A Hard Day's Night was the first Beatles album of all-original material, and the first to feature George Harrison playing his Rickenbacker electric 12-string guitar (on the opening chord of "A Hard Day's Night," for instance). The distinctive sound of the 12-string inspired countless guitarists including Roger McGuinn and David Crosby of the Byrds. The film from which these songs hail remains a classic combination of happy '60s naïveté and nascent hipster wit. Many of the most important rock bands to emerge in the latter half of the '60s came into being because of A Hard Day's Night's irresistible vibrancy. The tunes flow like the finest red wine, as the title track leads to the glorious harmonica of "I Should Have Known Better" and the powerfully poignant "If I Fell."Q (Magazine) (9/99, p.136) - Included in Q Magazine's Best Happy Albums of All Time - "...the sound of young men almost astonished by their fecundity and melodic gifts....they never sounded happier."
Q (Magazine) - Ranked #5 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums"

5 stars Back When Innocence Was Everything
Back when I was in Junior High School I went to see "A Hard Days Night." It was just great fun. It's good to have that music that you can go back to and relive the days of innocence.

5 stars Wow! Quite a triumph!
At the time, The Beatles were cutting-edge, and extremely popular. This album shows their "poppiest" side, and boy, does it really shine. The songwriting is strong, the basic British Invasion-style genre-breaking (for its time), and creative to boot. The end result was more screaming fans (especially at this point in their careers) and the start of a growing respect for Rock And Roll. Nobody thought that Elvis Presley's basic blueprint of rock music could be artistically successful, but this album was the beginning of that ideal, and the rest of the sixties did its best to show that. And even today, when it is very, very simple in comparison to some of the more artistic achievements in popular music, it still sounds fresh and original. This album is the true testament to the Beatle's popularity. If you're a fan, you have to buy this. You'd be missing out a lot.

5 stars Unbelievable piece of work
I see this album as something incredible. The level of the songs is so great that it might be mistaken as a top 5 singles compilation!! It's also known as the highest effort of Lennon's as tunesmith with The Beatles, certainly ten out of the thirteen songs were mainly penned by him. But look at the other three, McCartney babies: Can't buy me love, And I love her, Things we said today !! Absolutely amazing. I can't almost feel how scared their contemporary bands and artists must have been when listening to an album like that.

5 stars The best band of all time!!
What other rock band do you know of who's not only known for the catchy songs and their classic movies, but their album covers?! This is one of them alongside Sgt. Pepper, Meet the Beatles and Abbey Road. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!!!
