Canadian Beatles Albums Identification Guide Updated: 22 De 16
Canadian Beatles Albums Identification Guide Updated: 22 De 16 Type 1 Rainbow Label Capitol Capitol Records of Canada contracted Beatlemania long before their larger and better-known counterpart to the south. Canadian Capitol's superior decision-making brought Beatles records to Canada in early 1963. After experimenting with the release of a few singles, Capitol was eager to release the Beatles' second British album in Canada. Sources differ as to the release date of the LP, but surely by December 2, 1963, Canada's version of With the Beatles became the first North American Beatles album. Capitol-USA and Capitol-Canada were negotiating the consolidation of their releases, but the US release of The Beatles' Second Album had a title and contained songs that were inappropriate for Canadian release. After a third unique Canadian album, album and single releases were unified. From Something New on, releases in the two countries were nearly identical, although Capitol-Canada continued to issue albums in mono only. At the time when Beatlemania With the Beatles came out, most Canadian pop albums were released in the "6000 Series." The label style in 1963 was a rainbow label, similar to the label used in the United States but with print around the rim of the label that read, "Mfd. in Canada by Capitol Records of Canada, Ltd. Registered User. Copyrighted." Those albums which were originally issued on this label style are: Title Catalog Number Beatlemania With the Beatles T-6051 (mono) Twist and Shout T-6054 (mono) Long Tall Sally T-6063 (mono) Something New T-2108 (mono) Beatles' Story TBO-2222 (mono) Beatles '65 T-2228 (mono) Beatles '65 ST-2228 (stereo) Beatles VI (mono) T-2358 Beatles VI (stereo) ST-2358 NOTE: In 1965, shortly before the release of Beatles VI, Capitol-Canada began to release albums in both mono and stereo. -

Beatles Cover Albums During the Beatle Period
Beatles Cover Albums during the Beatle Period As a companion to the Hollyridge Strings page, this page proposes to be a listing of (and commentary on) certain albums that were released in the United States between 1964 and April 1970. Every album in this listing has a title that indicates Beatles-related content and/or a cover that is a parody of a Beatles cover. In addition, the content of every album listed here is at least 50% Beatles-related (or, in the case of albums from 1964, "British"). Albums that are not included here include, for example, records named after a single Beatles song but which contain only a few Beatles songs: for example, Hey Jude, Hey Bing!, by Bing Crosby. 1964: Nineteen-sixty-four saw the first wave of Beatles cover albums. The earliest of these were released before the release of "Can't Buy Me Love." They tended to be quickly-recorded records designed to capitalize rapidly on the group's expanding success. Therefore, most of these albums are on small record labels, and the records themselves tended to be loaded with "filler." Possibly, the companies were not aware of the majority of Beatle product.

Take a Chance 4. Pea Jacket Hop 5. Swinging Papa 5. Japanese Beatles 6. Lookout for Charlie The label not only spells "Beatle" correctly but also lists the artist as "The Schoolboys." The liner notes show that this album was released before the Beatles' trip to America in February, 1964. -

