Songtrack 1962-63

The Beatles Songtrack 1962-63 is a Beatles compilation album compiled by C.Syde65. It was burnt in 2011. It is not an official Beatles album and thus can not be bought.

This 2-disc compilation album includes all 34 of The Beatles' songs recorded and released in 1962-63. This includes all the songs from their 1963 LPs - Please, Please Me and With the Beatles - along with the six tracks from the Past Masters compilation that were recorded and released the same years - excluding the German versions of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You", since it seemed pointless to include them.

Also the copy of "From Me to You" from The Beatles 1 was inserted rather than the copy from Past Masters which lacked the harmonicas at the beginning.

The "no pause between tracks" box was ticked, to prevent the Nero Express Essentials software from adding 2 second pauses between tracks, to free up more space on the CD - not that there was enough space to fit 16 and 18 songs on the first and second discs respectively anyway.

I actually could have fitted all the songs on to one disc, but I decided against it, seeing as I wanted to make it seem more like a double disc studio album than a single disc compilation album.
