Dont let the Monday blues get you, it is the season to be jolly although for some it is a time to work harder ;-) A Hard Days Night is the third studio album by English rock band the Beatles, released on 10 July 1964, with side one containing songs from the soundtrack to their film A Hard Days Night. The American version of the album was released two weeks earlier, on 26 June 1964 by United Artists Records, with a different track listing. This is the first Beatles album to be recorded entirely on four-track tape, allowing for good stereo mixes. In contrast to their first two albums, all 13 tracks on A Hard Days Night were written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, showcasing the development of the bands song-writing talents. The album contains some of their most famous songs, including the title track, with its distinct, instantly recognisable opening chord, and the previously released Cant Buy Me Love; both were transatlantic number-one singles for the band. The title of the album was the accidental creation of drummer Ringo Starr. According to Lennon in a 1980 interview with Playboy magazine: I was going home in the car and Dick Lester [director of the movie] suggested the title, Hard Days Night from something Ringo had said. I had used it in In His Own Write, but it was an off-the-cuff remark by Ringo. You know, one of those malapropisms. A Ringo-ism, where he said it not to be funny ... just said it. So Dick Lester said, We are going to use that title. In 2000, Q placed A Hard Days Night at number five in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever. In 2012, A Hard Days Night was voted 307th on Rolling Stone magazines list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) https://youtube/watch?v=PlDdcCzKjsc
