With the exception of Magical Mystery Tour, studio releases from Sgt. The first seven British Beatles albums were converted into ten LPs for the American market, adding material from singles and the UK EPs the band were unhappy with these reconfigurations. Prior to 1967, it was common practice for British releases to be reconfigured for the American market. The Beatles' international discography is more complicated due to different versions of their albums sometimes being released in other countries, particularly during their early years on Capitol Records in North America. This core catalogue contains all 219 tracks intended for commercial release, either as album tracks, EP tracks, or singles, that were put out by the Beatles from 1962 to 1970. The catalogue is currently distributed by Universal Music Enterprises' Calderstone Productions. Since then, other past releases have been reissued in digital formats and on vinyl. When the core catalogue was reissued in remastered editions in 2009, the two volumes of Past Masters were combined into one double album. With the first CD releases of their albums in 19, the Beatles' core catalogue was harmonised worldwide to encompass their 12 original UK studio albums, the 1967 US Magical Mystery Tour album and the newly assembled Past Masters: Volumes One and Two compilation albums consisting of all the studio recordings released during 1962 to 1970 that are not present on the UK studio albums or Magical Mystery Tour (mainly non-album singles, B-sides and EP tracks).
Their output also includes vault items, remixed mash-ups and anniversary box-sets. The early albums and singles released from 1962 to 1967 were originally on Parlophone, and their albums and singles from 1968 to 1970 were on their subsidiary label Apple. In their native United Kingdom, during their active existence as a band, they released 12 studio albums (including 1 double album), 1 compilation album, 13 EPs (including 1 double EP), and 22 singles (including 4 double A-sided singles). Worldwide, the English rock band the Beatles released 12 studio albums (17 in the US), 5 live albums, 51 compilation albums, 36 extended plays (EPs), 63 singles, 17 box sets, 22 video albums and 53 music videos.
