1962–1966 (or the Red Album) is a compilation of the Beatles' greatest hits from 1962 to 1966. It was released with 1967–1970 (or the Blue Album), a compilation of their greatest hits from 1967 to 1970.

The Beatles themselves participated in selecting the songs for inclusion, as well as the colours and pictures. The colour red was chosen as a tribute to one of their favourite football teams (Liverpool F.C.). Even though the group had had success with cover versions of songs, most notably with "Twist and Shout," which made #2 on the Billboard charts, only songs composed by the Beatles themselves were included. Songs performed by the Beatles as solo artists were also considered for inclusion, but like the cover songs, limited space resulted in this idea having to be abandoned. Popular songs such as "Do You Want to Know a Secret?" and "I Saw Her Standing There" were omitted because they were only released as singles in the U.S., and not in the UK.

[edit] Release variations

  • Original 1973 release: Apple SKBO-3403 (Whole and sliced apples in red background)
  • Second pressings: Capitol SKBO-3403 (Capitol target logo on back of album cover, red labels with "Capitol" in light red at bottom. There are also copies erronesously pressed with the BLUE labels for the 1967-1970 pressings)
  • First red vinyl issue: Capitol SEBX-11842 (Capitol dome logo on back of album cover, large dome logo at top of labels)

[edit] Track listing

  • The CD version was released on two discs for the price of two albums, though it could have fit on to a single disc. EMI stated that this was done to match the release of The Beatles 1967–1970.
  • The CD version used new digital masters. The first four tracks on the CD release are in mono. The rest of the tracks are in stereo and the following tracks made their CD stereo debut with this release: "All My Loving", "Can't Buy Me Love", "A Hard Day's Night", "And I Love Her" and "Eight Days a Week". See Mix Variations below.
  • A notable difference between the UK and U.S. version was eliminated in the CD release as the song "Help!" does not have the "James Bond" style intro as on the American "Help!" soundtrack album.
  • This is the first appearance of "From Me to You" and "A Hard Day's Night" on a U.S. Capitol/Apple album
  • All tracks written by Lennon-McCartney.
