Though the Capitol Rarities album was geared toward the American market, it was also issued in several other countries, including Australia, Canada, France, Japan and New Zealand. The Rarities album has not been released on compact disc, though all but three of the tracks are now available on other Beatles CDs, especially the Beatles' 2009 mono and stereo box sets. When the album was released Paul McCartney said it was "quite good".
