Story & Background
"A Collection of Beatles Oldies" was a strategic release for Parlophone in December 1966, intended for the crucial British Christmas market in the absence of a new album of unreleased Beatles material, as they were at the time taking a well-deserved break after the exhausting tours and recordings of *Revolver*. The band itself had little involvement in the selection of tracks for this collection of hit singles. Its most fascinating peculiarity, and a real point of interest for the collector, was the inclusion of "Bad Boy" (sometimes erroneously cited as "Dizzy Miss Lizzy"). This vibrant Larry Williams cover, recorded on 10 May 1965, had previously only appeared on the American album *Beatles VI* and as the B-side of the single "Help!" in the United States. Its presence made this the first and only appearance of "Bad Boy" on a Beatles album in the United Kingdom, lending the compilation a touch of exclusivity in a discography otherwise dominated by already well-known singles.
