The Beatles’ Story LP — Side 1

In November, 1964, Capitol Records released a 2-disc LP called The Beatles’ Story. It’s missing from the otherwise excellent series The Beatles: The Capitol Albums. The record was produced by Gary Usher and Roger Christian, both of whom had worked with Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys.

I’ll post each side of The Beatles’ Story separately, taken from a 70’s pressing. The album would have fit on a single disc, and thanks to it being so short, there was plenty of real estate to get an exceptionally good cut on the master. As a result, the sound quality is noticeably dynamic and full.
