Aid! is the fifth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles and the soundtrack to their movie of the same name. It was released on 6 August 1965. Seven of the fourteen songs, including the singles "Assistance!" and "Ticket to Ride", appeared in the film and took upwards the first side of the vinyl album. The second side included "Yesterday", the nearly-covered song ever written.[3] The album was met with favourable critical reviews and topped the Australian, German, United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland and US charts.
During the recording sessions for the anthology, the Beatles continued to explore the studio's multitracking capabilities to layer their sound. "Yesterday" features a cord quartet, the band's start use of Baroque sensibilities, and "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" includes a flute section. In North America, the release was a true soundtrack album, combining the showtime seven songs with instrumental music from the movie. The omitted tracks were instead spread across the Capitol Records LPs Beatles Half dozen, Condom Soul and Yesterday and Today.
In the US, Assist! marked the start of creative recognition for the Beatles from mainstream critics, including comparisons to the European fine art music tradition. Information technology was nominated in the category of Anthology of the Year at the 1966 Grammys Awards, mark the first fourth dimension that a rock band had been recognised in this category. In 2000, it was voted 119th in the third edition of Colin Larkin'south book All Time Top 1000 Albums. In 2020, information technology was ranked 266th on Rolling Stone magazine'south list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Fourth dimension". In September 2013, after the British Phonographic Industry changed its sales award rules, Help! was certified platinum for recorded sales since 1994.[iv]
Music [edit]
The album includes Paul McCartney's "Yesterday", arranged for guitar and string quartet and recorded without the other grouping members. John Lennon'due south "You've Got to Hibernate Your Beloved Abroad" indicates the influence of Bob Dylan and includes flutes.
"Ticket to Ride", released as a single in April 1965, was felt by Lennon to be "heavy" in its sound compared to the group's previous output[5] and daring in its reference to a boy and girl living together. McCartney called the organization "quite radical". During the recording sessions for the album, the band used the studio'south multitracking capabilities to layer their sound. In this, author Mark Prendergast highlights George Harrison'south use of a volume pedal and incorporation of "more intricate chordal devices to enrich his guitar audio".[6]
Every bit a songwriter, Harrison contributed "I Need You" and "Y'all Similar Me Too Much". These were his offset compositions to be included on a Beatles album since "Don't Bother Me" on 1963's With the Beatles.
The record contained ii cover versions and a few tracks more closely related to the group's previous popular output, but even so marked a decisive step frontward.[ commendation needed ] The record sleeve-notation shows that Lennon and McCartney fabricated more than all-encompassing and prominent utilize of keyboards, previously played unobtrusively past Martin. Iv-rails overdubbing technology encouraged this. Lennon, for his function, made much greater use of acoustic guitar, forsaking his famous Rickenbacker.
The original LP'south format of featuring songs from the soundtrack on side ane and non-soundtrack songs on side two follows the format of A Hard Day'southward Dark.
When "Assist!" came out in '65, I was actually crying out for help. About people think it'due south just a fast rock-'n'-roll song. I didn't realize it at the time; I only wrote the song because I was deputed to write it for the movie … It was my fat Elvis flow.
John Lennon[7]
In after years, Lennon stated that the album'due south title runway was a sincere cry for help; he regretted changing it from a downbeat, piano-driven ballad to an uptempo pop song, which was done but every bit a result of commercial pressures.[eight]

Assist! was the band's final British album (aside from the belatedly 1966 compilation A Drove of Beatles Oldies) to characteristic whatever cover songs until 1970'due south Let It Be (which included a performance of the traditional folk song "Maggie Mae"). In 1966, Capitol would release "Act Naturally", already on the British Help! album, on Yesterday and Today. "Bad Boy" and "Empty-headed Miss Lizzy" (both written by Larry Williams and recorded on 10 May 1965, Williams' birthday) were both aimed at the American marketplace and originally not intended to announced on Assistance!, simply "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" ultimately did.[9] Both songs appeared on Beatles Half dozen, released in the United states of america in June 1965. "Bad Male child" was not released in the UK until A Collection of Beatles Oldies, and was that album's simply comprehend song.[10]
Outtakes [edit]
A few songs that were recorded and intended for the album and film were not used. Lennon and McCartney wrote "If You've Got Problem" for Ringo Starr to sing, but the Beatles were not satisfied with the song and it was abandoned, and Starr sang "Deed Naturally" instead.[xi] "That Ways a Lot" was written for the picture, merely once more, the Beatles were displeased with their recordings of the song and it was given to P.J. Proby who released it as a unmarried.[12] Lennon said "Yes Information technology Is" was "me trying a rewrite of 'This Boy', but it didn't work";[xiii] it was released as the B-side of "Ticket to Ride" and was as well issued on Beatles Half-dozen. "You Like Me Besides Much" and "Tell Me What You See" were turned down for use in the film by its director, Richard Lester, although they did appear on the album (and also on Beatles VI).[ citation needed ]
In June 1965, at the end of the Assistance! sessions, the song "Wait" was recorded for the anthology, but was left unfinished. The Beatles resurrected the rails and completed it for inclusion on Safety Soul in November, when a concluding song was needed to complete that anthology.
Album cover [edit]

