BEAUTUFUL LP! Many people do not like the Capitol Albums, but I love them, and this is my favorite. A true work of art, from the With The Beatles inspired cover but changed to fit the U.S vibe, and the songs are magnificent! I'd play it over and over and over again on repeat. I own a 3rd Pressing, Just such a wonderful LP. -
out of twelve tracks Capitol pulled ten tracks from the With The Beatles album this is classed as a compilation rather the actual beatles album of course
-
Edited 9 months agoI have a Los Angeles mono 3rd pressing with both sides having the Side 1 center label. Anyone know of this mistake? -
I have a Meet The Beatles lp ST-2047 that has The Early Beatles label on side two of the vinyl. All the songs though are from Meet The Beatles. I need Help!
-
i have an interesting case where all the outer is correct but the label is apple and gives the wrong credits i'm thinking the original one broke but if you know anything about this please let me know
-
I have a mono T-2047 that I can´t find on Discogs
It has an Olive Green title on the front cover and George Martin Credit on the back.
ASCAP (Side-2, Track-1 & 3), the rest all BMI on labels
The labels are like https://www.discogs.sitioby.com/release/15248258-The-Beatles-Meet-The-Beatles
except for no Stereo and T-2047 instead of ST-2047
Matrix / Runout (Label A): T-1-2047-G-12-1
Matrix / Runout (Label B): T-2-2047-F-13-1
Matrix / Runout (Runout A stamped): 3
Matrix / Runout (Runout B stamped): 2 and a sun or a 6-pointed star
Can anyone help me identify this press? -
I still have my Meet the Beatles, Mono, that I purchased, probably, in 1964. The lettering is dark brown and the first 2 tracks on side 1 are BMI and all the rest are ASCAP. This configuration isn't listed above. So, I don't know which press it is. Can anyone help me? Thank you.
-
Up at the top is Genre, Style, Year. The Year is stating 1963. Should not this be 1964?
-
I can't find my version either. Mine has Beatles in brown, no Martin credit, 3 in bottom right back corner. All songs BMI except don't bother me & till there was you which are ASCAP.
Run out side A: ST-2047-W1
Run out side B: ST-2047-B4
-
I am so confused! I have a 1964 T-2047 (T-X-1-2047) matrix T1 2047 P17 pressing but unlike any other copy I've found it only credits 2 songs to BMI, not 3. (I want to hold your hand & I wanna be your man). Anybody else have a 2 BMI press?
