With The Beatles is The Beatles’ second UK album, recorded four months after the band’s first album and released on 22 November 1963 on Parlophone in mono and stereo.

The album features eight original compositions (including the first by George Harrison) and six covers, mostly of Motown and R&B hits. Most of the songs from the album were released in the United States as Meet The Beatles! on 20 January 1964, and the remaining that were not, were released on their next U.S. album, The Beatles’ Second Album.

The LP had advance orders of a half million and sold another half million by September 1965 — making it the second album to sell a million copies in the UK (the first being the South Pacific soundtrack). It stayed at the top of the charts for 21 weeks, displacing Please Please Me, so that the Beatles occupied the top spot for 51 consecutive weeks. It even reached number eleven in the "singles charts" (because at the time UK charts counted all records sold, regardless of format). In 2003, the album was ranked number 420 on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

On 26 February 1987, With The Beatles was officially released on Compact disc, as were three other of the Beatles’ albums, Please Please Me, A Hard Day’s Night, and Beatles for Sale. Having been available only as an import in the US in the past, the album was also issued domestically in the US on LP and cassette on 21 July 1987. Along with all the other original UK studio albums, it will be rereleased on CD in newly remastered versions on 9 September 2009 in stereo and mono.
