You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I think you mean Please Please Me. Those bastardized American albums don't count. | |

I know the difference and I like the Vee Jay version better. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

It was technically their second album (the Vee Jay one). | |

Not to Americans. I hate those Capitol albums but to some folks those are the real Beatles albums. | |

Well I can't come up with 10 right now but off the top of my head:
Usher Donell Jones - My Heart Soul For Real - Candy Rain After 7 112

Are you counting the album with The Beatles on one side and The Four Seasons on the other? You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Well then that wasn't even a Beatles album then. | |

No, it isn't.
