Editing Introducing... The Beatles (section)

=== After Vee Jay license expired: ''The Early Beatles'', ''Rarities'' ===
From the start of Beatlemania in the United States until the October 1964 expiration of its rights to Beatles music, Vee-Jay issued four LP albums, four singles, and an EP out of the 16 tracks it gained from its 1963 license period.  On 22 March 1965, Capitol issued ''[[The Early Beatles]]'', which contains 11 of the 14 tracks that had previously been issued on ''Introducing... The Beatles''.{{sfn|Wallgren|1982|p=160}}  "[[Misery (Beatles song)|Misery]]" and "[[There's a Place]]", two of the other three songs, would not make their Capitol Records LP debut until 1980, on the US version of ''[[Rarities (1980 The Beatles album)|Rarities]]''.  The other ''Introducing...'' song was "I Saw Her Standing There", first released in the UK on the ''Please Please Me'' LP.  The song appeared in the US on both the Vee-Jay album as well as Capitol's ''Meet The Beatles!'' LP. These two albums marked the only time that two different Beatles' albums, each from a different record label, were released in the same month with one song appearing on both albums. There is a difference between the two tracks in that Paul's count-off is cut short on the Vee-Jay release by three numbers leaving only "four!" on the intro. Later, in the summer of 1964, Capitol would release ''[[Something New (Beatles album)|Something New]]'' in the United States with five songs that had already appeared on the American ''[[A Hard Day's Night (album)#The American release|A Hard Day's Night]]'' soundtrack album released by [[United Artists Records]] about one month earlier.

''Introducing... The Beatles'' has never been officially released on compact disc, although several unauthorized CD reproductions have circulated in both mono and stereo versions, mostly with the version two line-up (with "Please Please Me" and "Ask Me Why").{{Citation needed|date=November 2010}}
