Picking this album up at a garage sale along with quite a few others, I was pleasantly surprised to find the album inside was actually the mono version of Beatles '65 T2228 on the Capitol colourband label (early release).  It is in VG+ condition also! No proper cover, but still a good find for a dollar.  Released in late 1964, the Beatles '65 was so popular that many artists released albums with similar titles that year; Sinatra '65, Ellington '65, Brasil '65 etc. A good early album with many hits like  I'm a Loser, Baby's in Black, I Feel Fine & Everybody's Trying to be My Baby.

In the same collection was this greatest hits, The Early Beatles, this one on the lime green Capitol Label, which is the third release of the album. The original was released early 1965 and this copy is from 1969. For me this album is really a place holder till I can find a better copy.  The condition of most of the album is VG, but with a massive scratch running through two song on the second side making that part unplayable, it needs to be replaced eventually.

Rubber Soul, released in late 1965, in my opinion, is the beginning of their best music. Musically and lyrically this album has depth and is more sophisticated, and all the songs are original music, no more covers. There is also more experimenting with instruments as on Norwegian Wood with George playing sitar.  My copy is the original mono version T 2442 VG+ condition.

From 1966 comes the first psychedelic rock album by the Beatles, Revolver. Third on the list of Rolling Stones 500 greatest albums of all time, this is another amazing and ground breaking Beatles album. This reissue from 1969 is on the lime green Capitol label ST 2576, VG+.
Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine and Tomorrow Never Knows. A little more complex than I Want to Hold Your Hand ?
