The Beatles
A Hard Day's Night
'Patents Pending'
VG++


This Lp was released on the 10th July 1964. The 45rpm was released in April and at that time the Beatles' film had yet to get a title and as the story goes, Ringo emerged from a long days work saying "It's been a hard day," then seeing it was already dark added " 's night." This was then announced to the press as the title on the 17th of April. Ringo may have seen this phrase before in Lennons book "Sad Michael."
Holding a number 1 postition for a huge 21 weeks, from July the 25th!!!
This is also the ONLY Beatles album to have every track written by Lennon/McCartney.

I have just listened to the whole album and didn't find any less enjoyment in playback, just a little bit of occasional background noise in the quieter sections-run in and out..that's it really.
DEEP RICH BASS
