Past Masters is a two-disc compilation album set by the English rock band the Beatles. It was originally released as two separate volumes on 7 March 1988, as part of the first issue of the band`s catalogue on compact disc.[10] The album contains all songs released commercially by the band that were not available on the Beatles` 12 original UK albums or the US Magical Mystery Tour LP.[10][11] It was compiled by Beatles historian Mark Lewisohn, who also wrote the liner notes. The majority of the Past Masters set consists of A- and B-sides from the band`s singles, including single versions of songs that appeared in a different form on the band`s albums. Also included are the full contents of the UK-only Long Tall Sally EP, two German-language tracks, a song recorded for the American market, and a track released on a charity compilation album.[10]

Although Past Masters is not a studio album and is instead a compilation, it is considered to be the Beatles` 14th (and final) major release. This occurred when the Beatles` core catalog was standardized in 1987, followed by the official re-releases in 2009.[12]

Release history
Past Masters was originally issued as two separate CDs, Past Masters, Volume One and Past Masters, Volume Two, on 7 March 1988. The two volumes were included in The Beatles Box Set. A double LP set, titled Past Masters, Volumes One & Two (also titled simply Past Masters), was subsequently released in the US on 24 October 1988 and in the UK on 10 November 1988. Both volumes were also released as a double cassette bundle on 7 March 1988.

The double set was re-released on CD, titled simply Past Masters, on 9 September 2009, as part of the remastering of the original Beatles catalogue, and was included in The Beatles (The Original Studio Recordings) box set.[13] This release includes stereo mixes of both `From Me to You` and `Thank You Girl`, whereas the original 1988 issue contained the two tracks in mono. Mark Lewisohn`s name was removed from this reissue. The Beatles in Mono box set, released at the same time, includes the album Mono Masters, which contains a similar track list of dedicated mono mixes.

A remastered-for-vinyl version of the Past Masters double LP set was released on 12 November 2012
