about

The Beatles’ six album was released in the UK on 3rd December, 1965. Only four months had elapsed since their previous album Help! and during that time they had a momentous tour of the US and Canada, including a record breaking concert for 55, 600 fans in Shea Stadium, New York. After resting for six weeks, The Beatles began sessions for an album planned to contain only self-composed material.

There were eleven songs from John and Paul, two from George and a song with the unique writing credit of Lennon-McCartney-Starkey for Ringo’s vocal spotlight ‘What Goes On’. They also recorded ‘Day Tripper’ and ‘We Can Work It Out’ at this time, which were issued on their eleventh Parlophone single on the same day that Rubber Soul was released. Their first double A-sided single and new album gave The Beatles the British number one single and album for the third consecutive Christmas. Rubber Soul stayed at the top for nine weeks of its 42 week stay in the album chart.

Robert Freeman’s stylish photographs had been featured on their album sleeves since the second LP With The Beatles. His distinctive cover shot for Rubber Soul came through a happy accident when he was projecting slides of his photos onto an LP-sized card. When the card fell back a little, The Beatles’ faces seemed slightly stretched and that was the image selected by the group. It is their first album not to feature the word Beatles on the front cover.

For t first time the USA release exactly duplicated the cover of a British Beatles LP but, as usual, Capitol Records altered the track listing. Two songs from the British version of Help! were added to ten of the tracks. The omitted four were eventually included on the album “Yesterday” ...And Today released six months later. The American version of Rubber Soul reached number one in the first week of January, 1966 and stayed at the top for six weeks. It had an impressive initial chart run of 51 weeks.
