Greatest Hits Volume 2 (Beatles album) Greatest Hits Volume 2 (Beatles album) Greatest Hits Volume 2 is a greatest hits compilation album by The Beatles which was exclusive to Australia. The album was compiled by EMI Australia to fill in the gap between "Revolver" and "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". The compilation and its predecessor were both originally conceived in early 1966, when EMI Australia requested stereo tapes from their UK branch for tracks not already in the Australian vaults. This meant the album contains the original 1965 stereo mixes of "Day Tripper" and "We Can Work It Out" rather than the new stereo mixes
The Beatles (album) the Byrds. Edwin Faust of "Stylus Magazine" described "The Beatles" as "foremost an album about musical purity (as the album cover and title suggest). Whereas on prior Beatles albums, the band was getting into the habit of mixing several musical genres into a single song, on "The White Album" every song is faithful to its selected genre. The rock n' roll tracks are purely rock n' roll; the folk songs are purely folk; the surreal pop numbers are purely surreal pop; and the experimental piece is purely experimental." The only western instrument available to the group during their Indian visit
