DISCOVERY; I discovered this one in the bargain bin! At .99 cents who can resist a bargain eh? Look Ma, it was on sale! I'm not sure she was impressed but she did think the music was nicer than some of their other stuff. A mint copy of this now is worth $40.00 on a good day. Well... I didn't think much of it at the time. I was ready for something a bit edgier but I played it. I just imagined them doing something edgier and it sort of worked.

WHERE & WHEN; This was the third album that summer along with Help! and Rubber Soul. A trilogy of nice albums. Spent all my cash and that's why I went for the bargain. Doing a little research, it would appear I had the earlier version of Introducing with Love Me Do and PS I Love You. Everyone says, "Oh you should have hung onto those records!" Right... music collections, especially bulky record albums require stable living situations normally made possible by stable financial situations greatly enhanced by stable relationships and stable emotional landscapes. Which were all good at the time. I just needed to collect some more interesting albums.

HIGHLIGHTS; I Saw Her Standing There - Chains - Boys - Love Me Do - Baby It's You - Do You Want To Know A Secret - Twist and Shout

STATUS; All covered by an MP3 copy of Please Please Me
