Description
From Wikipedia - Por Siempre Beatles is a compilation album by the Beatles, released in 1971 in Spain (as EMI/Odeon J060-04973)[1]. It contains various songs from 1965–1970 that had not appeared on a British studio album by the Beatles.
The album's content is similar to that of a planned compilation LP titled Beatles' Celebration, which EMI's Odeon subsidiary had begun publicising in 1968 until the project was cancelled due to a lack of authorisation from Parlophone. This decision was in keeping with a condition imposed by the Beatles while renegotiating their recording contract in 1967.
Por Siempre Beatles – the title of which translates as Forever Beatles or Beatles Forever – was notable for the inclusion of the songs "The Inner Light" and "I'm Down", the B-sides to "Lady Madonna" and "Help!", respectively. By 1971, these two tracks, together with the 1970 B-side "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)" (which was not included on Por Siempre), represented the only Beatles songs that had not appeared on one of the group's UK or US albums. The Spanish compilation therefore became highly sought after by Beatles collectors.
