The Beatles‘ American albums originally compiled for US release between January 1964 and March 1965 are reissued on November 22 by Apple Corps Ltd./Capitol/UMe as The Beatles: 1964 U.S. Albums In Mono.

The albums’ new vinyl lacquers were cut by Kevin Reeves at Nashville’s East Iris Studios. Out of print on vinyl since 1995, the seven mono albums are available now for preorder in a new eight-LP box set, with six of the titles also available individually.

To celebrate the reissue of these albums, Uncut’s November 2024 issue digs deep into The Beatles’ momentous first visit to America in 1964 – and the mania that followed as the British Invasion took hold.

The Beatles: 1964 U.S. Albums In Mono box set can be pre-ordered here while the separate albums can be pre-ordered below.
