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
