"Beatles for Sale is the fourth studio album by the English rock band The Beatles, released on 4 December 1964 and produced by George Martin for Parlophone Beatles for Sale is the fourth studio album by the English rock band The Beatles, released on 4 December 1964 and produced by George Martin for Parlophone. The album marked a minor turning point in the evolution of the Lennon–McCartney partnership, John Lennon particularly now showing interest in composing songs of a more autobiographical nature. I'm a Loser shows Lennon for the first time coming under the influence of Bob Dylan, whom he met for the first time in New York while on tour, on 28 August 1964. Beatles for Sale did not produce a single for the UK – the non-album tracks I Feel Fine and She's a Woman performed that role. Nevertheless, that coupling was followed up in the United States by Eight Days a Week, which became their seventh number one in March 1965.The album hit the UK number one spot and retained that position for 11 of the 46 weeks that it spent in the Top 20. Beatles for Sale did not surface as a regular album in the US until 1987. In its place was Beatles '65 which featured eight songs from Beatles for Sale, plus the A and B-side of I Feel Fine and I'll Be Back from the UK's A Hard Day's Night album. Beatles '65 enjoyed a nine week run at the top of the US charts beginning in January 1965.. The album marked a minor turning point in the evolution of the Lennon–McCartney partnership, John Lennon particularly now showing interest in composing songs of a more autobiographical nature. I'm a Loser shows Lennon for the first time coming under the influence of Bob Dylan, whom he met for the first time in New York while on tour, on 28 August 1964.

Performed by The Jukebox

The Moptops second movie was a swinging London goof, but  the soundtrack included the classics "you've got to hide your love away" and "ticket to ride" as well as the lovely "I've just seen a face". Help didn't break new ground but it paves the way for the Beatles next stop Rubber Soul. The title track help remains one of the very most popular songs ever recorded by the Beatles, and at Abbey Road on the River, one notices that every time it is performed, audiences always stop to listen, dance, and appreciate. In fact, our office uses Help as a barometer of how good a band is when they submit audition tapes. Help and Beatles for sale will be performed together as one concert by Union Jack and Jukebox Saturday afternoon on the Riverview stage.
