Revolver is the seventh studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. It was released on 5 August 1966 in the United Kingdom and three days later in the United States. The album marked a progression from their 1965 release Rubber Soul and signalled the band's arrival as studio innovators, a year before the seminal Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. On release, Revolver was widely recognised by critics as having redefined the parameters of popular music. The album's diverse influences and sounds include the incorporation of tape loops on the experimental "Tomorrow Never Knows", the use of a classical string octet on "Eleanor Rigby", and the Indian-music setting of "Love You To". Together with the children's novelty song "Yellow Submarine", "Eleanor Rigby" became an international hit when issued as a double A-side single.
The album's Grammy Award-winning cover design was created by Klaus Voormann, one of the Beatles' friends from their fledgling years in Hamburg. In the UK, Revolver???'??s 14 tracks were released to radio stations throughout July 1966, with the music signifying what author Ian MacDonald later described as "a radical new phase in the group's recording career".[1] The album spent 34 weeks on the UK Albums Chart, reaching the number one spot on 13 August.[2] Reduced to 11 songs for the North American market, Revolver was the last Beatles album to be subjected to Capitol Records' alteration of the band's intended running order and content. Its US release coincided with the Beatles' final concert tour and the controversy surrounding John Lennon's statement that the group had become "bigger than Jesus". In America, the album topped the Billboard Top LPs listings for six weeks.
Revolver was ranked first in Colin Larkin's book All-Time Top 1000 Albums and third in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.[3] A remastered CD of the album was released on 9 September 2009. In 2013, after the British Phonographic Industry had changed its sales award rules, Revolver was certified platinum. The album has been certified 5x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
