The Beatles a fost o trupă rock engleză din Liverpool, care a influențat în mod fundamental dezvoltarea muzicii populare a anilor '60. Se numără printre cele mai de succes din punct de vedere comercial și cele mai apreciate de critici formații din istorie. Creația lor a cuprins stiluri de la rock'n'roll și pop la psihedelie, muzică beat și experimente cu elemente clasice.
Colecția box set 1964 US Albums in Mono, pe șapte discuri LP, publicată sub egida EMI, reunește versiunile americane originale ale albumelor Beatles din anul lor decisiv. Colecția include, printre altele, Meet The Beatles!, The Beatles' Second Album, coloana sonoră A Hard Day's Night, dublul album documentar The Beatles Story, Something New și Beatles '65. Aceste ediții se deosebeau de originalele britanice printr-o altă ordine a pieselor și o combinație diferită de înregistrări – adaptate pentru piața americană de casa de discuri Capitol Records. Printre piese se numără hituri clasice precum I Want To Hold Your Hand, She Loves You, A Hard Day's Night sau I Feel Fine, toate în mixajele mono originale.
La momentul înregistrărilor, trupa era formată din John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison și Ringo Starr.
