The Beatles – Rock and Roll Music: Volume 1
Format: Vinyl
Label: EMI / Parlophone
Year: 1976
Pressing: First Pressing
Released in 1976, Rock and Roll Music: Volume 1 pulls together some of The Beatles’ most energetic early recordings — a powerful collection of covers and originals that showcase the band’s raw, pre-psychedelic edge. Issued as part of a two-volume set, this first pressing features tracks highlighting their love of American rock’n’roll and rhythm & blues.
Featuring classics like “Twist and Shout,” “Rock and Roll Music,” “Long Tall Sally,” “Slow Down,” and “Kansas City / Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey!,” the album captures the youthful intensity of The Beatles’ early years, driven by Lennon’s gritty vocals and McCartney’s high-octane delivery.
Notes: First pressing released by EMI/Parlophone in 1976 as part of the split reissue of the original Rock and Roll Music double album.
A great addition for Beatles collectors, especially those seeking early-era energy on vinyl.
