PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.   OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week.   Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.   We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING:   USA ~ 1 LP = $4.00 Media Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.   All Canadian and Overseas shipping ~ eBay requires Priority shipping rates on any order $400+ ~ Also, in the best interest of all of us, safe Express shipping rates on any order totaling $500+       Discount shipping on multiple LPs in same order. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Because United Artists, who produced the film "A Hard Day's Night" had rights to the album, Capitol was prevented from issuing the soundtrack and calling "A Hard Day's Night". Instead, Capitol - who had stereo mixes of the tracks where United Artists didn't - came up with Something New. For Something New, Capitol used 8 tracks from the UK version of A Hard Day's Night along with "Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand" (a German recording of "I Want To Hold Your Hand") and the 2 tracks from the UK Long Tall Sally EP not issued on Meet The Beatles.

Something New is easily the best of the U.S. Capitol albums. It's light on smash hits, and that is it's greatest strength. What you wind up with, is a neat snapshot of how the boys were actually making it happen musically, beyond the hype. "Something New" may actually be better than its British counterpart. It skips all the filler and as a result, the album seems to flow better.

A little old style R'n'R (Slow Down), a nifty Ringo tune (Matchbox) stick to their roots, but they were already outgrowing their teen-scream phase & it shows in tunes like "I'll Cry Instead", "Things We Said Today" & "When I Get Home", where they start turning the standard pop structures around into new shapes. Add in some heavy folk overtones on the ballads & you'll hear they're setting the stage for their next revolutionary stage.
