1965: “Beatles VI” was # 1 this week


beatles-vi-vinyl-front  
As we’ve posted before, every  pre-Sgt Pepper LP had different tracks or even titles in the US and the rest of the world.   We call them the American LP’s and were released  in a box set.    
It was always interesting to chat about The Beatles with someone from the UK.     We associated different songs with different LP’s!
Beatles VI” released in June 1965 is another example.    It included the single “Eight days a week” and the B-side “I don’t want to spoil the party“.    
It also included several other tunes found in “Beatles for sale“, such as “Every little thing” and “What you’re doing“.
Like everything else released by the group, “Beatles VI” hit # 1 this week in 1965.    However, it was not one of their best LP’s.
