COMMENTS
"The Beatles' Movie Medley" was the product of two different ideas. First and foremost, the single was designed to promote the new Capitol Beatles theme album, Reel Music, which contained 14 songs that had appeared in the group's five films. Second, Capitol hoped to cash in on the proven formula of stringing excerpts from several songs, all given the same beat, to form a disco-ready medley. For its medley of Beatles movie tunes, Capitol selected Magical Mystery Tour, All You Need Is Love, You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, I Should Have Known Better, A Hard Day's Night, Ticket To Ride and Get Back. The track was edited by John Palladino.

The single's flip side, Fab Four On Film, is described as "(THE BEATLES Talk About A Hard Day's Night - 1964)." The track features comments from the boys provided by the movie's producer, Walter Shenson, and edited by Randall Davis.
It had originally been recorded by United Artists in 1964 as part of an open-ended interview for DJs.
The Beatles' comments have been edited together into one running track. This interview segment has only been available on  the accompanying 45 promo single and the promotional 12"

These were issued only to media offices and radio stations in the US and were not sold in stores.
Designated "Not for Sale" on the labels and back of jacket.
All copies are pressed at Los Angeles plant.

The record was scheduled for release as Capitol B-5100 on March 15, 1982, but was withdrawn, reportedly over legal difficulties. Capitol replaced the interview with the mono version of I'm Happy Just To Dance With You, which was previously issued as the B side to Capitol 5234 on July 20, 1964. Although the song was featured in the movie A Hard Day's Night, it was not on the album Reel Music. The reconfigured single was released as Capitol B-5107 on March 22, 1982.
The replacement single, the name hand etched in the trail off area to the B side appears to be a script "gene".
Capitol did not prepare promotional labels for the replacement single.
