The Beatles "2" (Blank Frank Edition)
From 2012: One of these years, I think the surviving Beatles will get around to putting out their own version. Until that time comes here is my version of the "2" album. My criteria was that it had to fit on one CD and it must include the "B" sides of the "1" album and other singles that never made onto "1", using only UK and USA chart info, just like "1" did. Also, there can be no duplication from the "1" LP.
I did not include the Capitol Green Swirl 45s, such as "Boys" or "Kansas City" and to make it fit onto one CD, I had to leave out some of the US 45s from A Hard Days Night - I think those were released only because United Artists had the rights to the soundtrack album in the USA. These are @320 and tagged with original artwork.
So here goes, it uses only 2009 remastered versions. Notes on why I have included some songs are noted below. Thanks to A-1 for providing the inspiration for this post!

Tell em BF sent you.
Wonderful stuff...I love this site. Many thanks BF!
@ Binkerbo, everything posted on AYBCS was first posted on Faltonia, often years before. I re-opened AYBCS to give a home to these 'projects'.
@tsi&hrjs "1" is the famous single-disc CD from 2000. This compilation completes "1" with the other single sides not included in "1"
Thank you for your work...
Thank you Frank and BarrieB for answering me. I am not familiar with the history. It appears that faltonia is now a private members only site. I am very happy that Frank has started AYBCS. This is a great place for music lovers!

Shouting back up the chain a bit, here..."Hi Reggie! Been a while!" :)
Great construction, thanks for sharing it
Great stuff! Surprised Free As A Bird, which hit #2 in the UK, didn't make the cut.
Thanks much for keeping this link alive all this time! It's downloading now, and I'm stoked.
