===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
WHAT IS THE BEATLES SONG INDEX?
The Beatles Song Index provides information about the songs of the
Beatles. All songs the Beatles have recorded and published officially
were evaluated for the Beatles Song Index. The index was compiled as a
Windows help file and uses all features of the Windows help system
including hypertext function, keyword search, bookmarks and personal
annotations.
The following information is available as a rule for every song: song
composer, main vocalist, recording dates and places, producers and sound
engineers, running time, guest musicians, release date, highest UK chart
position for single and EP releases, recorded takes and a selection of
recorded cover versions by other artists.
The main points of the index are the songs. For example it does not
contain a complete discography of the Beatles releases. Taken into
account for the index are all the songs that were officially published in
the United Kingdom. Beyond this additional songs were taken into account
which were recorded during the "Get Back sessions" and were exclusively
published in the Let It Be film. You can also find songs which the
Beatles have written and given away to other artists but have never
recorded for themselves. Also included in the index are the "speech"
tracks avaiable on the " Live At The BBC "-album and the "Anthology"
albums. Some statistical evaluations of the song material round off the
functionality of the index.
The Beatles Song Index can answer the following questions for example:
Which songs were recorded on July 30th, 1963? Which songs have a
duration of 2'32? Which songs were recorded in London's Olympic Sound
Studios? Which Buddy Holly songs did the Beatles record? What was the
working title of "I Saw here Standing There"? Which was the highest chart
position of the All My Loving EP? On which songs did George Harrison sing
the lead voice? Is there a live version of "Help!" and on which album is
it available? Sidney Sax plays violin on several Beatles songs. On which
ones?
The evaluation copy contains only songs beginning with letters from
M-Z. The registered version contains all songs of course!
