Lese das gerade. Beatlebum, hat es in Deutschland wirklich die US-Fassungen gegeben? Als was? wo waren die Unterschiede?
Wenn Du mal oben schaust, da hat Hank Williams die einzelnen Alben samt der Titel „gelistet“. ;)
Die Something New war z.b. eines meiner ersten Beatles Alben. Gekauft 1975 für 19,50 DM bei Karstadt. Dann habe ich aber den rechten Weg zu den Originalversionen gefunden.
Das erste US Album war laut AMG übrigens Introducing…The Beatles auf Vee-Jay.
The first Beatles album released in the U.S., Introducing…The Beatles is a slightly abridged version of Please Please Me, which had been released in the U.K. four months earlier. It includes two fewer tracks than its British counterpart, deleting „Please Please Me“ and „Ask Me Why.“ Today, of course, there's no reason to prefer it to Please Please Me, which was released in the U.S. in 1987, but from 1963 to 1965, when Capitol Records belatedly released the material on The Early Beatles, this (plus some inferior Vee Jay repackagings) was the only American album containing some of the Beatles' initial recordings.
1 I Saw Her Standing There Lennon, McCartney
2 Misery Lennon, McCartney
3 Anna (Go to Him) Alexander
4 Chains Goffin, King
5 Boys Dixon, Farrell
6 Love Me Do Lennon, McCartney
7 P.S. I Love You Lennon, McCartney
8 Baby It's You Bacharach, David, Williams
9 Do You Want to Know a Secret Lennon, McCartney
10 A Taste of Honey Marlow, Scott
11 There's a Place Lennon, McCartney
12 Twist and Shout Medley, Russell
Das dürfte wohl ein begehrtes Sammlerstück sein.
