The Beatles' Singles and Albums

The Beatles Singles and Albums

This page lists the singles released by the Beatles in the UK and U.S. In addition, the albums (in italics and highlighted in grey) released in the UK are spotlighted here. Until Sgt. Pepper’s, albums didn’t make it to the U.S. in the same form which they were released in the UK. When the albums were released on CD, the UK versions were released with non-album singles and B-sides gathered together on the Past Masters collection. The one exception is Magical Mystery Tour, which was released as an album in the U.S. but a double-EP in the UK. The EP reached #2 on the UK charts while the import album got to #31. Note: singles are listed in chronological order by the earliest date possible. That means that even though a song like “Got to Get You into My Life” was released as a single in 1976, it was initially released on the Revolver album so is listed there. Otherwise the dates listed for singles indicate the release date of the single.
