 All songs previously released except 'Bad Boy'
This was the first compilation album of Beatles hits (with the strange inclusion of 'Bad Boy' a song previously released in the US but not in the UK) The album failed to make the number 1 spot, probably because the fans had all the records already!
* In 1983 the budget label 'Fame' released the album with the same artwork. It has been deleted since 1990 and has never been released on CD.

Yesterday And Today
(Trunk sleeve)

The much hyped album, only because it was released with the infamous 'Butcher sleeve' which was mostly a McCartney idea, based on Capitol records dissection of the UK albums. The album was released with the sleeve and within 1 day was retracted, making the album sleeve incredibly valuable. The 'trunk' sleeve replaced the original and since 1987 all the US albums were replaced as the same as the UK versions.
