A Collection of Beatles Oldies专辑介绍 A collection of Beatles oldies (side 1) - Parlophone yellow and black labelA Collection of Beatles Oldies (subtitled But Goldies!) is a compilation album featuring a selection of songs by The Beatles recorded between 1963 and 1966. The album was released in the UK and Australia but not in the U.S.

Background
The release of this album was the result of not having any new material to release by the Beatles at the end of 1966 in the same manner of the previous three years format of two albums per year. The track "Bad Boy" had never been released by the Beatles in the United Kingdom before, but had already been released in the United States on the Capitol album Beatles VI.

The cover of this album contributed to the "Paul is dead" hoax as the road shown on the cover seems to lead into the head of the man sitting on the cover.

The album only reached number 7 in the UK album chart, perhaps because most fans already owned most of the tracks on other releases. However, the album continued to sell reasonably well, remained in print for many years and was only deleted when the compact disc age approached, thus it was never released on that format. It should be noted that six of the tracks on this LP appeared for the first time in Britain in stereo (except "She Loves You", read below.) Six were previously released as singles in Britain, and only two of the six tracks, the single, "Day Tripper/We Can Work It Out" were available in stereo on the Capitol U.S. LP "Yesterday...and Today" in the U.S. at the time. The tracks are "From Me To You" (alternate stereo take),"We Can Work It Out", "I Feel Fine", "Day Tripper"(released as a double A-side with "We Can Work It Out"),"Paperback Writer", & "I Want To Hold Your Hand". Only the single "She Loves You" was electronically re-channeled for stereo, and a stereo master still, up until this time, has not seen the light of day. While it is generally believed that the two-track master of "She Loves You" was wiped after the mono mix master was completed, experts claim to this day that a stereo master is hidden somewhere amongst the master tapes.
