50th Anniversary of The Beatles' 'Red' and 'Blue' Albums: The Ultimate 'Greatest Hits' Collections.

TL;DR Summary
The Beatles' Red and Blue Albums, released 50 years ago, became the foundation of the band's legend and the most influential greatest-hits albums in history. Compiled by their manager Allen Klein, the albums were a huge part of securing the Beatles' legacy for future fans. Despite the ex-Beatles' silence and reports of their upset, the albums were absurdly generous and designed to turn curious listeners into lifelong fans. The Red and Blue Albums just kept selling better over the years, and finally came out on CD in 1993.