The Beatles and the Counterculture
TCNJ JOURNAL OF STUDENT SCHOLARSHIP VOLUME XII APRIL, 2010 THE BEATLES AND THE COUNTERCULTURE Author: Jessica Corry Faculty Sponsor: David Venturo, Department of English ABSTRACT Throughout the 1960s, the Beatles exerted enormous influence not only as a critically acclaimed and commercially successful band, but also in the realm of social and cultural change. A number of factors facilitated the Beatles‟ rise to success, including the model of 1950s rock „n‟ roll culture, their Liverpudlian roots, and a collective synergy as well as a unique ability to adapt and evolve with their era. As both agents and models of change, the Beatles played a key role in establishing three main attributes of the embryonic counterculture: the maturing sensibility of rock music, greater personal freedom as expressed by physical appearance, and experimentation with drugs. United by the goal of redefining social norms, activists, protestors, hippies, and proponents of the growing counterculture found in the Beatles an ideal representation of the sentiments of the times. Embodying the very principle of change itself, the Beatles became a major symbol of cultural transformation and the veritable leaders of the 1960s youth movement. “All you need is love, love, love is all you need” (Lennon-McCartney). Broadcast live on the international television special, “Our World,” the Beatles performed “All You Need is Love” for an unprecedented audience of hundreds of millions around the world. As confetti and balloons rained down from the studio ceiling, the Beatles, dressed in psychedelic attire and surrounded by the eccentric members of Britain‟s pop aristocracy, visually and musically embodied the communal message of the 1967 Summer of Love. -
The Beatles and the Crisis of Self-Identity
Sosland Journal 77 THE BEATLES AND THE CRISIS OF SELF-IDENTITY Jared Gutzmer “Ringo- a lovely performer. George- a mystical unre- alized talent. But John and Paul, Saints John and Paul, were, and made, and aureoled and beatifi ed and eternalized the concept that shall always be known, remembered and deeply loved as The Beatles” -Leonard Bernstein The Beatles are one of the most popular bands of all time. This is an undisputed fact no matter the location. They were so popular that in America, they had to stop touring due to the screaming fans which caused the band not to be able to hear themselves. Never before was there a group that was so incredibly popular in history. This popularity and other fac- tors led the members of the Beatles to change as individuals and as a group as they matured musically and mentally. Their identity shifted from a group identity to a self-identity. From the Beatles fi rst album, Please Please Me, to their last, Let It Be, the shift in their identity can be seen through their music and the appearances that led to individualism and eventually their downfall. 78 Sosland Journal The Music “It would not seem quite so likely that the accompany- ing fever known as Beatlemania will also be success- fully exported. On this side of the Atlantic it is dazed stuff.” -Jack Gould, New York Times television critic The Beatles music and lyrics changed drastically from their fi rst to last album due to adapting to a changing soci- ety, musical maturity, and their increased popularity. -
Suing the Beatles and Others: Perils and Precedents of Celebrity Lawsuits Presented to the Sxsw Conference Cle Program March
1 SUING THE BEATLES AND OTHERS: PERILS AND PRECEDENTS OF CELEBRITY LAWSUITS PRESENTED TO THE SXSW CONFERENCE CLE PROGRAM MARCH 2016 BY STAN SOOCHER, ESQ. Denver, Colorado Editor-in-Chief, Entertainment Law & Finance Author, Baby You’re a Rich Man: Suing The Beatles for Fun & Profit Associate Professor, Music & Entertainment Industry Studies University of Colorado Denver Campus Box 162, P.O. Box 173364 Denver, CO 80217-3364 303-556-4066 [email protected] www.stansoocher.com Celebrities, with deep pockets and media spotlights, are natural lightning rods for litigation. The Beatles were a prime example of artists suing and being sued. The band’s most important legacy, of course, was their music, and influence on cultural and sociological changes. But few celebrities encountered as many legal disputes as did the Beatles. Many of the legal issues the Beatles faced were forerunners for today’s music industry. From early issues with crowd control as Beatlemania took hold in the United Kingdom in 1963 and the United States in 1964, to disputes over merchandising, management, intra-band rights, sound recordings, music publishing, copyright infringement, immigration, taxes and more, the Beatles faced—and continued to face long after they broke up—an array of issues that reflected where the music industry was headed. My recent book Baby You’re a Rich Man: Suing The Beatles for Fun & Profit (ForeEdge/University Press of New England) takes a close-up, investigative look at some of these concerns, as did a chapter from a prior book I wrote, They Fought the Law: Rock Music Goes to Court, that focused on the Beatles’ long-running music royalty battle with Capitol-EMI Records. -
“Nothing Is Beatleproof!” in What Context?
Thesis, 15 hec Spring 2010 Master in Communication Applied Information technology / SSKKII University of Gothenburg Report No. 2010: 098 ISSN: 1651-4769 “Nothing is Beatleproof!” In what context? The communicationArt and the artist'sbetween image the Beatlesas communication and their audience, and the importance of context in the formation of the band’s image Author: EIRINI DANAI VLACHOU Supervisor: BILYANA MARTINOVSKI, PhD EIRINI DANAI VLACHOU “Nothing is Beatleproof!”* In what context? Art and the artist's image as communication ABSTRACT Art is often defined as a process of creation guided by artist’s intention. However, artwork as a means of expression is also a communicative medium. Does context and audience influence artwork and identity of artists? How? Can one define an artwork as a co-design between artist and context, including the audience? What is the role of communication in this process? The purpose of the thesis is to explore the idea of art as a communicative co-design process by studying the relation between the popular music band Beatles and its context. Is their image or identity a result of a marketing intention or a co-design, which occurred between the band and their audience and colleagues? The band’s artistic approaches, patterns and strategies are viewed from a communi- cation perspective. Answers to the above questions are found in communication theories related to cre- ative processes, production and the media, studies in aesthetic theories and popular culture, and examples of communication between the band and its audience as well as between the band and other artists. The present study finds that interaction with audience had a profound effect on the Beatles’ art and image. -

Of Beatlemania “Comes Together” for Wilton Library Benefit June 13
NEWS Contact: Janet Crystal Wilton Library wilton library association, inc Phone: (203) 762-3950 Ext. 226 137 Old Ridgefield Road Fax: (203) 834-1166 ct Wilton, 06897-3000 E-mail: [email protected] Telephone: 203.762.3950 May 13, 2009 Facsimile: 203.834.1166 www.wiltonlibrary.org FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The “Cast” of Beatlemania “comes together” for Wilton Library Benefit June 13 Wilton, CT – Whether a child of the ’60s, the ’90s or any decade, everyone can join the fun at Wilton Library’s fund-raiser when The “Cast” of Beatlemania performs at the Clune Center at Wilton High School on Saturday, June 13 at 7:30 p.m. It has been forty years since the last live performance of the Beatles on the rooftop of their Saville Row Apple building and with a little Help! from the library, people will be able to enjoy the “live” sounds of one of the most prolific bands in rock ‘n’ roll history. Beatlemania was a Broadway hit show back in the 1970’s that featured outstanding Beatle impersonators in a multi-media tribute to the most celebrated musical group of all time. After a successful run on Broadway, the show opened to packed houses in L.A. and London. The “Cast” of Beatlemania features four very talented musicians and actors, who have devoted their musical careers to recapturing the sound and spirit of John, Paul, George and Ringo and who brought The Beatles magic to audiences around the world. Tracing the group’s short but profound career from its arrival in America through its psychedelic “Sergeant Pepper” era, the show features a solid dose of Beatles’ classics from 1963 to 1969.
