With their intellectual world of lyrics, memorable melodies, exquisite harmonies between the two, Paul's outstanding guitar playing, and perfect songwriting, they released one high-quality work after another, gaining worldwide popularity as one of America's leading duos and establishing an era. This work is their third original album, released in October 1966. It reached number 4 on the US charts. This is a representative early hit album that marked their first top 10 hit.
