It’s another day of finding gems in the archives, and this one is a gem involving The Beatles because as Penny, Sandy, Rose, Wendy, Fred, Jim, Mary Helen, and well, lots and lots of people have always old me, “You can’t go wrong with The Beatles.”
Back in the 1960s, it was a common practice for record labels to slap an often insignificant song on the flip side of a single they thought would do well in the charts. After all, it was the A-Side people were going to focus on so it didn’t make sense to waste a strong recording for the B-Side.

The Beatles changed all of that.

Their B-Sides were consistently outstanding; some of them were the equal of – if not better than – the A-Side. Today, that’s the focus of this medley. I’m not listing each song’s title but I am listing the names of the A-Side they were combined with. Hopefully that will pique your curiosity. 😉

By the way, I did not include Come Together/Something or Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever since both singles have long been considered to be Double A-Sides.
