The Beatles – A Hard Day’s Night

A Hard Day’s Night is the third studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. In contrast to the Beatles’ first two albums, all 13 tracks on the album were written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, showcasing the development of their songwriting partnership. Here you will find the song “A Hard Day’s Night”, with its distinctive opening chord, and “Can’t Buy Me Love”, both transatlantic number-one singles for the band. Several of the songs feature George Harrison playing a Rickenbacker 12-string electric guitar, a sound that was influential on the Byrds and other groups in the folk rock movement. For many critics, that was the album that best captured the band’s early-career appeal, and in a way, opened the US market for fellow UK bands like The Rolling Stones, The Animals and The Kinks.
