The Beatles during My Favorite Decade (Albums)



While the group had officially broken up (Paul McCartney announced he was leaving the group) on April 10, 1970, the legendary group's selling power persisted in numerous compilations and reissues throughout the years 1976-85. What follows is an overview of the official US album releases during that time frame, not including various box sets (i.e., The Collection and The Beatles Collection). I owned none of the albums listed below; opting instead for the red and blue compilations while I was in junior high before beginning to purchase single albums while in high school, starting with Revolver.
