Danger! Submitted on: 2009-11-14 |

| Watch out! This compilation might whet your appetite for more and more Beatles music. Each of the tracks is a winner (with the arguable exception of Phil Spector's crazily over-the-top production on the last track, "The Long and Winding Road"), and they're presented chronologically so you hear how the group's sound evolved. Unfortunately for your wallet, chances are you'll find yourself thinking of other Beatles tunes that didn't hit No. 1 in the U.S. or U.K. and feel compelled to seek them out on CD as well. |

Superb Introduction to the Greatest Band of All Time Submitted on: 2009-10-24 |

I've been a Beatles fan since before I was in grade school. I grew up listening to my dad's Capitol LP's and my first cassette tape was The Beatles 20 Greatest Hits which was released in the early 80's. This CD is an excellent compilation of all their number one hits from the US and UK. It shows the change in style of the Beatles music from 1962 to 1970 from being a "simple" rock band to creating some of the most innovative, not to mention memorable, music to come out of the 60's. The CD starts out with "Love Me Do", "From Me To You" and "She Loves You". These three tracks are presented in their original mono mix while the rest of the album is in stereo. I especially like that "From Me To You" is in mono because the stereo version had the hard pan of vocals on one side with bass, rhythm and drums on the other. In mono everything is centered. From the beginning and up to "Help" the tracks on here are mostly on the lighter side. Paul's "Yesterday" starts to show a more serious side to the band and from there you can really see their music change from songs like the happy and fun "I Want To Hold Your Hand" to music about prostitutes, "Day Tripper", and loneliness, "Eleanor Rigby". While some may complain that their favorites are not on here (there isn't a single track from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band) that's not the point of this collection. This CD is a compilation of their number one singles and should be viewed as such.
Now, I bought this album for less than ten bucks and before the new remastered CD's were released. I had most of these songs on older CD's so my purchase was to get a taste of what the remastered one's would sound like. Well, I wasn't dissapointed because the quality of these versions is clearly superior to the ones from 1987 and are on par with the new remasters as well. Now that the remasters are out I would recommend this collection for the casual Beatle fan or somebody that's never heard (Oh, how I envy you) this wonderful music from, IMO, the greatest band of all time. |

Fab 4 forever Submitted on: 2009-10-19 |

| What a great deal. This is one of a few albums I can honestly say that I love every song! I was in the 3rd grade when these guys hit our shores with these songs, but good music stands the test of time. I don't have audiophile tastes or the keen sense of hearing to compare the original to the remastered, but I know what I like, and this music is still great fun to listen to after all these years. |
