The 3 Lennon songs from the British "Revolver" appearing on U.S. "'Yesterday'...and Today" (note the pun) are "I'm Only Sleeping", "Dr. Robert", and "And Your Bird Can Sing" (not "She Said She Said", which uses both 4/4 and 3/4 time, apparently not con- sidered "conventional"). "Y & T" album has these songs: Drive My Car (on British "Rubber Soul"); I'm Only Sleeping (see above); Nowhere Man (Rubber Soul); Dr. Robert (see above); Yesterday (Help!, which does not have soundtrack instrumentals); Act Naturally (Help!). Begin side 2: And Your Bird Can Sing (see above); If I Needed Someone (Rubber Soul); We Can Work It Out (single); What Goes On (Rubber Soul); Day Tripper (flip side of "We Can Work It Out"). It was the last Capitol Beatles album to list preceding Beatles albums on the back. Capitol albums thru Revolver are generally repackings; use British to get better idea of chronological order of songs. A magazine article coming out around the time of Sgt. Pepper release was about the "new way-out Beatles" and noted the use of 3/4 and 4/4 within the same song (did not mention any song by name, but see above). But the Beatles had done just that in their arrangement of "A Taste of Honey"! ("Please Please Me" LP in Britain; "Introducing the Beatles" on VeeJay and "The Early Beatles" on Capitol in U.S.).
