Sorry for the thread jack, a very good idea.

No thread jack at all, I hoped we'd have discussion. And if there's enough interest in this, we can move to the song catalog next; I have 256 entry tournament already drawn and ready to go.
I probably should have said more clearly that the entrants were the 13 original
UK albums; using '65 or MEET THE BEATLES would have virtually duplicated BEATLES FOR SALE and WITH THE BEATLES. I picked 16 that were on CD. And yes, PAST MASTERS I and II are compilations, but not of the sort the 1962-66 or 1 are, since the tracks don't appear on other discs. I'm sure that neither of those will be around too long in this tourney; they are mainly taking up space in the first round!
You happened to pick the two instances where I thought the Capitol product was better than the UK rough equivilants. With the single "I Feel Fine/She's A Woman" included on '65 and "I Want To Hold Your Hand/This Boy", plus "I Saw Her Standing There" added to a lot of WTB, the fans here got a better running order on the albums.