The anthology cover shows the Beatles with their arms positioned to spell out a word in flag semaphore. Co-ordinate to cover photographer Robert Freeman, "I had the idea of semaphore spelling out the letters 'Assistance'. But when we came to do the shot, the arrangement of the arms with those messages didn't look good. So we decided to improvise and ended up with the best graphic positioning of the arms."[xiv]
On the UK Parlophone release, the messages formed past the Beatles appear to be "NUJV", whilst the slightly re-arranged Usa release on Capitol Records appeared to betoken the letters "NVUJ", with McCartney's left mitt pointing to the Capitol logo.[xv] The Capitol LP was issued in a "deluxe" gatefold sleeve with several photos from the motion-picture show and was priced $1 more than standard Capitol releases at the time.[ citation needed ]
Compact disc release [edit]
In that location take been 4 CD releases of Assistance! The kickoff was on xxx April 1987, using the 14-song Britain track line-up. Having been bachelor merely as an import in the US in the by, the original 14-rails U.k. version replaced the original The states version with its release on LP and cassette equally well on 21 July 1987. As with the CD release of the 1965 Rubber Soul album, the Help! CD featured a contemporary stereo digital remix of the album prepared by Martin in 1986. Martin had expressed concern to EMI over the original 1965 stereo mix, claiming it sounded "very woolly, and not at all what I thought should be a good issue". Martin went back to the original four-track tapes and remixed them for stereo.[16] I of the nigh notable changes is the echo added to "Dizzy Miss Lizzy", something that was not evident on the original mix of the LP.
When the anthology was originally released on CD in Canada, pressings were imported from other countries, and used the 1987 remix. However, when the Disque Améric and Cinram plants in Canada started pressing the album, the original 1965 stereo mix was used by mistake. This was the only source for the 1965 stereo mix in its entirety until the release of the mono box prepare in 2009.[17]
The 2009 remastered stereo CD was released on nine September. Information technology was "created from the original stereo digital master tapes from Martin'southward CD mixes made in 1986".[xviii] The original 1965 stereo mix was included as a bonus on the mono CD contained in The Beatles in Mono boxed set.
The 1965 stereo mix was reissued over again on the Help! CD contained in the Beatles collection The Japan Box released in 2014.
Critical reception [edit]
Contemporary reviews [edit]
Help! was some other worldwide commercial success for the Beatles.[19] Derek Johnson of the NME said that the LP "maintains the Beatles' usual high standards" and was a "gay, infectious romp which doesn't let up in pace or sparkle from start to terminate – with the exception of one slow rail".[xx] [21] Despite the band's introduction of new instrumentation into their sound, particularly a string quartet on "Yesterday", the reviewer too wrote of the album: "It's typical Beatles fabric, and offers very few surprises. Just then, who wants surprises from the Beatles?" While typical of the calorie-free and snappy pop music reviews at the fourth dimension, co-ordinate to music journalist Michael Halpin, these comments angered McCartney, who, like his bandmates, believed that artists should constantly develop through their work.[19]
In the The states, where the mainstream press had long focused on the Beatlemania miracle and had derided the group's music, as well as rock 'n' roll more often than not, the summer of 1965 coincided with the starting time examples of creative recognition for the Beatles from the country's cultural mainstream.[22] Among these endorsements, Richard Freed of The New York Times likened the band's songs to works from the European art music tradition. Adding to what he described every bit the Beatles' impact on "serious music", Freed cited musicologists and composers such every bit Leonard Bernstein and Abram Chasins equally admirers of the group's work.[23] Along with several nominations for "Yesterday",[24] Aid! was nominated in the category of Album of the Year at the 1966 Grammys Awards. The nomination marked the first time that a stone band had been recognised in this category.[25]

In his review of the Beatles' 1987 CD releases, for Rolling Stone mag, Steve Pond remarked on the "unstoppable momentum" evident in the ring'due south pre-Condom Soul albums and recommended Help! "for the relatively serenity and understated way in which they consolidated their strengths".[36] Writing in 2004 edition of The Rolling Stone Anthology Guide, Rob Sheffield says that the US version of Help! was "utterly ruined" through the replacement of the Beatles songs with the soundtrack music, and that, every bit a issue, the album remained relatively overlooked. He describes the total album every bit "a big footstep forrad" and "the starting time affiliate in the astounding creative takeoff the Beatles were just starting time".[37]
Mark Kemp of Paste considers it to be the equal of A Hard Twenty-four hours'southward Nighttime and cites "Help!", "Ticket to Ride" and "Human action Naturally" as highlights, along with Harrison's return as a songwriter. Kemp identifies "Yesterday" as "the album's masterpiece" and a vocal that "ready the stage for one of the near groundbreaking and innovative periods in The Beatles' career, not to mention pop music in general".[33] Neil McCormick of The Daily Telegraph says that the anthology evokes "a band in transition, shifting slightly uncomfortably from the popular thrills of Beatlemania to something more than mature", with Lennon's writing increasingly autobiographical and the grouping'south sound growing more sophisticated. McCormick concludes: "Assistance! may not be their greatest anthology, but it contains some of their greatest early songs."[30]
In 2000, Aid! was voted 119th in the third edition of Colin Larkin's book All Time Summit grand Albums.[38] In 2006, it was recognised every bit one of the "Most Significant Rock Albums" in the Greenwood Encyclopedia of Rock History.
