The Beatles - Help! - The Beatles. Help! is the fifth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles and the soundtrack to their film of the same name. It was released on 6 August 1965. Seven of the fourteen songs, including the singles ”Help!” and ”Ticket to Ride”, appeared in the film and took up the first side of the vinyl album. The second side included ”Yesterday”, the most-covered song ever written. The album was met with favorable critical reviews and topped both the British and the US charts. During the recording sessions for the album, the Beatles continued to explore the studio's multitracking capabilities to layer their sound. ”Yesterday” features a string quartet, the band's first 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 first seven songs with instrumental music from the film. The omitted tracks were instead spread across the Capitol Records LPs Beatles VI, Rubber Soul, and Yesterday and Today. Played and no issues.
