Help! album cover

Help!

6 August 1965ParlophoneUKGeorge Martin

Side one is the second Richard Lester film; side two includes ‘Yesterday’, recorded with a string quartet and no other Beatles. The semaphore cover does not spell H-E-L-P.

Territorial note

Capitol’s Help! soundtrack replaced non-film songs with Ken Thorne’s orchestral score, so US listeners first heard ‘I’ve Just Seen a Face’ and ‘It’s Only Love’ on Rubber Soul (US) instead.
