"Hard Day’s Night, A" by The Beatles – ****

First released: 1964

The Beatles’ third album in the UK and the first to be completely written by Lennon/McCartney. On the US version of this album, only eight of the 13 tracks were included and some George Martin instrumental music was added. It would be nice if a true sound track was issued, that included the live versions of Beatles’ songs performed in the film as well as the complete George Martin score. Five of those eight tracks were also issued concurrently on "Something New", an appropriate title, I must say.
