219 The official Beatles’ canon covers all songs the Beatles recorded and authorized for publication in their years as a performing group. In those years between 1962 and 1970 the Beatles released 219 songs or song variants, which are listed below in order of appearance. In this list there are 24 covers (C), and 1 traditional (T), leaving us with up to 194 released recordings of original Beatles’ songs. Among those 194 we find 9 song variations and 1 song fragment. Of those 10 performances most authors of Beatles’ books and commentaries discard 7 tracks as just variants or invalid members of the Beatles’ songbook, leaving us with exactly 187 canonical Beatles’ originals, 24 covers and 1 traditional: a total of 212 songs.
