RICHARD NOLLER’S COMMENTS ABOUT HIS NEW BOOK:

The Beatles U.K. Albums On Tape Media. A Study Of The Beatles’ U.K. Albums Manufactured In The U.K. And Issued On Tape.

“This is my fourth book documenting all The Beatles ‘ releases manufactured and issued in the UK. This project began during lockdown, with much of the groundwork for these books done during this time. Over the past six years, I have been building on my knowledge and amassing the images (over a thousand) found in this volume. Many come from my own collection; others seem to be found in singular instances. Here, I have presented all The Beatles’ “Core” releases (plus “Oldies”) in all tape formats. Thus, this book offers the most complete Atlas of Beatles’ albums on Reel to Reel, 8 track tape and cassettes found in the UK. In addition are a few side trips, exploring cassette cases, equipment required to play them, Irish made cassettes, and Reel Tapes titles which never saw a UK release. This is a true smorgasbord of all Beatles tape Media from the UK. As you would expect, a full checklist is included to help you keep track of the tape media in your collection.

The book is A4 size, running to 364 pages, 1″ thick, around 2Kg on 130gsm high-quality photo book paper, which has a Smyth sewn binding, allowing fully opening withour ruining the spine. These books are privately published and have no ISBN number. They can only be bought from myself. There are no other outlets. This first print run is of just fifty copies. These will be individually numbered. Subsequent print runs will not be numbered.

There are copious images, showing boxes/cases, labels, leader tapes, contemporary reviews and more.

My last book covering The Beatles UK Export records has just been reviewed by the respected Record Collector Magazine (December 2026 issue), where it was given five stars! See: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/128159825193
