**The Us version of Revolver was released on this day in 1966...Because Capitol had rush-released songs slated for this album on the 'Yesterday And Today' lp back in June, John was left with just two tracks on the album...

**'Revolver' is considered by many to be the Fabs' crowing achievement... If you were a Beatlefreak, you knew you had to get it into your life...

**My wife once gave me a birthday cake decorated up like the Revolver album cover.. It had good taste and tasted good too...

*I got Revolver around 1972 or 73 & I remember thinking "why does John only have 2 songs on it.It wasn't until a few years later that I found out about the British versions of albums & what the U.S. did to Beatles albums.The U.S. version is okay but the British version is much better!!! I DIG IT !!!!! //oo\\
yes, i grew up with what we called the North American versions.
It was only later that i realized they were the 'corporate money making versions' and the British versions were actually the 'artist's' or The Beatles versions.
and yes, i agree the way The Beatles envisioned them are far more interesting, even though my youth doth protest at times....Followup Messages:
