A vinyl edition was initially available only in the United Kingdom. The compilation was hugely successful, topping the album charts in more than 35 countries. It was the highest-selling album of the whole decade.
The album sold In the US, 1 charted at number one on the Billboard , with sales of more than , copies.

In it was the top seller in Austria and the USA. Four of the videos feature exclusive audio commentary or filmed introductions by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr.
The deluxe edition also includes a page hardback book. The promotional films were digitally restored from the original 35mm negatives scanned in 4K, with audio produced from the original analogue tapes by Giles Martin and Sam Okell at Abbey Road Studios. Personally, I would prefer a compilation with all their UK singles and B-sides.
I suppose now that most fans seem to have the box sets, compilations are not really necessary. At last. It was not a Number One. Well, Strawberry Fields and Revolution and Rain arent on it. Another exampple of Paul clinging to the Beatles and not giving the others much credit.
Revolution and Rain were b-sides though. The latter song should really have been on the album. If it was a general best-of and he had most of the tracks you may have had a point. Fair enough BUT you cant deny that Paul could be a show off. My mom thinks that The Beatles were made to represent Paul, that hes the leader. Jude was the Beatles biggest single i. It was also considered by some as something of a comeback for them after their Magical Mystery Tour television flop although the album went straight to No.
This is why many Beatle singles were in fact double A sides, with a song from Paul and a song from John. John has said himself that he was the leader originally. In , John started to get lazy and after Brian Epstein died in , he lost the will to keep going. Paul helped The Beatles pull through and he became the leader. Well, the Beatles were specifically asked about leadership at recorded press conferences.
Both Lennon and McCartney stated clearly the Beatles had no leader. It doesn't slander the attention it brought to the soon-to-be superstars. It doesn't alter the impression it made on British music fans in that nasty winter of And so, the tune that first launched Beatlemania is without a place on one of the best-selling albums in music history.
