Second Album - Beatles (The) (Cassette)

  The Beatles' Second Album--A Study In Influences
Review created: 04/18/02
by: sparkospunky -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Vintage music by <b>The Beatles</b>, interesting cover tunes

Cons:
An American issue, lacks the structure of the fourteen British titles

Second Album by The Beatles is somewhat of a misnomer--the Capitol-EMI record conglomerate released both British and American versions of some of the earliest albums by The Beatles, simply to make more money. As a result, we have albums like Second Album, Yesterday And Today, and Hey Jude, which were released in America and which presented blends of the contemporaneous British releases, along with singles that didn't appear on the British albums. Second Album is indeed the second American release, but actually the third album released overall. I was rummaging through my old cassette tape...

  She Loves You, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah! (Where It All Began W/O)
Review created: 04/15/03
by: waynio -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Outstanding covers of R&B hits; the early Beatles sound

Cons:
Only five Lennon-McCartney songs

When the British Invasion began in 1964, I was but a wee, semi-conscious 4-year old in San Francisco. I don't recall the day of JFK's assassination or the Beatles' appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. For me, 1965 was the real turning point, when my world changed in all kinds of ways. So many memories. Better put 'em down now before the Mad Cow kicks in. Dad bought a Ford Mustang, white hardtop with red interior, and drove Mom

  It's Mediocre Pop, But It's Mediocre Pop By The Beatles.
Review created: 08/31/00
by: RockReview -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
A great original and a couple good covers.

Cons:
Not much variety and only 5 original Beatles tracks.

In 1964, Beatlemania swept across America after The Beatles released their first album in America and made their infamous debut performance on The Ed Sullivan Show. The Beatles satisfied their rabid fans by quickly releasing their second album in the same year. This may not have been a very good decision. THE BEATLES' SECOND ALBUM had plenty of commercial success and has a Beatles classic, but it was no more than a decent collection of originals and covers that doesn't live up to their first album. The album starts off with one of six covers, John Lennon's version of Chuck Berry's "Roll Over..
