Just noticed that Please Please Me isnt on the new album.
Strange as it certainly got to No 1 (in UK that is).
Love Me Do barely made the Top 20 but is included.
PPM is published by Dick James Music I believe, but cant imagine that is a reason for its non inclusion.

It depends on which chart you look at.
Please Please Me only made it to no. 2 according to the Guinness book and the Official Chart Company. [www.officialcharts.com]
It did make no.1 in the NME chart.
There'a discussion about it here: [www.45cat.com]
Love Me Do made it to number 1 in the US when it was reissued during the first wave of Beatlemania.
The "1" album is supposed to include the band's number one singles in the UK and US.

the beatles fully own "love me do". in order to get the publishing rights for john & paul when they were ready to release "please, please me" dick james gave back to them the rights to "love me do" as a sign of good faith.

Actually not the case, as far as I am aware.
Love Me Do was initially published by Ardmore and Beechwood, the music publishing subsidary of EMI.
The copyright came up for grabs some time ago so Paulie, through his MPL publishing empire did a purchase. I think more of a sentimental thing than a big investment deal. So I assume MPL pay the Lennon estate monies due.
Its got some similarities to the Stones early days. They signed an early publishing deal with Southern music for their first 12 months or so.
Southern is now owned by Peermusic/Sons of Peer Music Ltd.
So Allen Klein didn't quite own everything!

I hate you...but thanks.
I just bought it! I guess little Jimmy won't be getting everything on his Christmas list this year.
This was $399 Canadian last week. I've seen it go for as low as $279, but this made me pull the trigger. $229!

Interesting all the talk about Rubber Soul. I had some friends over last weekend. After a few scotches, we compared three versions of Drive My Car. First from the 24 bit USB. Very clear. Crisp. Wonderful bass. Not much mid range. Crisp treble. Next was the Stereo vinyl, from the recent box set. Much warmer and a bit louder as well. The one was preferred from the 24 bit. Next, was the version from the Mono vinyl box set. Hands down the favorite. A more rougher sound. And even a bit slower than the USB version. But much preferred. Sounded more rocking and propulsive. Very solid bass response. Treble in the perfect ratio. Wonderful mid range. And fantastic cymbal sound!
This is a fun thing to do with fellow audiophile nerds.

Another little known fact is that whilst Penny Lane is published by ATV/Sony, the copyright is actually held by the daughter of the late Robert Holmes a Court, the Australian businessman who eventually sold out to Jacko.

I saw this earlier today and I thought twice before posting it here. I'm glad you did it, so this way you (or your wallet) won't hate me even more.
