The Beatles Hard Day's Night [UK] Release Date: 1964 07 10 Label: Toshiba EMI A Hard Day's Night was the first Beatles album of all-original material, and the first to feature George Harrison playing his Rickenbacker electric 12-string guitar (on the opening chord of "A Hard Day's Night," for instance). The distinctive sound of the 12-string inspired countless guitarists including Roger McGuinn and David Crosby of the Byrds. The film from which these songs hail remains a classic combination of happy '60s naïveté and nascent hipster wit. Many of the most important rock bands to emerge in the latter half of the '60s came into being because of A Hard Day's Night's irresistible vibrancy. The tunes flow like the finest red wine, as the title track leads to the glorious harmonica of "I Should Have Known Better" and the powerfully poignant "If I Fell.", All Music Guide Tracks: Title Composer Time 1 Hard Day's Night [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] McCartney, Lennon 2:34 2 I Should Have Known Better [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] McCartney, Lennon 2:43 3 If I Fell [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] Lennon, McCartney 2:19 4 I'm Happy Just to Dance with You [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] Lennon, McCartney 1:56 5 And I Love Her [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] McCartney, Lennon 2:29 6 Tell Me Why [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] Lennon, McCartney 2:08 7 Can't Buy Me Love [from the Film "A Hard Day's Night"] McCartney, Lennon 2:11 8 Any Time at All McCartney, Lennon 2:11 9 I'll Cry Instead Lennon, McCartney 1:45 10 Things We Said Today Lennon, McCartney 2:35 11 When I Get Home McCartney, Lennon 2:16 12 You Can't Do That Lennon, McCartney 2:34 13 I'll Be Back McCartney, Lennon 2:26 14 Hard Day's Night Mini-Documentary [Multimedia] Releases: Year Type Label 2007 CD Toshiba EMI 1990 CD Capitol Records 2008 LP EMD Int'l 1990 CS Capitol Records
