '80s glory days with a straightforward rock approach, leaving behind the electronics and intentional mock-decadence of POP and ZOOROPA. It quickly becomes clear however, that the band had to make those albums in order to get to the ego-free state from which this one emerges. While Larry Mullen's driving beat, Adam Clayton's insistently ...
| | Beatles Rubber Soul CD (1965)
Beatles 1
$14.95
Though some might argue that the Beatles' unprecedented evolution from British Invasion pin-ups to pop music visionaries began with BEATLES FOR SALE, RUBBER SOUL is without a doubt the first album to definitively put the Fab Four in the running for Greatest Band Ever. Virtually every aspect of the Liverpool quartet's incredibly diverse sound is in evidence here: ...
| | Beatles Revolver CD (1966)
Beatles 1
$15.65
Arguably the first psychedelic rock album, REVOLVER was praised for its musical experimentation--the Indian sounds of "Love You To," the Motown-inspired "Got To Get You Into My Life," the backwards guitar in "I'm Only Sleeping." "Tomorrow Never Knows" was ...
| | Beatles Abbey Road CD (1969)
Beatles 1
$15.65
ABBEY ROAD, recorded in the summer of 1969, was the last album recorded by the Beatles (LET IT BE was released in 1970, but recorded in early '69).
After the laborious disorganization and infighting that characterized early 1969's LET IT BE sessions (as famously captured on film), the fractious four were willing to let George Martin take the ...
| | Ozzy Osbourne Down To Earth CD (2001)
Beatles 1
$7.59
Initial pressings of DOWN TO EARTH will include regular audio tracks as well as multimedia computer files. The Enhanced portion includes live perfomance footage of Ozzy Osbourne performing with Randy Rhodes.
Six years of waiting for a new album had impatient Ozzy fans biting the heads off of live animals, but DOWN TO EARTH finally arrived. Whereas OZZMOSIS may have harkened back to Ozzy's early days of Black Sabbath, EARTH is unmistakably solo Ozzy. First single "Gets Me Through" is a radio-friendly thank you to his fans in which he exclaims "I'm not the anti-Christ or the iron man." The piano intro is reminiscent of "No More Tears." Piano is also featured in "Dreamer" and "Running Out Of Time," two of The Ozzman's most well crafted ballads. Ozzy maturing? Yes, but in a GOOD way.
Things get heavier on "No Easy Way Out," featuring the driven guitar wizardry of longtime collaborator Zakk Wylde. Joe Holmes, Ozzy's road guitarist of recent ...
| | Ozzy Osbourne Ozzmosis CD (1995) Remastered
Beatles 1
$7.59
Let us all be thankful that Ozzy's retirement didn't stick. It supposedly lasted for three days, after which he got bored and started working on this project. Heavy, riff-intensive tunes, progressive song structures and a little psychedelia give OZZMOSIS a definite Sabbath flavor. Ozzy must have been in touch ...

Beatles 1
$34.89
Long-lived British space-rockers Hawkwind debuted in 1969 and were still going strong 40 years later, despite a dizzying array of personnel shifts. This three-disc set chronicles the band's later period, from 1985's epic THE CHRONICLE OF THE BLACK SWORD, a collaboration with sci-fi author/longtime cohort Michael Moorcock, to 1997's DISTANT HORIZONS. While founding guitarist Dave Brock is the only constant from one end of this collection ...
