A Hard Day's Night is the third studio album by The Beatles and the soundtrack to their first feature film of the same name.

Packed with infectious melodies and timeless songwriting, it remains one of the defining albums of the British Invasion.

Pressing Notes

This UK One Box EMI pressing was manufactured between 1969 and 1971 on the Parlophone label, catalogue number PCS 3058. Identifiable by the distinctive single EMI box logo on the label, these pressings bridge the gap between the black and yellow Parlophone originals and the later two-box EMI issues. They retain the excellent analogue mastering of the period and are highly regarded by collectors for their superb sound quality and comparatively limited production.
