  1. IMHO, Capital’s policy was “as many albums as possible”. Up until Sergeant Pepper, which was released properly, Capitol put out 8 albums of 11 (or occasionally 12) songs, plus Help! which had only 7 plus movie soundtrack filler, while the rest of the world got 7 albums of 14 (rarely 13) songs. Though occasionally the Capitol albums seemed to be themed, like Rubber Soul being folkish or The Beatles’ Second Album being kickass because it was largely the rock’n’roll covers left off Meet the Beatles.Report

    Mom’s copy of this album was a British import (mono) and it always freaked me out to hear other peoples’ copies of RS.Report

  3. My fave Beatles period is Rubber Soul-Revolver. Great piece, thanks for sharing. Had to give RS a listen after reading it.Report
