And don’t forget that the UK and German Past Masters LP was slightly different than the US Past Masters LP…

Past Masters was already released as a single collection when the vinyl version came out in November 1988, and obviously was released as a Double LP.

It is an interesting question SK. In my iTunes, my U.K. canonical order is not by recording date, but by release date of any Single, EP or LP the Beatles did. Hence my “Bad Boy” is on the 1966 Collection of Oldies LP.

But in the Beatles U.S. canonical order, on the “Beatles VI” Album, interestingly enough “Bad Boy” is song #4 while “Yes It Is”, is song #8.

So maybe that’s the reason?????

Bad Boy was released after Yes It Is (14 June vs. 9 April 1965), but why is it sorted before Yes It Is in this album?

I’m desperate for answers. http://www.reddit.com/r/beatles/comments/249t00/a_very_small_question_on_the_past_masters_album/

I am confused. There is no official Beatles single (or other) release of All Things Must Pass. This is a George Harrison solo. It can’t be on a Beatles collection.

Actually past masters is no greatest hits compilation, it features every song not included on the uk albums and magical mystery tour, most beatles fans know this, but it looks like you didn’t so now you know, peter goss
