15 ¦ All I've Gotta Do ¦ Beatles
These two have always gone together for me ever since I had a 4 track
tape from "Meet The Beatles" as a kid that had these 2 songs plus "All
My Loving" and "This Boy." Four track tapes did not last long. The
looked like mini 8 tracks and had 4 songs.

YES !!!!
Someone else that had a 4 track tape player. In fact, I still think I
may have a shitload of 4 track tapes in the attic, unless they've
melted by now. My 4 track tapes were full albums. Or custom made ones
that had as many songs as they could fit. You could switch to the other
side of the tape/album by flipping a switch lever.
Never had a 8 track. I went from my car 45 record player, to 4 track, to cassette.

Mine was not a car player. It was a portable player with a handle like cassette players looked like later. Maybe 10 inches by 6 inches. I also
had one from the White Album with 4 songs. One was "Savoy Truffle" and I think that the others were "Back In The USSR" and "Birthday" and "Mother Nature Son" which I did not like and never played.
This one below is an 8 track player, but it looks a lot like the 4 track player I had.

Here's the Roulette album

Okay, let's see what I can add here from my 1963 list.
3 ¦ It Won't Be Long ¦ Beatles
My favorite Beatles track from 1963.
15 ¦ All I've Gotta Do ¦ Beatles
These two have always gone together for me ever since I had a 4 track
tape from "Meet The Beatles" as a kid that had these 2 songs plus "All
My Loving" and "This Boy." Four track tapes did not last long. The
looked like mini 8 tracks and had 4 songs.
21 ¦ Winter Wonderland ¦ Darlene Love
From what is IMO BY FAR the greatest Christmas album. I agree with Roger
that "Sleigh Ride" is the best track, although most people consider "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" by Darlene Love as the best track. Probably partially due to it being an original song.
18 ¦ I Saw Her Standing There ¦ Beatles
22 ¦ Twist And Shout ¦ Beatles
Neither were on singles in the UK I think.
29 ¦ Get Back (Black, Brown And White) ¦ Big Bill Broonzy
May have been recorded earlier, Diane would know.
34 ¦ I'm Gonna Set My Foot Down ¦ Buddy Holly
Second best new track from him that year.
35 ¦ This Boy ¦ Beatles
Not a single here, but it was in Canada as well as the UK, where it was
the flip of "I Want To Hold Your Hand."
37 ¦ Downhearted ¦ B.B. King
This should have been mentioned on the 1963 unreleased list. It's
actually the best version of his famous "How Blue Can You Get" with a different title.
38 ¦ Long Gone Daddy ¦ Pat Cupp
This would have been here, but we both decided that it belongs in 1956.
63 ¦ Roll Over Beethoven ¦ Beatles
Charted here via a Canadian single as did "All My Loving." I believe
it's the only 2 cases of an imported single that was only an LP track
making the US charts. Nowadays songs do not have to be on a single to
chart.
65 ¦ What's Wrong ¦ Fats Domino
Second best newly released Fats track of the year after "Little Mama."
66 ¦ A Marshmallow World ¦ Darlene Love
There are more coming from this landmark album.
78 ¦ I Want You To Be Mine ¦ Flairs
Probably would fit better in the year it was recorded.
88 ¦ Here Comes Santa Claus ¦ Bob B. Sox & Blue Jeans
94 ¦ Parade Of The Wooden Soldiers ¦ Crystals
111 ¦ That's What You're Doing To Me ¦ Diablos
115 ¦ Frosty The Snowman ¦ Ronettes
132 ¦ Hot Nuts (part 4) ¦ Doug Clark & His Hot Nuts
141 ¦ Little Child ¦ Beatles
143 ¦ Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) ¦ Darlene Love
148 ¦ Misery ¦ Beatles
105 ¦ You Don't Have To Go ¦ Muddy Waters
149 ¦ Elevate Me Mama ¦ Muddy Waters
These might be unissued rather than album tracks.
159 ¦ Hawaii ¦ Beach Boys
161 ¦ Old McDonald ¦ Nolan Strong & Diablos

What year do you show this recorded?

As with nearly all their remakes I don't care for this one at all
78 ¦ I Want You To Be Mine ¦ Flairs

#105 for me and an 8. I agree it would be better in year of recording.
What year do you have?
111 ¦ That's What You're Doing To Me ¦ Diablos
Good track but I don't have it listed. What info do you have?
132 ¦ Hot Nuts (part 4) ¦ Doug Clark & His Hot Nuts
I don't have this listed either???
161 ¦ Old McDonald ¦ Nolan Strong & Diablos
Sorry but I dislike the song intensely in ANY version!! :)
