"The Beatles Story" the record

[bearkat77]

Here's a little info for you:

Released Nov. 23, 1964 by Capitol, who decided to get the jump on everyone when it came to telling the US fans the "true story" of their rise to fame. It features interviews, commentary, bits of songs and a narration of their lives.
Since it did not contain any new songs, not even a complete old song, it didn't reach the top of the charts. The big three record charting companies at the time, Billboard, Cash Box and Record World, did make it to the Top Ten on two of them. Peaking at #7 on Billboard and Cash Box and reaching only to #13 on Record World.

Thanks kat! I always appreciate your info. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Wow I didn't know it was from '64. I thought it was a little newer than that. Cool!

My collection wouldn't be the same without it, joe. With the prices of Beatle collectables these days, $30 is a very good bargain. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/thumbsup.gif

I got mine for less than $20, if I remember correctly.


But I still haven't listened to it yet! Argh!

Well guess what guys. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/wink.gif

Yesterday I went out and bought The Beatles Story (Marissa's record http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/wink.gif ) which you all know is this one which Marissa and kat have as their icon right now: http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/avatars/LP_-_The_Beatles_Story.gif

Ok, the one I got was in very good condition, and it was $30. I know I've seen one of these before for around $20. I was wondering if that was a fair price for it? It is a 2 record set, and in very good condition.

I was also wondering about this album, like when was it released? I can't wait to hear it (when I get a record player, hopefully soon.) And I'd appreciate any tidbits of info about this 2 record set. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/smile.gif
