The Beatles 1962-1966 - компиляция от Beatles, впервые изданная в 1973 году и получившая неофициальное название "Красный альбом". В нее вошли лучшие песни группы за период с 1962 по 1966 год. Участники коллектива принимали активное участие в создании сборника, начиная с выбора песен и заканчивая подбором фотографий для оформления обложки.

Специально ремастированное подарочное переиздание на двойном компакт-диске с 32-х страничным красочным буклетом и упаковке Cardboard Sleeve с 6-ти панельным разворотом, содержащим редкие документальные и фото-материалы, с текстами песен и комментариями Bill Flanagan'а. Произведено на образцовой по качеству изготовления легендарной германской Optimal Media ( ex-Hansa).

      *****
The Beatles, они же "великолепная четвёрка", они же "ливерпульская четвёрка" или просто "Битлы"  -  легендарная рок-группа, которая была создана в 1960 году. Несмотря на то, что квартет просуществовал только до 1970 года, имя группы стало известно каждому человеку на планете. В активе коллектива семь наград Грэмми, а каждый её член награждён Орденом Британской Империи. Известный журнал Rolling Stone создал список "500 величайших альбомов всех времен", где на первом месте разместилась работа Битлз "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band".
