I have waited years for the US soundtrack for a Hard Day's Night to come out on CD. I thought the quality of the disc was outstanding considering the age of the source material. I can think of some much newer recordings that sound poorer. Bear in mind that I was grew up with the Beatles. A Hard Day's Night occupies a special place in my memory. Just having it on CD was enough for me. Bottom line: If you really want this recording, I think you will be satisfied. Again, it was recorded in 1964.
