January 8, 1966 –
The Beatles single We Can Work It Out reached No. 1 on the Billboard Charts. It was their 12th No. 1 hit.
The Beatles recorded this specifically for release as a single at two quick sessions while they were making the Rubber Soul album in October 1965. When it was released as a single backed with Day Tripper, debate raged over which was the A-side. Most pop groups put B-sides on their singles that were far inferior, but The Beatles often came out with 45s containing two great songs.
