Beatles Cover Albums

during the Beatle Period

As a companion to the Hollyridge Strings page, this page proposes to be a listing of (and commentary on) certain albums that were released in the United States between 1964 and April, 1970. Every album in this listing has a title that indicates Beatles-related content and/or a cover that is a parody of a Beatles album cover. In addition, the content of every album listed here is at least 50% Beatles-related (or, in the case of albums from 1964, "British"). Albums that are not included here include, for example, records named after a single Beatles song but which contain very little Beatle-related content: for example, Hey Jude, Hey Bing!, by Bing Crosby.

1964:

Nineteen-sixty-four saw the first wave of Beatles cover albums. The earliest of these were released before the release of "Can't Buy Me Love." They tended to be quickly-recorded records designed to capitalize rapidly on the group's expanding success. Therefore, most of these albums are on small record labels, and the records themselves tended to be loaded with "filler." Possibly, the companies were not aware of the majority of Beatle product.


Beattle Mash

  3. You Are the One
  4. Pea Jacket Hop

  6. Lookout for Charlie

The label not only spells "Beatle" correctly but also lists the artist as "The Schoolboys." The liner notes show that this album was released before the Beatles' trip to America in February, 1964.

This time, the front cover reads "The Schoolboys," but the label lists the artist as "The Moptops." Once again, the liner notes show that this album was released just before the Beatles' appearance on the Ed Sullivan show on February 9, 1964.

The above album contains no covered songs. However, many of the selections are about the Beatles. It appears that the original title (on the spine) was going to be "It's a Coo-Coo World." Then the Beatles' popularity caused them to change the title to It's a Beatle World. It could be the other way around, though, for the front cover has both -- reading "It's a Beatle World" with "Coo Coo" on top. The front cover features the artists dressed up with Beatle wigs.

Although there is no Beatles content on the album, its cover reads "Boston Soul" in large letters and is a parody of the Rubber Soul cover. The six songs performed on this album are done in the styles of Robert Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, William F. Buckley (Jr.), and Bob Dylan.

The Big Ben Banjo Band were not an in-house band. Instead, they were a British band that had been releasing banjo music for about ten years. Happy Banjos had been one of their most successful releases, so what could be better than combining their most popular title with the music of the Beatles?

The cover is a take-off of the Beatles cover and appears to have been shot in front of a club that was named after the album. "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!" and "Fixing a Hole," sometimes linked to illegal substances, are the only songs on the album that are not covered here.
