Description

1967–1970 (widely known as "The Blue Album") is a compilation of songs by the English rock band the Beatles, spanning the years indicated in the title. It was originally released with 1962–1966 ("The Red Album"), in 1973 on black vinyl. 1967–1970 made number 1 on the American Billboard chart and number 2 on the British Album Chart. This album was re-released in September 1993 on CD, charting at number 4 in the United Kingdom. 1978 first blue vinyl release: Capitol SEBX-11843
The album was compiled by Beatles manager Allen Klein.Songs performed by the Beatles as solo artists were also considered for inclusion, but like the cover songs on 1962–1966, limited space resulted in this idea having to be abandoned.[citation needed]
As with 1962–1966, this compilation was produced by Apple/EMI at least partially in response to a bootleg collection titled Alpha Omega, which had been sold on television the previous year. Print advertising for the two records made a point of declaring them "the only authorized collection of the Beatles.
Track listing The single versions of "Get Back" and "Let It Be" make their album debuts in this compilation. All tracks written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney except where noted.
