With the first CD releases of their albums in 1987 and 1988, the Beatles' core catalogue was harmonised worldwide to encompass their 12 original UK studio albums, the 1967 US Magical Mystery Tour album and the newly assembled Past Masters: Volumes One and Two compilation albums consisting of all the studio recordings released during 1962 to 1970 that are not present on the UK studio albums or Magical Mystery Tour (mainly non-album singles, B-sides and EP tracks). When the core catalogue was reissued in remastered editions in 2009, the two volumes of Past Masters were combined into one double album. Since then, other past releases have been reissued in digital formats and on vinyl. The catalogue is currently distributed by Universal Music Enterprises' Calderstone Productions. This core catalogue contains all 219 tracks[1] intended for commercial release, either as album tracks, EP tracks, or singles, that were put out by the Beatles from 1962 to 1970.[2]

The Beatles' international discography is more complicated due to different versions of their albums sometimes being released in other countries, particularly during their early years on Capitol Records in North America. Prior to 1967, it was common practice for British releases to be reconfigured for the American market. The first seven British Beatles albums were converted into ten LPs for the American market, adding material from singles and the UK EPs; the band were unhappy with these reconfigurations. With the exception of Magical Mystery Tour, studio releases from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band in 1967 forward were uniform in both the UK and the US. The band's first eight albums were released on Parlophone. From 1968, in both the UK and the US, starting with the single "Hey Jude" and the album The Beatles (better known as "the White Album"), new releases appeared on the Beatles' own Apple record label, although Parlophone and Capitol catalogue numbers continued to be used for contractual reasons.

The Beatles' discography was originally released on the vinyl format, with full-length long plays (LPs), shorter EPs and singles. Over the years, the collection has also been released on cassette, 8-track, compact disc (CD), on a USB flash drive in MP3 and 24-bit FLAC format, and on digital media streaming services. The Beatles' UK discography was first released on CD in 1987 and 1988. Between 1962 and 1968, the Beatles released their songs in both mono and stereo versions.[3] The band's catalogue was remastered in both mono and stereo in 2009.[4][5]

Notes

  1. The original release of "My Bonnie" was credited to "Tony Sheridan and the Beat Brothers".
  2. Tollie Records was a subsidiary of VeeJay
  3. The first pressings of Introducing... the Beatles included "Love Me Do" and "P.S. I Love You". After Capitol subsidiary Beechwood Music took legal action, the songs were replaced by "Ask Me Why" and "Please Please Me".
  4. This single was only released in select European territories.
  5. The single was intended for export, but some retailers sold it in the UK anyway. It did not chart there and is not considered an "official" UK single.
  6. Under the revised 1967 contract, Capitol agreed to release the unaltered UK versions of Beatles albums; these joint releases span both columns in this table. Capitol however continued to create additional albums from singles, EP tracks, and previously unused album tracks, specifically Magical Mystery Tour and Hey Jude.
  7. Billboard "Chart Beat" writer Fred Bronson affirms that "Come Together" and "Something" combined to hold the number-one position on the Hot 100, while another recognised author, Joel Whitburn, shows "Something" at number three, its highest position prior to the titles being combined halfway through the record's chart run.
  8. "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" and "With a Little Help from My Friends" were released as a medley on side A with "A Day in the Life" on the B-side. In some European countries, the B-side was "Within You Without You".[73]
  9. "Baby It's You" was released as a CD maxi single with the tracks "I'll Follow the Sun", "Devil in Her Heart" and "Boys". These live versions of "I'll Follow the Sun" and "Boys" were later released on On Air – Live at the BBC Volume 2.
  10. "Free as a Bird" was released as a CD maxi single with the additional tracks "I Saw Her Standing There" and "This Boy".
  11. "Real Love" was released as a CD maxi single with the additional tracks "Yellow Submarine" and "Here, There and Everywhere".
  12. This live version of "Baby's in Black" was later released on Live at the Hollywood Bowl.

Flexi discs

The Beatles released seven consecutive Christmas records on flexi disc for members of their UK and US fan clubs, from 1963 to 1969, ranging in length between 3:58 and 7:48. These short collections had a mix of spoken and musical messages for their official fan clubs.

Other appearances

The Beatles notably very rarely appear on compilation albums with other artists.

Pollack for his Notes on... series, as well as seven additional tracks that he did not separately identify because they were merely alternate versions of other songs (such as variations between the single version and the album version of the same track). It also includes the song fragment "Can You Take Me Back", found in the transition between "Cry Baby Cry" and "Revolution 9" on the White Album, which is often not counted by other catalogs of Beatles songs. Other notable catalogs of Beatles songs, such as Ian MacDonald's Revolution in the Head, differ from this list as well.
