Description:
Step back in time with this vintage Beatles 7" single, released by Capitol Records in 1964. This iconic piece of music history features two of the Beatles' most popular songs: 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' and 'I Saw Her Standing There'. Both songs were written by the legendary songwriting duo, John Lennon and Paul McCartney, and have left an indelible mark on the history of rock and roll.
'I Want to Hold Your Hand' was the Beatles' first American number-one hit, marking the start of the British Invasion of the American music industry. It was recorded using four-track equipment, a first for the Beatles, and its release was met with over a million advance orders in the UK alone. The song went on to become the Beatles' best-selling single worldwide, selling more than 12 million copies.
On the flip side, 'I Saw Her Standing There' is the opening track on the Beatles' debut albums in the UK and the US. The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 1964, remaining there for 11 weeks and peaking at No. 14. In 2004, it was ranked No. 139 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
This record is in very good condition, with its original sleeve showing some age and a few small scuffs. The vinyl itself is also in very good condition. This is a must-have for any Beatles fan or vintage vinyl collector.
