The Beatles – Meet the Beatles! – Target Exclusive Opaque Blue 180 Gram Vinyl Record
Meet the Beatles! by The Beatles returns the landmark 1964 American album to vinyl in a Target-exclusive opaque blue pressing. Built around the opening impact of “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” the album introduced a broad American audience to the group’s original songwriting, close harmonies, and energetic ensemble playing. Together, that background explains where the release sits in The Beatles’s catalog and what gives this program its own musical identity.
The twelve-song program moves from exuberant singles to compact Lennon–McCartney originals, George Harrison’s “Don’t Bother Me,” and the group’s interpretation of “Till There Was You.” Hearing the selections in their intended order lets the opening statement, middle development, and closing material work together, while the complete track list below makes the contents clear before purchase.
This 2024 reissue is a 180-gram, 33 RPM, 12-inch LP cut from the original master tapes through an all-analog signal path and includes a four-page color insert with notes by Bruce Spizer. Those production and edition choices allow this vinyl edition to preserve both the complete musical program and the visual presentation created for the release.
It suits Beatles listeners seeking the U.S. Capitol sequence as well as vinyl collectors who want the retailer-exclusive color rather than a standard black pressing. It can serve as a first physical copy of the release or as a clearly differentiated addition for someone already collecting the artist, label, soundtrack, or retailer-exclusive series.
The record is pressed on opaque blue vinyl and packaged with the album jacket and four-page insert. Capitol released this Target-exclusive edition on November 22, 2024.
Brand new, never played and still sealed in the factory plastic
